Rumors Spread About Kim Ji Won Secretly Marrying an A-List Star

On the morning of July 27, netizens across Asia were suddenly abuzz with suspicions that Kim Ji Won had secretly gotten married. The rumor originated from a post that went viral on the Chinese social media platform Weibo on the morning of July 27. In the post, a fan who went to eat at a Taiwanese restaurant that Kim Ji Won had previously visited asked about the actress’s eating habits. According to the restaurant owner, the “Queen of Tears” beauty dined there twice, often ordering moderately spicy dishes.

More notably, the restaurant owner also claimed that Kim Ji Won’s husband had once booked a table for 30 people at the restaurant. Unfortunately, her husband was too busy and arrived late due to another meeting on the same day. By the time he arrived, the restaurant had already closed, so he had to change the dining location. On social media forums, netizens buzzed with discussions, wondering when the actress had gotten married without anyone knowing.

But it turns out that the restaurant owner is actually a fan of the Kim Ji Won – Kim Soo Hyun couple after the success of the film “Queen of Tears.” In reality, the owner referred to Kim Soo Hyun as “Kim Ji Won’s husband” because she was so enamored with the couple from “Queen of Tears” and couldn’t move on from the film. In other words, the rumor that the actress born in 1992 had secretly gotten married is false.

Additionally, the meeting mentioned by the restaurant owner was actually a fan meeting event for Kim Soo Hyun in Taiwan earlier this month. On that day, the event ended late, so the actor had to change his dining schedule with the crew from the original plan.

Kim Ji Won and Kim Soo Hyun have been enthusiastically “shipped” by many fans over the past few months. Since April, the on-screen couple has continuously faced rumors of secretly dating and “real love from reel love” after “Queen of Tears” wrapped up filming.

In mid-April, Kim Ji Won posted a photo in front of a castle, along with memorable moments with Kim Soo Hyun during the filming of “Queen of Tears.” A few days later, Kim Soo Hyun also posted a photo taken outside the same castle, with a similar “selfie spot” as Kim Ji Won. However, many believe that this “lovestagram” evidence is not convincing enough since the two artists were filming at the same location.

On May 15, eagle-eyed fans noticed that a member of Kim Ji Won’s security team once accompanied Kim Soo Hyun to an event. From this, many concluded that the actor, born in 1988, had sent a trusted bodyguard to ensure Kim Ji Won’s safety. Furthermore, Kim Soo Hyun was also said to have sent his manager to pick up Kim Ji Won at the airport on May 11 to take care of the beauty.

The public focused their attention on a bodyguard accompanying Kim Ji Won during her return to Korea on May 15. This person had previously supported Kim Soo Hyun at an event in Indonesia. On social media forums, many speculated that the actor sent his private bodyguard to protect his rumored girlfriend Kim Ji Won at Incheon airport.

Last May, Kim Soo Hyun’s assistant accompanied him to an overseas event. And on May 15 this year, Kim Soo Hyun’s assistant (wearing a white mask) was seen in the same frame as Kim Ji Won at Incheon airport.
