Song Joong-ki and Song Hye-kyo are some of the biggest names in Hallyu. The two celebs, known for their extensive filmography, fell in love when they were filming their 2016 K-drama, Descendants Of The Sun. Eventually, they decided to get married in 2017, only to part ways on an ugly note in 2019. Ever since their divorce, Joong-ki and Hye-kyo have never been seen under the same roof.

Song Joong-ki stirs up an old controversy
As Song Joong-ki graced the 60th Baeksang Arts Awards, an old controversy surrounding the actor stirred up again. While he was posing for the cameras, Joong-ki struck the cheek-heart pose, which is a common pose that Hallyu celebrities often make when they pose for the cameras. However, Song Joong-ki had earlier refused to strike the same pose during the premiere event of his last drama, Reborn Rich, despite being requested several times by the media. Seeing him striking the same pose at the Baeksang Awards made netizens furious and they started criticising him for the same.
Song Joong-ki and Song Hye-kyo’s respective personal life
For those who don’t know, Song Joong-ki has married again. He tied the knot with former British actress, Katie Louise Saunders in 2023, and the two have even welcomed their first child in the same year. Meanwhile, Song Hye-kyo has been single ever since she parted ways from Joong-ki.
