C-netizens Raise Eyebrow to Song Joong Ki’s First Post Divorce Sighting Wearing a Green Hat

I’m just happy to see Song Joong Ki out and about but I certainly also did a double take and made a flying leap connection when I saw new pictures of him this week. His sageuk drama Arthdal Chronicles is coming back next weekend for season 3 but all the promos were done earlier in the summer for the first two seasons so I don’t think either he or the cast will be regrouping for more activities. Hence seeing him “in the wild” so to speak at a group dinner is nice, and the media is noting that he looks healthy and is smiling happily in some pics. What the Chinese fans and media noticed first, though, was his bright green cap. Of all the colors and of all the items of clothing/accessory, picking a green hat is just….I don’t know. The slang/euphemism for being a man being cuckholded is “to wear a green hat” Literally, that’s the phrase. And it only applies to husband’s with a cheating wife, not the other way around. I certainly hope Song Joong Ki randomly pulled a green cap from his closet and is not trying to send a message or shade someone.

  • Well...He is wearing it happily and proud...Keller it probably doesn't hold the same meaning on Korea than in Chinese. My middle school color were green and gold, with so many Chinese as students, there was No way the promotion gown and hat will be green so we used gold color for the cap and gown...That was when I found out what green hat meant..Since all our school logo was green and it didn't make sense for us to wear hello or fold really....lol

  • Its a cap....he looks happy...Song Hye Kyo is glowing....just two people who are better off apart than together....good luck to both...things happen, you gotta move ahead.

    • I read on another website there's also comment about he smoke. I wonder how do people know that from the picture? (Just in case you get the wrong idea, I'm not doubting you. I genuinely curious because none of my family members smoke).

      • Just look at his lips. I just google him sjk smoking and yes i saw pictures of him smoking. Hope he stops.

      • Because it upis a health issue. Even once you quit you can get asthma or worse Hubby and I both have I asthma now. Some people die from smoking caused asthma. It is no joke. Some folks worry for others health. I think it is kind of them to care.

  • Funny I am reading this now and actually understand the meaning of the green cap from just a day ago. Lol

  • This saying doesn't exist in Korea. Unless SJK purposefully went out of his way to apply a Chinese saying, idk if this is reading wayyy too much into a simple fashion choice. He looks great in green, and I'm sure he knows it too.

  • Who knows what happened but to me it looks like he was the one who got wronged. He looks like he went thru a bad time. Meanwhile the ex wife is glowing and living it up. She's being very quiet and dignified because she knows she's the one who destroyed the marriage. That's how it looks like. I could be wrong.
    Not a fan of both and could never understand why their drama DOTS was so popular. The second leads were so much better.

    • You're not a fan yet you talk like you know SHK well. Did you even see how she looked like since early this year? The problem had been going on for so many months before they got divorced. So what if she looks good these days. Anything wrong with SHK wanting to move on with her life?

    • And this isn't the first time..she had two other high profile relationships but she was also quiet when they broke up.

      • Is it true she had relationships with all her costars? She's very good at keeping it private. Kudos. I liked her in TWTWB. She played a blind character and didn't have to emote much. Perfect role for her. It's smart of her to pick roles where she plays repressed characters like in Encounter and TWTWB. Her acting range is very limited. She carried E . PBG was awful with his cheshire smiles. She had better chemistry with the actor who played her ex husband.

      • @Jana Having three public relationships is considered a lot for someone who's been in the industry for over 20 years? Actors have more relationships than her but of course no one bats an eyelid coz oppas can do no wrong, right? And judging by your comment, I can see that you're incapable of seeing things objectively because you've already planted a certain image of her in your mind so everything I say is useless.

        Btw, she had a few dating rumours which she and her agency already clarified. But if you choose not to believe that, then there's nothing I can do. It's easy to say and spread negative things when it's not about your own fav. :)

        Your username looks familiar..must be the same Jana who was bashing SHK months ago. No drama comeback from your fav yet? :)

  • He looks great and only wish him the best and he finds the happiness he deserves after a difficult time for him.

  • He does not look happy at all. He also looks exhausted.

    I don't think he didn't know what it means in china, but it was his own decision to make.

    Just becasuse it's over he could be still in a lot of pain. If he want to show his feelings let him be. He might needs more time to cope.

    It's much healthier than smiling and pretend to the world that everything is fine, I'm over it.

    • Agree, his brother had studied Chinese and would have shared with him some significant Chinese idioms, practices and superstitions. Also, green is hardly a common color for caps by men, Westerners too, who tend to choose black, blue or white. If SJK had chosen khaki green instead, eyebrows wouldn’t had raised ?

    • Yes, that's what made me think he got wronged. He looks like he's been in pain while SHK looks like her marriage and divorce never happened. It makes her look so cold and hard.

      • What an interesting way of judging people you have there. In case you don't know..once a relationship is over for SHK, it's over. No turning back. No dwelling on the past. She's moved on. Since Feb, she'd been talking about focusing on herself. Even moved out of her own house early this year. But of course you don't know any of those coz you're not a fan.

        And why would she feel sad over the end of an unhappy marriage? Why would she feel sad over someone who decided to bypass her when they mutually agreed to get a divorce? Just because she looks happy and glowing these days doesn't mean she wasn't sad a few months ago. Different people, different ways of coping with problems or difficulties. Never assume we are all the same.

      • LOL...seriously...did you expect SHK to look horrible in public appearance just because she got divorce....she is not someone who like to gain sympathy like certain someone and claimed being hurt to public...she kept it herself like she did in past...

  • He clearly suffered from the divorce. Oh how I wish SHK getting outed having affair while still married, I bet she will never recovered from the scandals , and she will never able to do another romatic roles without getting backlash. But knowing how much power she had thanks to her powerful sponsors, her affairs will never be in the news. Just like her other relationship except 2 public relationship that she allowed to be outed. Every body knew she dated Kang Dong Won and Rain and some of her other co stars as well.

    • you really know a lot about her...hmmm...if you are right about her dating all her co star...she must be damn gorgeous...
      and talking about her having sponsor...wow...you are superb...but if she really has sponsor she might can't date anyone aside of her 'sponsor'...right? I am confused...your words about her seems twisted, purposely negative, copying stupid rumors online..ahahaha...
      I know you are angry that your "OPPA" being hurt...but there are also rumors about him cheating too...so what made you assured that she is the one who cheated...
      gosh!
