Fans could not help but fall in love all over again after seeing "Descendants of the Sun" love birds Song Joong Ki and Song Hye Kyo at the recently 52nd Baeksang Arts Awards. The rumored couple was very close to each other during the event, proving even more that their chemistry does not just work in front of the cameras, but in real life as well.
Joong Ki and Hye Kyo arrived at Kyung Hee University Grand Peace Palace together, while they held hands as they walked the red carpet. They greeted fans and photographers with their warm smiles and graceful waves.
But all that sweetness did not stop at the red carpet because during the event proper, Joong Ki was spotted holding Hye Kyo's hand when the winner for Best Actress was being announced. Although "Signal" actress Kim Hye Sun took home the award, Hye Kyo was still all smiles as she was comforted by her "Descendants of the Sun" leading man.
According to Manila Bulletin, both Joong Ki and Hye Kyo won Most Popular actor and actress, respectively. "Descendants of the Sun" also won the highest achievement of the night, the Baeksang Arts Awards Grand Prize, which is given to the top South Korean movies and TV shows.
The "Descendants of the Sun" stars have been the constant subjects of endless dating rumors. Despite denying the reports, fans are still convinced that the two are coupling in real life.
In a recent interview, Joong Ki shared that he likes to keep things private when it comes to dating.
"My dating style is not that special. But I have no plans to go public if I get into a relationship," the 30-year-old actor said. "I will do my best to preserve the emotion for the person that I like, but I also want to keep it a secret for that person."
In the meantime, Joong Ki continues his Asia tour to his fans and supporters of "Descendants of the Sun." Yonhap News reported that his onscreen lady love Hye Kyo will be a special guest at his fan meeting in Chengdu, China on June 17.
