The two married in October 2017 after they tied up with the same drama appearance in 2015, but were shocked by the news of the breakup in a year and eight months after their marriage. On the 26th, the Seoul Family Court submitted an application for divorce mediation.
While this fact is known as the official position of both sides on the 27th and many fans are saddened, hot attention is being paid to overseas due to the divorce of the Korean Wave star couple. China Actor Zhang Ziyi, who attended the wedding ceremony of the two, also expressed his sadness through SNS.
In addition, various rumors that have not been confirmed are mass-produced and secondary damage is feared. In particular, the name of Actor Park Bo-gum, a member of the agency such as Song Joong-ki, was mentioned in Jirashi, and their agency warned against the indiscriminate distribution of false rumors, saying, "We will start legal response on the 27th."

"We politely ask for understanding that the specific contents of the other are the privacy of both Actors." Song Joong-ki did not disclose the reason and said, "It is difficult to tell stories about private life. "I would like to ask you to understand," he said. "Both of them are hoping to finish the divorce process smoothly rather than criticizing each other."
Background of filing for divorce settlement instead of divorce? Trade consultation divorce is carried out when divorce process can be completed without difference between couple. On the other hand, the divorce settlement application has been discussed to some extent in the divorce, but when there is a disagreement in the Cebu City area, the divorce is decided by the adjustment of the family court. According to the official, the two sides have agreed on the divorce in a big frame, In addition, it is said that it is not considering future lawsuits. It is known to the public that it is burdensome to attend directly, so it can be coordinated through the agent, and if it is concerned about the image blow, it can be fine-tuned.
Until recently, we mentioned each other in the official ceremony? Song Joong-ki said at the production presentation of TVN drama 'Asdal Chronicle' on May 28, "(After marriage) I got very stable mind. It seems that everyone who is married will feel the same. "My wife is also a fan of the two writers and the director. Song Hye-kyo also mentioned that he had done well because he cheered me to concentrate and do well because it was a drama that I did for a long time. Song Hye-kyo also said at the TVN drama 'Boyfriend' production presentation last November, "I said that I would watch it hard to do (Song Joong-ki)."
I was suffering from a dispute during my short marriage. I showed off my marriage in an official ceremony, but in February, there was a dispute and divorce. At the time, Song Hye-kyo, who is leaving China entertainment media abroad, filed a divorce saying he was not wearing a wedding ring. It was also based on the fact that Song Hye-kyo deleted the picture of her husband Song Joong-ki from her SNS, but the grounds were poor and her agency did not officially disclose her position as "embarrassment". Song Joong-ki was later seen wearing a wedding ring at the scene of the "Asdal Chronicle" script reading, and dismissed the divorce by conveying his wife Song Hye-kyo's support at the production presentation.

China Actor Zhang Ziyi, who attended the wedding ceremony, also attracted attention by mentioning the divorce of the two. He said, "I respect the choice of the two and hope that there will be a beautiful day."
What is the impact on the current work and the next work? In the case of the current Asdal Chronicle, it is a pre-production drama and has finished shooting at the end of May. Song Joong-ki will be filming in July of the first SF movie "Win Riho" in Korea, but it is unlikely to have a significant impact on the release of the movie next year. Song Hye-kyo's final test of "Hiena", which was under consideration as his next film, was announced, raising speculation that it is not a psychological burden on divorce, but his agency has already decided a month ago and has no connection with his privacy. ... Song Hye-kyo is currently considering appearing in Lee Ju-young's new film Anna, which directed the movie Single Rider. It is known that the contract was signed with Wang Gawi director film production company in April, and it is expected that overseas work will be done soon.
Response to rumors Various malicious rumors such as affair with the divorce of the couple were created in the form of Jirashi. In particular, when Park Bo-gum, who was a member of an agency such as Song Joong-ki and who had been in close contact with Song Hye-kyo as a "boyfriend," was mentioned, the agency showed displeasure and suggested legal action.

"Song Hye-kyo is checking the contents of the rumor and is expected to set the direction of response after reviewing it.
Future procedures? The divorce mediation case filed by Song Joong-ki was allocated to the 12th Household Division of the Seoul Family Court. In this court, which is the only part of the mediation, the couple will proceed with the procedure so that they can agree through the mediation of both sides without going through a formal trial. If both sides agree on the mediation, they can divorce smoothly, but if the mediation is not established, the formal divorce proceedings proceed. Considering the period of one month or so, the first adjustment date is expected to be caught at the end of next month.
