Son Dam Bi couldn’t hold back her tears as she met her newborn daughter, Haei, for the first time in her maternity vlog. On May 23, the YouTube channel “Dambi Son” shared the emotional moment when Son Dam Bi, who gave birth via cesarean section on March 11, was introduced to her daughter — and immediately noted how much she resembled her husband, Lee Kyu Hyuk.

In a heartwarming update, Son Dam Bi opened up about becoming a mother and shared her most personal moment yet — the first time she held her daughter Haei, affectionately nicknamed Dabongi during pregnancy. The vlog documented her journey into motherhood, capturing her vulnerability and joy in real time.

Right after giving birth, Son Dam Bi expressed her excitement and curiosity. “I’ve only seen pictures, and my brother (Lee Kyu Hyuk) looks like her. I think she will be even more beautiful in person,” she said. However, the emotional floodgates truly opened when she met her daughter face-to-face for the first time.

Tears streamed down her face as she held Haei in her arms, saying, “She looks exactly like her brother. I was very surprised. She looks exactly like him — but I gave birth to her.” Her candid reaction reflected the intense mix of shock, wonder, and maternal love that often accompanies this life-changing moment.

Lee Kyu Hyuk, who was behind the camera capturing the moment, couldn’t hide his emotions either. As he filmed his wife and daughter, he, too, broke down in tears, overwhelmed by the arrival of their first child.

Trying to describe the surreal experience, Son Dam Bi jokingly added, “If you look at that, it looks like a daughter, but if you look at her face, it looks like a son — there’s Lee Kyu Hyuk in there! What’s going on!”

This vlog entry offered fans an intimate window into the star’s new chapter, marked by laughter, tears, and love. The raw honesty of her reaction and the obvious closeness with her husband painted a vivid portrait of a couple adjusting to parenthood together — overwhelmed, awed, and already adoring their little girl.

The vlog beautifully captures how new motherhood blurs the line between shock and joy. Son Dam Bi’s mixture of disbelief and affection — especially as she recognizes her husband in her child’s face — makes the moment all the more touching. It’s a reminder of how raw and real this phase of life can be, even for celebrities.
