After hearing the latest news about Song Joong Ki dating, a lot of netizens have been looking at how Korean journalists have written about Song Joong Ki dating and Song Hye Kyo dating.
One Netizen pointed out that the articles that journalists wrote about Song Hye Kyo's relationships had a negative tone, making the actress seem like a bad person.
This is very different from the way reporters are writing about Song Joong Ki's new girlfriend, who they seem to like a lot.
The netizen wrote a post in a popular online community about how Song Hye Kyo's name is smeared because of dating rumors, even though there are a lot more dating rumors about male celebrities than there are about her.
The person who made the post also said that Song Joong Ki is getting support for dating a non-Korean woman, but if a female Korean celebrity, like BLACKPINK's Jennie, dated a non-Korean man, she would get so much criticism.
Other Netizens agreed with the first post and said:
"Can you imagine how much Song Hye Kyo would have been slandered if she had shown up at the airport with a foreign man?"
"People making fun of Song Hye Kyo for being a man-crazy woman is silly to me because men probably don't even leave her alone. How does she look? Song Hye Kyo didn't force those men to go out with her. I think it would be strange if two famous people who look good and have worked together for months don't date each other."
"I agree, negative reactions occur to female celebrities more than male celebrities."
"There are a lot of mean things said about Song Hye Kyo."
"It's because the news that Song Hye Kyo was dating got more attention."
