SEOUL, SOUTH KOREA: South Korean actor Song Joong-ki is once again in the headlines after his agency confirmed him being in a relationship, however, they did not reveal the identity of his new girlfriend. It is alleged that the 'Vincenzo' actor is dating a "non-celebrity from England." The internet thinks that the woman is none other than Katy Louise Saunders.
"Actor Song Joong-ki is currently seeing a woman with good feelings. We hope that you can support their relationship. We ask for your understanding that information other than the fact that they are in a relationship cannot be confirmed. Please refrain from writing any unconfirmed or speculative reports," said his agency High Zium Studio in a statement confirming that the 37-year-old actor is now off the market. While it is said that Song Joong-Ki's girlfriend is not a celebrity, that might not actually be the case. Instead, it is likely that she might just not be a celebrity in South Korea. The dating news started surfacing three years after Song Joong-ki announced his divorce from ‘Descendants of the Sun’ co-star Song Hye Kyo in 2019.
