“Hello. This is Blossom Entertainment and UAA.
First of all, we give our thanks to the Korean and international fans who have shown a lot of interest in and love for Song Joong Ki and Song Hye Kyo. Also, we ask for your understanding as we convey this surprising news.
Song Joong Ki and Song Hye Kyo will be holding a wedding ceremony on the final day of October, 2017. A marriage is not only a private matter but also a meeting between two families, so it was a delicate situation in many ways.
There was no choice but to be cautious prior to marriage, and so we are at last conveying this message. We ask for everyone’s understanding.
We ask for you to send the couple best wishes for their beautiful future together, and the two actors will be conveying the news to their fans separately. Thank you.”
"Descendants of the Sun" was a major hit not only in Korea, but also across Asia. In the series, Song Jong Ki plays Yoo Si-Jin, who is the captain of a Korean Special Forces Unit while Song Hye Kyo plays Dr. Kang Mo-yeon.

Throughout the series, fans have observed the off-cam chemistry between the two, which lead to dating rumors that were constantly denied by the stars’ representatives.
The whole world (okay, we exaggerate) was shocked, in a good way, by the news but all we're thinking about right now is what the beautiful bride-to-be will wear for the wedding. We also want to see what the groom will look like. This is our favorite power couple, after all. We've only dreamt of this moment and it's going to be a reality.
