January...

We would like to announce the arrival of a daughter, Yasmin Yun Jung Di Canio Boulter weighing in at 3.05kg and, in Korean eyes at least, looking like her father, poor lass! You will note that like her mother, she seems to sleep a lot...

Yasmin - a Persian name after the winter flowering jasmine - our winter flower;

Yun Jung - meaning ‘sincere and peaceful’ in Korean, apparently highly auspicious names for the time and date of birth, and chosen by So Young’s family;

Di Canio - in the hope that it will inspire her to be a unique, passionate and creative individual, capable of bringing a little magic into the world.
