Former 9MUSES member Keum Jo and musical actor Baek Ki Bum recently shared a new set of maternity photos ahead of the arrival of their first child.

On July 9, Keum Jo posted the photos on her Instagram, where she and her husband could be seen smiling together as she proudly showed off her baby bump. Alongside the pictures, she revealed that the couple had chosen Jo Eun as their baby’s name.
However, the name was apparently not selected on its own. Keum Jo explained that she and Baek Ki Bum had planned for two children from the moment they decided to start a family. They have therefore already chosen Jo Bo Hwa as the name of their future second child. The names create an affectionate play on the Korean expression keum-eun-bohwa (금은보화), meaning “gold, silver, and treasure.”
Keum Jo and Baek Ki Bum, whose real name is Jo Sung Jae, married in September 2022 after meeting while appearing in the musical 6 O’Clock Off Work. The couple announced Keum Jo’s pregnancy in February 2026, nearly four years after their wedding. They are currently expecting their first child in August.
