[Sportschosun Reporter Jo Min-jeong] German broadcaster Daniel Lindemann shared his joy after revealing the sex of his unborn child at a gender-reveal party.
On the 24th, Daniel posted a video on his SNS along with the message, "We tried a gender reveal too~ Did you guess correctly?"
The video showed Daniel and his wife carrying out the gender-reveal event with excited anticipation. In the clip, Daniel is smiling brightly while holding a pink balloon.

Earlier, Daniel had announced the pregnancy himself through SNS on the 23rd. He shared a surprise video prepared by his wife, saying, "Everyone, I'm going to be a dad." After returning home from being out, Daniel learned that his wife was pregnant, collapsed to the floor in tears, and hugged her tightly, showing his overwhelming emotions and drawing many congratulations.

Netizens reacted with comments such as, "He's already a total daughter dad," "Tori, stay healthy and come safely," "Daniel looks so happy," and "Congratulations from the bottom of my heart."
