Lee Hyun-yong, who was raising one daughter, became a family with four children after conceiving and giving birth to triplets. Although they lived and worked together in Busan, worried about raising four children, both the parents and spouse readily suggested living together with the grandparents, and now eight family members live together, a rare large family these days.


The couple said, “We had many worries until the birth, and now it is difficult as we cannot get proper sleep day by day, but seeing the little lives grow differently every day makes us happy. We were worried about our two-year-old eldest daughter, but after finishing daycare, she runs to take care of the babies first, which gives us relief, and we are thankful and reassured that the whole family is raising them together.”


President Kang said, “I am very happy about the joyous news of the triplets’ birth, and it is even more delightful and proud to see a large family living together with children, parents, and grandparents after a long time. I hope they raise the four children, including the triplets, well.”



Choi Jong-ok, head of the Women and Family Division, said, “We sincerely congratulate the birth of the triplets. The city is also making efforts to prepare new policies for large families.”
