The last time Song Joong-ki and Song Hye-kyo were spotted together was during the recording of the extras for the DVD version of Descendants of the Sun .
We must wait and watch if Song Joong-ki and Song Hye-kyo will come together holding hands just like they did at Baeksang awards.
Fans went berserk when a beautiful Song Hye-kyo, dressed like a princess, was escorted by Song Joong-ki who played Prince Charming. Much to the delight of the fans who want them to take their on-screen romance offline, the couple walked hand-in-hand and posed for photographs.
Nonetheless, both Song Joong-ki and Song Hye-kyo have always denied rumors that they are seeing each other.
On the sets of Descendants of the Sun , the couple shared a spectacular chemistry. Both of these co-stars were gracious and have only good things to say about each other.
According to a report by Couch Kimchi , Song Joong-ki, in an earlier interview said the following about his co-star.
“I felt really happy to be able to film together with Korea’s most beautiful actress. Everyone thinks it’s because of her outward appearance that she became famous, but after working together, I realized her inner heart and personality are also good. Moreover, she has lots of acting experience and I actually did learn a lot from her.”
Song Hye-kyo responded in kind.
“When I first read the script, I thought that this drama’s success depended on how the lead actor plays his part and he made it possible. Song Joong-ki played his role so attractively that it even made my heart flutter. That led to the unexpected response from the viewers,” Song Hye-kyo added.
Song Joong-ki recently told Soompi that even if he were in a relationship, he will make sure he keeps it under wraps.
“I have no plans to go public if I get into a relationship. I will do my best to safeguard the privacy of the person I love and respect her feelings. I may also want to keep the [relationship] a secret,” said Song Joong-ki.
Meanwhile, the hashtag #SongSongcouple has been trending on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram even after the military romance concluded in April.
