On December 2, during the production event for the romantic comedy, Gong Min Jung revealed, "I am currently pregnant, and childbirth is just around the corner," leaving the audience in shock.

Gong Min Jung then took the microphone and surprised everyone, saying, "Just like my character, I am currently pregnant and expecting soon."

She went on to explain, “After announcing my marriage, I found out I was pregnant, and it made choosing new projects a bit tricky. Originally, my character in Sorry Not Sorry wasn’t pregnant, but the production team kindly changed the role for me.”

The actress shared her deep connection to her character, Choi Hana, saying, "I really empathized with her, and adding the pregnancy aspect made me feel like I could truly represent the experiences of a mother. That’s when I decided to join the project."

She ended her announcement by thanking everyone for their support, saying, "Thanks to everyone’s consideration, I’m filming in a stable and enjoyable environment. Although this is a sudden announcement, I hope you’ll see it positively."

Gong Min Jung plays alongside Jeon So Min, who stars as Ji Song Yi in Sorry Not Sorry. The drama follows Ji Song Yi, a single woman facing tough times after a breakup, dealing with a mortgage and balancing multiple jobs.

The drama also stars Jang Hee Ryung, Choi Daniel, and Kim Moo Jin. Sorry Not Sorry premieres on December 5, airing every Thursday at 9 PM.
