Actor Shim Hyung-tak and his wife Hirai Saya are making headlines for celebrating their first son Haru's first birthday with a simple home party instead of a lavish hotel event.
On the 19th, Hirai Saya posted several photos along with a message celebrating Haru's first birthday on her social media. She shared that it was a birthday party with his dad and their dog Gimbap, expressing her hope for him to grow up healthy. She also mentioned that they successfully completed the birthday celebration and would share more details through the show "The Return of Superman."
In the released photos, Shim Hyung-tak and Hirai Saya are seen celebrating their son's first birthday with a homemade cake in their lovingly decorated living room. In contrast to the extravagant hotel birthday parties that have been trending in the entertainment industry, the warm atmosphere of family bonding captured attention.
This approach has received a great response from netizens. Positive reactions are pouring in regarding their choice of a home party focused on the child and family rather than a flashy event, with comments like "a truly conceptual family," "much more heartfelt and wonderful than a luxurious hotel," and "the thoughtfulness for the child is palpable."
Shim Hyung-tak and Hirai Saya received many blessings for their cross-border love, having registered their marriage in 2022 and held their wedding ceremonies in Korea and Japan in 2023. The couple, who welcomed their first son Haru in January last year, is currently sharing their parenting life candidly on the KBS2 variety show "The Return of Superman."
Choosing simple happiness over extravagance, the Shim couple's birthday party story is set to be revealed soon through a broadcast, resonating deeply with the public once again.
