Actor Song Joong-ki (41) was captured making a displeased facial expression after hearing the name of his ex-wife, actress Song Hye-kyo (44).
Recently, a video showing Song Joong-ki encountering local fans on an overseas street has spread across social media.
In the video, Song Joong-ki appears in a relaxed outfit consisting of a baseball cap, sweatshirt, and jeans. He put his hands in his pockets and greeted fans who recognized him.
At one point, when a Chinese person in the crowd asked, "Who is he?", someone nearby answered, "The person who married Song Hye-kyo." Upon hearing this, Song Joong-ki frowned, showing signs of discomfort.
However, when another fan greeted him and requested a photo, he immediately smiled.
Chinese netizens reacted with comments such as, "It seems Song Joong-ki understood the Chinese and got upset," "Who would be happy if someone brought up their ex-wife's name at close range?" and "That was rude."
Meanwhile, Song Joong-ki and Song Hye-kyo formed a connection through the KBS 2TV drama "Descendants of the Sun," which aired in 2016, developed into a real-life romantic relationship, and married in 2017, but divorced in 2019.
Subsequently, Song Joong-ki remarried Katie Louise Saunders, a British actress, in 2023. The couple has one son and one daughter.
