South Korea's 'SongSong Couple' to Split

Reuters.com: South Korean actors Song Hye-kyo and Song Joong-ki are splitting up less than two years after their fairytale marriage, the couple said on Thursday, shocking fans across Asia.

The co-stars of the 2016 hit television melodrama “Descendants of the Sun” - who played a soldier and doctor who fall in love - planned to seek a divorce due to personality differences.

“I have begun the arbitration process for divorce from Song Hye-kyo,” Song Joong-ki, 33, said in a statement issued by his lawyer.

“Both of us hope to settle the divorce process in a smooth manner, rather than debating wrongdoing and blaming each other,” he added.

Song Hye-kyo, 37, cited “differences in personality” as the reason for their divorce, her talent agency said in a statement.

The SongSong couple, as they were dubbed by the media, are part of the “Korean Wave” of drama and popular music that has swept through the rest of Asia.
