The third Sunday of June marks Father’s Day, the day to celebrate our dads and show them our appreciation. This year, Father’s Day falls on June 17, which means it’s time for us to acknowledge and thank all the dads out there!

There’s a large group of caring dads in the Korean pop industry as well. Better known as “son-idiots” or “daughter-idiots” for their devotion and commitment to their children, these celebrity fathers have proudly expressed their unconditional love for their children in public.

In honor of all the famous fathers celebrating Father’s Day this year, we’ve rounded up some of the best-known dads in the Korean entertainment industry. Click through the list and make sure you say thank you to your dad too! (Please let us know if we missed anyone!)


Jang Dong Gun



After getting married to his long-time friend and star actress Go So Young in May, 2010, Jang Dong Gun got his first son Min Joon just five months later. Jang Dong Gun recently said in an interview, “Before having a child, I didn’t care if I was away from home for 5-6 months. But now, even if I’m away for a few days, my kid’s face keeps coming up in my head.” They haven’t revealed the face of Min Joon to the public yet, but from the looks of his parents, we’re pretty sure he’s born with the right genes!


Kwon Sang Woo



Kwon Sang Woo surprised many by announcing his marriage to Miss Korea-turned-actress Son Tae Young in 2008. The star couple gave birth to Rook Hee the following year, and the three have been spotted together several times by paparazzi photos. They are still one of the most popular celebrity families in Korea, and their every move continues to attract massive press attention. In February, Rook Hee’s 1st birthday photos were released to the public, and even though the photos were two years overdue, it made headlines on most local papers, proving their unceasing popularity.


Yang Hyun Suk



Yang Hyun Suk has one daughter and one son between him and his wife, Lee Eun Joo. After giving birth to their first daughter Yoo Jin in 2010, Yang Hyun Suk made a surprise announcement during the April 29 episode of SBS “K-Pop Star” that his second kid is a son. Later, during an interview with SBS “Healing Camp,” Yang Hyun Suk said that his son’s name is Seung Hyun and that he hopes him to be his successor for YG Entertainment’s leadership position.


Sean



Sean, the former rapper of YG Entertainment’s first hip hop duo, JinuSean, has now completely turned his career into a full time philanthropist, spreading and preaching the benefits of helping others. But he’s also well-known for his desire to have many children, as he already has four children with his wife Jung Hye Young. All four children have names related to God (with meanings of God’s Heart, God’s Love, God’s Law, and God’s Angel), and it may not take too long until we see their fifth child!


Tiger JK



Tiger JK is married to fellow rapper Tasha, and they have a son named Jordan between them. After giving birth to Jordan in 2008, Tiger JK released a single dedicated to his son, titled, “Congratulations,” which actually featured Jordan in the song. Recently, the family made an appearance on KBS “Win Win” recently and showed off Jordan’s freestyle and breaking skills, impressing many fans that are already anticipating the next best rapper in the making. It was also revealed that Jordan left a strong impression on Black Eyed Peas’ Will.I.AM at a concert in Korea. Who know, we might soon get to see Tiger JK collaborate with his son in his new album!

I saw the YG Family Concert...I wouldn't call Sean a former rapper just yet because JinuSean were doing it.

YG isn't tired of the name Seunghyun? They already have Big Seunghyun (TOP) and Little Seunghyun (Seungri) in YG...and I expect Seungri to be next at YG anyway LOL

I figured Seungri had both the personality, producing/marketing skills, and business savvy mind to be the next chief at YGE also...

MTE. Tablo is so cute.
I still remember when he was on Strong Heart and said he doesn't care if it's a girl or a boy but he'd prefer a boy because he didn't want his daughter to look so ugly as he does.
(I still don't understand why he thinks he's ugly)

While I think he's an awesome father, due to the whole controversy that happened, I'm pretty sure he never released photos of his kid. All the other guys mentioned in here had a photo of their child.

and if you notice, Jang Dong Gun didn't release a picture either

Oh you're right, he doesn't have his kid either. NVm then. Though if this was a popularity poll, it explains why he isn't on here. He's still recovering from that whole incident.Other than that I don't know why he isn't on it.

I thought of him, and then I immediately felt like a creeper. With everything that's happened, I know he wants foremost to keep her safe.

Sean is still a rapper of the YG family!!! He's just not active at the moment.

Anyway, wow, YG, seriously, like there isn't enough of "Seung Hyun"'s in the YG family hahahaha

OP, there is a Tiger JK tag; it's under his stage/artist name "Drunken Tiger": http://omonatheydidnt.livejournal.com/tag/drunken%20tiger It was a name more prominent in his early-mid 2000s career. (commence the feeling of oldness...now D:)

PARK MYUNGSOO FTW

The only guy I would add to this list is Park Myungsoo. He wouldn't be on here since he's no idol or big actor, but he's a great MC/comedian.

Image (http://photobucket.com)

I recall on one variety show (or maybe it was WGM season 1?) where the MCs brought up his new baby girl, Min Suh. They put Myungsoo's face on top of hers and were speculating what a female Myungsoo would look like. (Not nice btw)

Image (http://photobucket.com)

I was surprised when Myungsoo stopped them and very seriously told them to lay off and not make jokes about his little girl. I gained so much respect for him to not only defend her but to do it openly while everyone was joking and having fun. That was an intimidating situation, and for his first reaction to be to stop any laughter concerning his daughter is admirable and makes him a great father in my opinion. :D

If Sean is a full time philanthropist, how does he makes a living?

i'm not familiar with his relationships, but is that a typo for long-term girl friend? coz this part of the article makes it sounds like he got his homegirl knocked up and had a shotgun wedding.
