Park's agency announced in September 2013 that the couple is expecting their first child. On March 23, 2014 she gave birth to their daughter.

Controversy

In 2004 Han became involved in a draft-dodging scandal after investigations revealed that he and fellow actors Song Seung-heon and Jang Hyuk paid a broker ₩200-300 million to help them fail the medical exam and avoid mandatory military service. Amid widespread public condemnation, their exemptions were reversed and they enlisted that year, then were eventually discharged in 2006.
