Hello. This is Song Joong Ki.

First, I’d like to apologize for delivering this unfortunate news to the many fans who love and care for me.

I have begun the process of filing for divorce from Song Hye Kyo.

Rather than denouncing one another and arguing over who is to blame, I hope that the divorce process can be wrapped up amicably.

I ask for your understanding in regards to the fact that it is difficult to discuss the details of my personal life, and I will recover from my current wounds and do my utmost as an actor to repay you through great productions in the future.

Thank you.

Following Song Joong Ki’s announcement that he has filed for a divorce, Song Hye Kyo has released a statement through her agency.

On June 27, Song Joong Ki’s attorney stated that the actor had taken his first steps in filing for a divorce from wife Song Hye Kyo. The actor also released an official statement apologizing to his fans and explaining that he hoped for an amicable divorce.

Shortly afterwards, Song Hye Kyo’s agency United Artists Agency (UAA) Korea responded to the news on behalf of the actress.

A representative of the agency stated, “We find it unfortunate that we are greeting you with unhappy news. After careful consideration, actress Song Hye Kyo and her husband are taking the first steps toward a divorce.”

“The reason [for the divorce] is differences in personality,” continued the agency, “and because the two were unable to overcome their differences, they were forced to come to this decision. We respectfully ask for your understanding in regards to the fact that we cannot confirm any further details out of respect for the two actors’ personal lives. Additionally, we urge you to refrain from making scandalous posts and speculative comments.”

Nobody’s really surprised. It was reported months ago that they were living apart without their wedding rings. It’s sad bc they were really cute together. :/

Hate all of this crap since it’s so against her. He really screwed her over with that statement.

Also hate how sexist some knetz are since it was released that he went to the theatre on the same day he issued the divorce, if it was the other way around i could already hear them ‘Hullllll so scary! She doesnt even pretend, she must have mental issues’ but no he is a man so he is ‘emotionally prepared’

Men really can do no wrong, their behavior will always be excused and the woman is always to blame. People are bringing up her exes. Cause how dare a woman date multiple people over a 10+ year period

So SJK is the one filing. Not saying that it's not amicable. But that's saying a lot about who is potentially the most at fault. Or maybe that's how the statements are being presented. I'm not invested in either of them.

but I just hope it's best for all involved.
