One of South Korea’s biggest celebrity couples has officially divorced. Actor Song Joong-ki and actress Song Hye-kyo were married back in 2017 after they met on the set of the 2016 hit television series <em>Descendants of the Sun</em>. The two played love interests in the hugely popular series. The couple tied the knot in October 2017 in a lavish ceremony attended by other famous celebrities, including Korean actors Ma Dong-seok and Cha Tae-hyun and Chinese actress Zhang Ziyi. They were known as the “Song-Song couple”. Joong-ki first filed for divorce on June 27. News of their initial split after only a year-and-a-half of marriage shocked their fans across Asia. “Rather than denouncing each other and arguing over who is to blame, I hope that the divorce process can be wrapped up amicably,” he said in a statement at that time. Hye-kyo’s agency, United Artists Agency (UAA) Korea, said in a statement the couple’s divorce was legally completed at the Seoul Family Court on Monday. “The case has been settled [amicably] without any alimony payment or division of assets,” it said. Hye-kyo cited “differences in personality” as the reason for their divorce, her talent agency said in a statement. Following news of the split, the actress wiped clear her Instagram account which featured photos with her now ex-husband including taking down their wedding photo.
