Song Joong-Ki's agency, Blossom Entertainment, has refuted reports that the Hallyu star reportedly chartered a private jet for Song Hye-Kyo, after the former held his fan meeting in Chengdu, China, on June 17.
Recently, a Taiwan news outlet has misreported that Joong-Ki specially provided a private plane for his co-star's arrival and departure from the said country. The reports claimed that the on-screen couple left Chengdu, China by a private plane together.
Much to the fan's excitement and big cheers, a photo of the reportedly private plane was widely circulated on Facebook. However, not long after the news made clamor in the online world, Blossom Entertainment then expressed earlier today that the plane was not chartered by Joong-Ki, but rather by the event organizers.
"The private plane was a special gift by the organizers and sponsors who was in charge of the fan meeting in China, which was meant for Song Hye Kyo," a representative from Blossom Entertainment told MBN, as translated by Twitter's SongJoongKi_SG. "We are not aware of the fact that Song Joong Ki had provided a private plane for Song Hye Kyo."
Joong-Ki had successfully concluded his seventh fan meeting in the southwestern Chinese city of Chengdu on June 17, Friday, with more than 6,500 local fans in attendance. The 30-year-old actor was joined by Hye-Kyo, who wore a white top paired with a denim skirt, All K-pop has learned.
At the fan meeting, the on-screen couple re-enacted a few major scenes from the blockbuster TV series and had also drawn each other's portrait in a span of 1-minute. Much to the delight of the fans, the so-called Song-Song couple sang an adorable duet of "Always," one of the original soundtrack of KBS2's "Descendants of the Sun."
The melodrama TV series premiered in Feb. 24 in South Korea and mainland China and has generated billions of views on the Chinese streaming website, iQiyi. The 19-episode drama follows Captain Yoo Si-Jin aka Big Boss (Joong-Ki), who leads South Korea's peace-keeping troops in an anecdotal war-torn country of Uruk. A unique love story ensues when he meets Doctor Kang Mo-Yeon aka Beauty (Hye Kyo), who is assigned to lead a medical team to Uruk.
"Lately, I've been feeling first-hand how many of you there are and how precious you all are to me," he said toward the end of the event, as quoted by The Korea Times. "I will never stop thanking you."
