G-Dragon to Become Uncle to a Niece as Kwon Da Mi Shares Pregnancy News

G-Dragon is set to become an uncle to a niece after his older sister, fashion designer Kwon Da Mi, shared that she and actor Kim Min Jun are expecting their second child. According to KpopStarz, the couple is preparing to welcome a baby girl in October, adding a new chapter to one of Korean entertainment’s most closely watched celebrity families.

Kwon announced the news through social media on July 9, posting an ultrasound image and introducing the baby with the affectionate nickname “Samdeunie,” described as the younger sibling of the couple’s son, Eden. The announcement was warm and personal rather than promotional, centering on the family’s excitement as they prepare for a daughter.

In her post, Kwon said the baby came to the family after Eden had wished for a younger sister. She also revealed the child’s name, Kim Yi Woo, and joked about becoming a “girl mom.” Looking ahead to the due date, she expressed a simple hope that everyone would stay healthy until they meet in October.

The news carries extra public interest because Kwon is the sister of BIGBANG member G-Dragon, one of K-pop’s most influential artists. While G-Dragon’s professional life often dominates headlines, family updates involving his sister, brother-in-law, and nephew have also drawn attention from fans who follow the more personal side of his life.

A Growing Celebrity Family

Kwon Da Mi and Kim Min Jun married in October 2019 and welcomed their first child, Eden, in 2022. With the expected arrival of Yi Woo, the couple will become parents to both a son and a daughter. The update also means G-Dragon, whose real name is Kwon Ji Yong, will now be an uncle to a niece as well as a nephew.

Kim Min Jun has previously offered glimpses into the family dynamic during television appearances. Earlier this year, he shared that G-Dragon had gifted Eden a miniature electric car that had once been used as a music video prop. After Kim posted a photo of the gift, fans quickly recognized the item, turning a private family gesture into a widely discussed entertainment story.

That anecdote helped reinforce the image of G-Dragon as a doting uncle, a contrast to the carefully styled public persona he carries on stage and in fashion circles. For longtime fans, moments like these offer a different view of an artist whose career has often been framed by performance, design, and cultural influence.

Kim has also spoken with humor about joining G-Dragon’s family through marriage. On TV Chosun’s “Baekban Journey With Heo Young Man,” he reportedly joked that he had once imagined giving spending money to a younger brother-in-law before military service, only to realize that the scenario did not quite apply when the brother-in-law was G-Dragon. The story was lighthearted, but it showed how public curiosity can follow even ordinary family relationships when a global star is involved.

Why Fans Are Paying Attention

The pregnancy announcement arrives during a busy year for G-Dragon, who has continued to remain visible in music, fashion, and global pop culture conversations. KpopStarz noted his appearance at the 2026 Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival, a reminder that his public profile remains broad even as BIGBANG’s activities and individual member projects continue to draw interest.

Still, this particular update is not about a comeback schedule or a chart milestone. Its appeal lies in its intimacy. Kwon’s announcement focused on family health, Eden’s wish for a younger sister, and the anticipation of meeting Yi Woo in October. That kind of personal news often resonates with fans because it feels removed from the competitive pace of the entertainment industry.

For K-pop audiences, celebrity family stories can be delicate territory. Fans may be curious, but the subject is ultimately a private family milestone. In this case, the news became public because Kwon herself chose to share it, and the coverage has largely centered on her words, the couple’s growing family, and G-Dragon’s new role as uncle to a niece.

As October approaches, attention will likely remain on Kwon Da Mi and Kim Min Jun’s updates if they decide to share more. For now, the confirmed news is straightforward: the couple is expecting a daughter, Eden is set to become a big brother, and G-Dragon’s family circle is getting a little bigger.
