Recent weeks there has been two housing related news stories surrounding K-actress Song Hye Kyo. The first was last month when Song Joong Ki‘s house was torn down to be rebuilt and K-ent said that was the house he bought before the marriage to Song Hye Kyo intending to be their newlywed house except the two never moved in. Now comes another news story that Song Hye Kyo had listed an expensive house in Seoul for sale. Both stories were refuted by the respective sides at the time and with respect to Song Hye Kyo selling a house it was apparently listed a year ago and only recently found out by a newspaper where the article made it seem it was just being marketed for sale. I do agree that anything she does is immediately fodder to be sensationalized but it’s hard to blame the media because she’s just a magnet for attention plus her last three years personal life was straight out of a K-drama level intense.
So I suggest keeping expectations low for this drama, despite the fan love for the…

This is the give and take of the fame. She is defining actress of last 2 decades from k drama land, pan asia popularity, and it brought her millions of dollars in various cf deals, including being the face of biggest cosmetics brand. She owns a lot of real estate among celebs.
But this compromised her real life privacy. You can't have it all.
Song Hye Kyo's agency is so good at refuting rumours and defending her as a good agency should be. And on the other side we have Song Joong Ki who didn't defend Park Bo Gum when he was unwillingly added to the mix when the divorce news broke out. If not as a friend, but as a person from the same agency he could have put a word in.
You’re so ridiculous. Maybe something happened to their friendship and etc early on. If I was park bo gum I wouldn’t agree to star in encounter, the kissing scenes were so heavy. The scenes were so steamy that people hope it wouldn’t cause anything despite fans “thinking and believing” they were good friends.
You can spin it around and say if park bo gum was a good friend, he would had stepped up and supported sjk during his divorce publicly. So prob their friendship was already damaged long ago.
You want to smear sjk? Well who was the one who committed tax fraud twice and blamed her accountant? Your accusation of him being a bad friend is nothing compared to her of being a criminal.
During the filming of encounter, it was obvious that the couple was on the brink of separation. It was just a matter of time. I think they just waited to complete it before announcing it. SJK never even waited for his drama to end to divorce his wife, he was in a hurry. Looking back, I completely understand the kissing scenes. They broke up already by then.
@chi wow..I know you must be sjk fan but mentioning shk as a bratty princess is too much..do you know her personally? I you don't know, there were some rumors before Sjk became popular..he was not so nice person..and shk? I never heard about her being bratty..ever..
@kdramaaddict looks like SJK is not in good relationship with CTH either
@chi sjk better not marry with an actress then. LBY have a hot kiss with LJS too, she even showing it to jisung and they were still fine. Don't blaming others for your bias childish behaviour.
@ forever romantic
That’s possibly true. Still it’s all speculation. We don’t know when they officially broke up, or when they 100 percent gave up on reconciliation. We don’t know when they were offered the drama and when they accepted it. It’s just time insensitive, and them working together gave fodder for people to use it again at them. It indicated how steamy the scenes are.
@ tiani
It’s completely different scenario. Are they all good and close friends the three of them? Were they married when I can hear your voice came out? It’s
Childish behavior? Everything is just speculations. Shk is an adult? The one who stole from the government? The one who wanted to keep more money to herself?
Get help. I think your relic brain has more holes than Swiss cheese. Keep on tolerating your scam Queen whose acting is just showing a pretty face for the most part.
@Tiani
LBY and Ji Sung weren’t married when I Hear Your Voice came out. And since they’ve been married LBY has been careful with her roles. I notice that she no longer stars in romance driven plot centric roles, but goes for thrillers like Mother and Whisper. I’m not saying happily married couples can’t film romantic scenes, look at Jang Hyuk, he’s able to do so and is still married. I just think that it’s a bad idea to agree to film hot and heavy scenes with your best friend’s wife. And if said wife knows she’s having issues with her spouse, then agreeing to film those scenes may be further rocking an already unstable boat. If the husband had issues with that, I wouldn’t blame him. Always remember, that before they are actors and professionals; they are first of all, human.
@adal
Thank you, finally a well-thought out and sane comment.
@chi @adal wow really? Did you check LBY next drama? She is so ready with another Mello romance. And what about JJH, LMJ? LBY and Jisung married 1 month after her drama end. Jisung absolutely don't have problem with that.
So SHK cant do drama with sjk bestfriend? First PBG is not SJK's bestfriend, and PBG already asking SJK before he take this drama. CTH said before in his interview whenever PBG take any drama he always asking his senior first. Second if you asking SHK to not taking any drama with SJK friend then she was doomed, because SJK has many friends, duh.
Maybe because the rumours about shk and pbg were true. The rumors about their affair didn't pop out after their divorce. Those rumors were doing round months before their announce his divorce. There was blind item about them and sjk fallout with his agency because they wanted to bury the scandal about her affair with bg, it also mentioned about sjk and shk divorce . Ironically everything mentioned in that blind item which was doing round since Jan of 2019 turn out to be true. Their both got divorce, there were also rumors about sjk and kov as mentioned in that blind item and finally sjk moved out his agency. Sjk announce his divorce during his drama. He was confident of his stand if he was guilty here I doubt he would File for divorce first. He had nothing to lose here.
https://images.app.goo.gl/mcsw5So9ZbBAyM1z7 blind item.
@mulan oh dear, how about you just go and support your oppa drama, don't waste your time for something like this.
Aigoo..I can't believe that you consider that useless rumors are true..why pbg want to have affair with shk.. I want to say something really harsh but yeah..I think it will be useless esp to people like you..
Say whatever you want. But can't deny the fact that this blind item is close to what we have seen so far. Be it their divorce which no one saw coming, sjk moving out of his agency where he was one of the major shareholders, or rumors about him and kov.
UAA did the right thing since netizens were blaming SHK for the teardown of SJK's house.
The fact that some netizens really wanted SHK to be guilty of something really amuses me. She never spent a day in SJK's house but they went around acting like he tore it down coz he didn't wanna be reminded of her. And when his agency was contacted, they said they couldn't confirm coz it's his personal life. Who can blame UAA for wanting to dispel the confusion?
It does seem like they want her to be guilty. There are many strange things about what happened between the two of them. As far as the reference to the Encounter scenes both are actors this is their job. You are basically saying he couldn’t handle it. Not sure about that. But will agree he did kind of serve Park Bo Gum up on a silver platter. Her agency is doing their job and for the most part she handles it with class.
Doesn’t matter if it’s a job or not but it’s considered being insensitive esp if you’re “close” friends. There’s millions of projects out there to accept, but why did shk and park bo gum feel the need to accept encounter?
Acting or not, the spouse/lover would feel uncomfortable esp if it’s their “close friend.” That’s a huge insensitive project to accept. Both shk and park bo gum were dumb to accept the role.
Park bo gum and sjk friendship were prob not so good anymore pre-encounter and during encounter.
I think if there's someone ridiculous here, it's you @Chi on. Encounter was a drama, they are both actors, amd if it was the reason for SJK to walk out, then he's a wuss. Why? They are actors. It was a job.
The one that handled the divorce thing with absolute class was SHK, whether you agree or not. SKJs actions from when he filed actually hurt him, his popularity and how people see him. I'm not a fan of any of them, but my sympathy went straight to SHK. I keep thinking his action looked very much like vindictive, aimed intentionally to hurt her. But whether it's true or not, we would never know. I can only judge by his actions, and his actions lacked sensitivity. And he's a man, previously married to her.
So yes, you're ridiculous alright.
@mindy
Maybe you’re naive but being an actor does not mean you can do whatever you want and your partner will be okay with it. Maybe if more actors are sensitive to their love ones, perhaps there would be less divorces. So yes selecting work is important and their partner well-being should be considered.
What a fake, if you weren’t a fan of one of them, you wouldn’t frequent their articles on this website. For someone’s who is hurt, his acting career sure is taking a hit, with three movies on the way and a sequel to AC.
LOL you judge his actions, I’ll judge her actions. She stay quiet, why? She’s most likely the guilty party. And if she’s the one that harmed him, he had the right to be vindicated. We all watched enough revenge dramas to know what should be done.
And she has record against her, if she could con the government, what else is she capable of.
Don’t give up and get help. Critical thinking skills and morals can be developed.
@mindy
Agree with every word you said
Although, I do not like over-sensationalising a situation or matter. However, sadly, this is the price of fame. You can't have it all.
Anything happens, i will always support Song Hye Kyo.
@agnes
Shows what a delulu you are. She already robbed the government and blamed her accountant. What next, she stabs someone and you’ll still support her?
Get help, I’ll schedule your therapy online appointment for next Monday.
@Chi You seem to have prob with her fans supporting her. Instead of trying to schedule online therapy for other people, you should get one for yourself first.
@ nad
Yes I have problems with people who embrace arrogance and greed.
It’s a shame your moral compass is broken. Oh by the way, the therapist gave me a handful of coupons for all the referrals. You can have ten of them. 50 percent off for every session. You’re welcome LOL
@Chi Then you should have a problem with SJK too. He married her, didn't he? Even went as far as praising her good deeds. :)
"It's a shame your moral compass is broken."
Yeah, I'm sure yours is still fully functioning. ;)
@ nad
Love makes people blind to their partner flaws. In her case, flaws the size of mountains.
Thank you, my moral compass is functioning splendidly :) Yours fortunately isn’t beyond repair, so work hard. Fighting!
@Chi So that's you defence? Love makes people blind? So your love for him makes you blind too?
Mine is working just fine. But don't worry, I'll let you know when it's not.
@ nad
It’s a common human flaw, I’m not making it up. You can search online about psychological articles about people love blinding them from seeing their flaws.
It’s so different, I can drop him if he commit crimes. You shk hug her even harder after her tax scams.
That’s clear evidence you’re a delulu and your moral compass is severely damaged. But it’s not too late, seek treatment. The earlier the better LOL
@Chi Tough to prove things that don't happen yet, isn't it?
I commented about her tax issue before but you chose to ignore it. As a fan, I've never regarded my fav as someone with no flaws. She made a mistake and she apologized. Did it erase all her good deeds? No.
Well, at least I don't go around calling people fake, hypocrite etc. What about you? You judge people you don't personally know. What kind of moral principles did you learn?
@Chi Fine by me. She already apologized and owned up to her mistake. What more can a fan ask for?
Boasting about your morals now, aren't you? Cute! Lol
@Chi
I don't have to admit anything. I'm sure you're used to it. You dragged SHK first before. So yeah, pot calling the kettle black.
Nomad? I think I can guess what type of person I'm dealing with here. Lol
Love all her new shots. She is so stunning.
Thanks @Mindy for your post. Am a fan of SHL. You are right, SHK handled it well while SJK proved he was so immature and so unprofessional, ungentlemanly even. He handled it badly. SHK was so quiet, she was an epitome of a decent, classy woman.I admire her. I can see how hurt she was, after the Encounter wrapped up, she went to Thailand for a break, you can see in her photos how sad and lonely she was but she remained quiet.
@forever romantic
How rich they shk fans used this article as a venue to bash sjk and flatter their reverse robin-hood Queen.
What a delulu monster LOL Your decent and classy woman robbed from the people. It was such a chess mate move where sjk threaten her if she opened her mouth, things about her will be reveal. Of course the guilty party will stay silent.
SJK wasn’t hurt by the incident? Most lies spread by shk fans got proven false overtime.
Get help and Grow genuine morals .
Funny how some SJK fans keep using his words to accuse her of being the guilty party. Fact is the divorce only took 5 mins to be completed. Fact is SHK had decided to sue those who slandered her. Even the one who spread nasty rumors retracted what he said.
For someone who didn't want his ex-wife to reveal anything regarding their marriage, he surely has no problem being linked to her since Feb. What a joke!
@nad
On both sides they were slandered. So your point doesn’t make her the innocent party of the divorce. He kept it private as long as she kept quiet. Nice try but no delulu.
Not mentioning her is one of the best way stay unlinked: let rumors true or false fly away. If you truly don’t care, you don’t bother about the rumors and ignore it.
You’re the joke for embracing an arrogant, thieving person. It shows your delusions have no bounds.
@Chi Why would I stay quiet and let my fav be dragged by those who think SHK did something wrong to SJK hence why he decided to tear down his house? Why would I stay quiet when I know that she never spent a day in his house? Why would I let anyone get away with tarnishing her name when the truth is they lived in her house after the marriage? Why would I stay quiet when the other party didn't even bother to clarify? Even K-media were blaming his agency for their vague statement. Lol
@ nad
It’s because you’re lord delulu. It doesn’t matter if logic is there, you’ll just ignore it. And you’re more than happy when sjk gets dragged and slander when you know it isn’t true. Hypocrite, I wouldn’t be surprise if you don’t know how to wash your hands properly because your brain is barely functioning independently.
He’s smart to ignore and let karma bite her. He owes her no clarification and no defense.
@Chi What logic? Care to tell me? And how about you? Do you not ignore what I've been trying to tell you?
@ nad
Oh there you go again, deflect and spin. If you choose not to read all my responses to you and chew on it thoughtfully, it’s not my fault. I try. You’re just upset, mostly at yourself. I can’t help those who don’t want to help themselves. It’s like a man drowning and I toss you a life savior but you decide not to grab it LOL
@Chi Lol you love avoiding my questions by saying all those irrelevant things. So whaf if I'm delulu, fake, hypocrite..you still haven't answered my question.
@ nad
Stop playing dumb, I responded to all your questions. It’s good you acknowledged you’re a fake, delulu hypocrite. Honesty is first step to recovery LOL
@Chi Too many posts to go through. It'd be easier for you to tell me which logic you were referring to.
Praising me for my honesty while excusing SJK for not being 100% 'honest' sounds kinda weird, doesn't it?
'Honestly is first step to recovery'..I know someone who needs this line. :D
Hi @Chi you should see this video before you blame them dumb to accept the role. Go to youtube and search 07 Encounter Press Conference(English)
That is Song Joong Ki who advises Bo Gum is not under too much stress, should enjoying filming. Now, Joong Ki fan scolds Hye Kyo and Bo Gum because they want to make a good drama by a focus on acting. If because that reason they divorced, I think it is good for her. His word and his action is different. Look like he is a man with two faces.
We all never know, that's their business.
When facing difficulty, you can clearly see someone's true color by the way they solve the problem.
SJK is so fake and u believe him?? PBG took advantage although romancing with an older woman is not that fun. SHK is still pretty. So who is the loser here?
@janechelsea
Nice try but no LOL There are many times people don’t like certain events in private but they try their best to accept it and it shows how awesome he is to express it support publicly.
Most of you shk rabid fans are ignoring your Queen true colors. Her stealing money that would had help go towards infrastructure and other government funded programs in Korea.
I think you left your brain outside in the desert for too long, it dried up.
I can't help thinking why SJK didn't clarify the rumors himself. It's been weeks. Even when his agency was contacted, they said no confirmation could be made because it's his personal life. You're divorced..why would you still wanna be attached to your ex-wife? Especially with something that has nothing to do with her at all.
It is because he leeches on her money. He has gained and then lost most of the CFs because of the divorce. He is all about her money.
Lol how would a fake article would help him anyway?
@nad
Great, it shows he’s indifferent about her. Why help her clear up when she’s being a nuisance. He no longer cares when she’s mentioned in the news even if they’re related to him. Sjk keep on living a good life and ignore all the immoral haters, keep on working hard and take breaks when needed. You owe her nothing. You done good enough by not exposing her actions during your marriage. Just continue remaining true to yourself.
You seem to know a lot, Chi. Mind telling me about what she did during the marriage?
And how is SHK a nuisance when she hasn't said a word about him? How is she a nuisance when she hasn't done anything to him? If you wanna accuse someone of being a nuisance, it's him. The house belongs to him, she didn't even live there and yet netizens were blaming her as if she was the reason of its demolition. She keeps being dragged into his business..the business that should have nothing to do with her anymore.
@ nad
I’m not a fly unlike you who feed on your fake queen manure. Her accepting a project that allows more steamy scenes than most dramas with her husband close friend is already a red flag. So insensitive. And it lead many to think there were something going on between her and park bo gum, because of how passionate the scenes were. It lead to lots of ruminating. Not saying it’s true and that there was an affair but it was not a wise move to accept a project that lead to this talk in the first place esp since shk is sjk wife and park bo gum is sjk close friend. acting or not that’s insensitive to the max, you have to think of the well-being of your partner, that’s why so many celebs divorce.
And her fans haven’t dragged him around? Accusing him of using her to finance his family, his “agency”, and etc? He totally saw her as a nuisance if he threaten her to stay quiet or he will spill beans on her drama during the marriage. And she stayed quiet LOL that’s not what an innocent person would had done.
@Chi She did take a legal action, didn't she? Why'd you choose to ignore that? Why would she need to say anything when she could've easily hired a legal team to 'speak' for her? Besides, she isn't the type who talks about her private life. If she didn't talk about him when they were still married, why would you expect her to say anything after they got divorced?
Where were you when SJK decided to propose to her? Perhaps you could've advised him to get married to a non-celeb instead, not an S-tier actress.
If he had a prob with SHK doing a romance drama..why did he say he wants her to do any project she chooses coz he understands that married actresses tend to have limited choices? And in case you forgot, he did ask everyone at the filming location of AC to support Encounter. My question is..did he really mean what he said?
@ nad
SJK also took legal actions. Your point? What does speaking privately or not about your marriage or not has to do with public slander? If He speaks about her dramas in the future obviously she will speak to do damage control, just like how she blamed her accountant for her tax fraud.
I think your brain checked out and stayed at a motel. It’s time to clean and mop inside your head and treat your brain a little better.
What does that dating/proposing scenario has to do with anything? So desperate to deflect with something random. Even though I didn’t like her then, I hope for the best on his behalf. But like most marriages, it’s hard to change people esp their flaws.
Of course he doesn’t mean it, most partners will in some point of their life will hesitantly support their lover decision even though they dislike it. They do it for love. And they will outwardly express their support. Most humans don’t like to outwardly share their martial problems and disagreements in public much less celebrities.
If you would use your brain more, you could had wisely thought this up. But All you can do is deflect and kiss your tax fraud queen feet.
@Chi Read my post again. You accused her of being guilty coz she kept her silence, didn't you? You expected her to say something to defend herself. Guess what? She did. Via her lawyers. But you're not a fan, so you wouldn't know her keeping quiet isn't something abnormal.
Lol SJK didn't mean it but still talked as if he did. So what did he mean? And what about other things he said? He didn't mean them as well? Do you think honesty and transparency aren't important in a marriage?
@ nan
Nice try. It’s Once again It is called damage control. Why didn’t she shut her mouth during her tax scam and not blamed others??? Hmmm abnormal my butt. She opens and shuts her mouth only when it’s suits her self-interests.
You’re such a desperate delulu. Your arguments are thinner than dental floss. Which human should a 100 percent honest about their feelings all the time? He did it to support her despite how he feels. It’s called being selfless. She’s just selfish to take a project that further damaged their relationship.
@Chi She took full responsility and apologized. Why is it so hard for you to understand? Mentioning her accountant doesn't mean she was putting all the blame on him.
Well I prefer someone who doesn't sugarcoat things. At least SHK's words and actions have always been consistent. She talked about focusing on herself since Feb, a few months before the divorce announcement whereas the other person still talked about how his wife kept giving him support to complete the filming of his drama. Lol obviously he didn't really mean that coz she moved out of her own house early last year.
Lol him and his agency doesnt want to clarify that the house the he mediaplay since 2017 as their marital house is not really a marital house and maybe he is ashamed that he live and she fed him during their marriage lmao.
@Chi on. I didnt read your comments, not all of it, because I realize you're a toxic but solid fan of SJK therefore you'd think and believe everything you want to believe. There is absolutely no arguing with you. Goodluck with your hatred. Obviously you seethe with anger because it is SHK who emerged victorious from the divorce. You know why? She handled it with class. She didnt stoop down to the level that mirror his fans, like you.
@ mindy
It’s obvious you couldn’t handle the truth and the logic I presented, that’s why you couldn’t finish reading my responses to you. It’s like an alcoholic denying they don’t have a drinking problem. Don’t give up, your delusions will fade someday.
SJK was kind to not spill the beans on your tax fraud queen. I’m not sure how she’s victorious. I’m just glad she wasn’t in an acting project for a year and a half. Her acting is atrociously bland.
Toxic people are those who defends criminals. And they accuse others with baseless accusations w/o solid evidence. That is a great definition of most shk fans. Hypocrites. Shk has a criminal record, sjk doesn’t. Boom! LOL
@ mindy
Also lady, it was a fellow comrade of yours who started belittling sjk first in this article. Don’t be surprise if In the future I initiate first. It’s not fair you shk get all the fun LOL
Lol how did she end up victorious? She hasn't signed any new cf post divorce neither she is offered new drama? Even her mediaplay movie Anna nobody is willing to finance it, even her Chinese movie are in halt. fans knew it just a ploy to distract netizen from rumors about her cheating. Knetz still hate her to date. Obviously she has no choice to remain classy when she obviously was the one who ruined the marriage.
Her Chinese movie is in a halt? I'm a fan and I don't know anything about that. Which movie were you referring to?
How do you know she hasn't been offered any projects? Do you work for UAA? It's only been a year since Encounter ended and she specifically said she would take a break last year..so? Regarding Anna, she never said she would do it, didn't she?
If she ruined her unhappy marriage by walking out on him, then I'm thankful she did that.
@mulan
I think she’s still offered some acting projects, but thankfully she either rejected or the project got delayed or cancelled, her acting isn’t that good. Sjk was a way better actor and more expressive in facial acting. She has been an actress for so long but she doesn’t have many projects in her name, thank goodness. Her movie career bombed for the most part. She should just stick to modeling and cfs.
@ nad
She only said she would take a break until end of 2019. It’s 4 months in 2020. It’s not big but another glimpse of her dishonesty.
@Chi And she said MAYBE she will choose a project in 2020..MAYBE. But nothing has been decided yet.
Do you need some time to comprehend? I have plenty to give you.
@Mulan Do yo work on her agency how did you know she never have offers? Alisters never announce their project unless they are positively reviewing it. Example Wonbin everyone aware he is the most wanted actor by pds and producer but do you see any news about his offers? No because thats how Alisters behave. And shk projects only get leadked when she is positively reviewing it. Only b listers always announce projects to make it look like they got offers. Lol
