He expressed a desire for his children to inherit their mother's linguistic abilities, as she is fluent in multiple languages, including English, Spanish, Italian, and French. Song Joong-ki mentioned that he admires her dedication to learning Korean and hopes their children will also develop strong language skills, enhancing their quality of life.
