Despite working under a big company, Jang Ki Yong still had to fight his way to the top, starting from the most minor roles. Thanks to his relentless dedication, however, the actor has slowly won over both the general audience and critics. 

Song Hye Kyo also sang a lot of praise for this acting partner. In fact, she even visited the actor while he’s doing his military service – something the actress has never done for previous co-stars. The two’s interactions were also super public, and they kept close contact even after their series ended. As a result, Song Hye Kyo and Jang Ki Yong were rumored to be together romantically, but neither of the two has confirmed anything as of now. 

Park Bo Gum

Fans of Song Hye Kyo are probably familiar to the young actor Park Bo Gum via the shared project “Encounter”. The actor has always been well recognized for his looks, and his acting talent is also not to be messed with.

In fact, when Song Hye Kyo and Song Joong Ki announced that from husband and wife, they were going their separate ways, Park Bo Gum was the most mentioned name. Fortunately, the actor’s agency quickly denied all rumors of him being involved, and threatened to sue all those who spread malicious and false information. 

After their series ended, Song Hye Kyo and Park Bo Gum’s relationship also doesn’t seem to last. Many people suspected this to be due to all the cheating allegations that went on during their collaboration. 

Song Joong Ki 

Among Song Hye Kyo’s gang of younger male co-star, Song Joong Ki took things to the next level, as he not only got dating rumors with the actress, but also married her for 18 months. 

Song Joong Ki and Song Hye Kyo fell in love on the set of their shared project “Descendants of the Sun”, and were once considered to be the best match on the Korean small screen. Fans all across Asia were rejoicing over their marriage news, only to grow terribly disheartened after the couple’s divorce, 

It has been years since the Song-Song couple were no more, but every detail of their relationship still makes headlines. Their names are also constantly attached in most forms of media.
