Actor Song Joongki’s reaction to overseas fans mentioning Song Hyekyo’s name is making headlines.
Recently, a video of Song Joongki greeting fans on the street during an overseas schedule spread through online communities and social media.
In the video, Song Joongki, dressed casually in a gray sweatshirt and black cap, was waiting on the road with staff members when he greeted the fans he ran into with a bright expression.
However, the mood shifted when one Chinese fan asked, “Who is that?” and another person explained, “He’s the one who used to be married to Song Hyekyo.” Hearing this, Song Joongki furrowed his brow for a moment and his expression stiffened, but he quickly relaxed and went back to greeting the local fans.
Netizens reacted to the video with comments like, “That’s so rude,” “Celebrities aren’t NPCs, let’s have some manners,” “It’s not wrong so he can’t even get mad... but it must’ve felt bad,” and “That must be so exhausting.”
Meanwhile, Song Joongki married Song Hyekyo, his co-star from the 2016 drama ‘Descendants of the Sun,’ in October 2017. However, the two divorced in July 2019, two years after the wedding. He later remarried British former actress Katy Louise Saunders in January 2023 and welcomed a son in June of the same year. In November 2024, he welcomed his second child, a daughter, becoming a father of two.
