Unfounded pregnancy rumors have surfaced online about retired figure skater Kim Yuna.

Kim attended a beauty brand photo call event at Lotte Department Store's Avenuel in Jamsil, Songpa-gu, Seoul, on Monday.

After the event, online attention turned to Kim's appearance. Some users commented that her face and arms looked fuller than before, and the speculation quickly escalated — without any basis — into pregnancy rumors.

In response, a representative for her husband, Ko Woo-rim of the vocal group Forestella, addressed the claims Tuesday, telling OSEN: "There is nothing we are aware of" regarding a pregnancy.

Kim and Ko first met at the "All That Skate Ice Show" in 2018 and began dating. After about three years together, they married in October 2022. Ko completed his mandatory military service and was discharged in May last year, and the couple has recently been sharing glimpses of their daily life together, showing their enduring affection.
