Actor Song Joong Ki‘s reaction to hearing remarks from overseas fans while walking down the street has become a hot topic.
A video showing Song Joong Ki greeting fans he encountered on the street was recently uploaded to social media.
In the video, Song Joong Ki is dressed casually in a gray sweatshirt and black cap, standing on the street with his staff. He is seen greeting fans who recognize him.
During this moment, a Chinese passerby asked, “Who is that?” to which another person responded, “The person who was married to Song Hye Kyo,” catching public attention. Upon hearing this, Song Joong Ki briefly scowled, visibly displeased, but quickly smoothed his expression and resumed greeting the local fans.
Netizens who saw the video reacted with comments such as “That must have felt really bad,” “Celebrities aren’t NPCs—let’s show some basic courtesy,” “It’s technically not false, so he couldn’t even express his anger… but it must have been upsetting,” and “Living like that must be exhausting.”
Meanwhile, Song Joong Ki married Song Hye Kyo—his co-star in the 2016 drama Descendants of the Sun—in October 2017, but the couple divorced two years later in July 2019. Song Joong Ki subsequently married British former actress Katy Louise Saunders in 2023, and the couple has a son and a daughter.
