Son Ye-jin’s Move Sparks Rumors about Kim Soo-hyun & Kim Ji-won’s Relationship
A recent action of actress Son Ye-jin on Instagram led to Kim Soo-hyun & Kim Ji-won being hotly discussed on various platforms.
On the evening of July 4, Son Ye-jin caused an uproar on social media when she unexpectedly followed an account that “ships” Kim Soo-hyun with Kim Ji-won. It’s easy to see that this account has been posting a lot of photoshopped images of the lead couple from the hit show *Queen of Tears*. Additionally, the account owner uses images of Kim Soo-hyun and Kim Ji-won as their avatar to show enthusiastic support for the popular on-screen couple.
Son Ye-jin’s action quickly grabbed attention online, becoming a hot topic of discussion. Notably, many viewers are fiercely debating whether Son Ye-jin is truly a “shipper” of Kim Soo-hyun and Kim Ji-won.
Many fans are convinced that Son Ye-jin is indeed “shipping” the *Queen of Tears* couple based on two significant details. First, Son Ye-jin followed the account right when dating rumors about Kim Soo-hyun and Kim Ji-won were at their peak. Secondly, the account that Son Ye-jin followed primarily posts about the couple.
Some fans even pointed out similarities between the rumored couple Kim Soo-hyun and Kim Ji-won and Son Ye-jin and Hyun Bin. Specifically, the wedding photos in *Queen of Tears* of the Kim-Kim couple were inspired by Son Ye-jin and Hyun Bin’s wedding.
Additionally, the screenwriter of *Queen of Tears*, Park Ji Eun, also wrote the hit drama *Crash Landing on You*, which brought Son Ye-jin and Hyun Bin together in real life. From this, many viewers believe that Son Ye-jin’s following the account that ships Kim Soo-hyun and Kim Ji-won is a good omen for the rumored couple’s future.
However, many viewers argue that Son Ye-jin might not necessarily be “shipping” the *Queen of Tears* couple. According to them, the account in question not only ships Kim Soo-hyun and Kim Ji-won but also supports many other on-screen couples and posts about various trending Korean dramas. Therefore, many netizens believe that Son Ye-jin is simply expressing her love for Hallyu dramas in general, not specifically supporting Kim Soo-hyun and Kim Ji-won. Additionally, due to Instagram making it easy to accidentally follow new accounts, this might have just been an accident.
