Song Joong Ki better watch out, as the "Descendants of the Sun" actor has a new rival when it comes to Song Hye Kyo's affection, and it's Hallyu star Lee Min Ho.
Even months after the last episode of "Descendants of the Sun" aired, there's still a lot of buzz surrounding its main stars Joong Ki and Hye Kyo. Although they are constantly paired and reported to be dating in secret, it seems that fans are growing more interested in seeing Hye Kyo team up with other actors, particularly "Boys Over Flowers" lead Lee Min Ho. Fans have created the "Minkyo" moniker in their honor, and pegged them as the new "magical couple."
As of this writing, there is no confirmation about any project that would involve this newly discovered team up. However, Lee previously declared that he wanted to work with the actress.
"I would like to work with my ideal type, Song Hye Kyo," Lee said in an interview with IS Plus two years ago, as reported by Drama Fever. "Although she has an elegant and classic style, her charisma is also strong and her acting talent is outstanding. If we act together, I think I could learn a lot from her. But I'd probably tremble (be nervous) a lot."
This would be an interesting couple to watch on television, considering both are high profile stars with massive followings all across Asia, and have secured praises for their acting skills. They are both prominent Hallyu forces, so bringing them together for a project will definitely result in an epic hit.
In the meantime, Lee is co-starring with another big name in the industry - Jun Ji Hyun. The two are slated to star in the drama "Legend of the Blue Sea," which is penned by "My Love From the Star" screenwriter Park Ji Eun.
According to Soompi, the drama is based on a storybook from the Joseon era, and follows the life of Kim Dam Nyeong who was known to have returned mermaids and mermen back to the sea after being caught by fishermen. "Legend of the Blue Sea" is expected to premiere on SBS this November.
