Earlier this month, the Korean entertainment industry and fans of Ahn Bo Hyun and BLACKPINK's Jisoo received a piece of surprising news when it was announced that the two celebrities are in a romantic relationship with each other.

After the announcement, various online communities were abuzz for a while talking about Ahn Bo Hyun and Jisoo's relationship. 

While many fans congratulated the two, there were others who expressed bitterness toward the news.

Much of the hate was directed toward Ahn Bo Hyun. Some netizens and BLACKPINK fans expressed that Jisoo is out of the actor's league.

These netizens filled various online communities with malicious comments such as "Jisoo, you could do much better," "Jisoo's standard for men is so low," and "I'm disappointed that she is dating Ahn Bo Hyun."

With the overflow of backlash towards Ahn Bo Hyun, K-netizens outpoured empathy and defended him from the hate.

They commented:

"I feel bad for Ahn Bo Hyun"

"I thought Ahn Bo Hyun was good. He's good at acting and his personality seems to be kind. I don't think he needs to use her to get popularity because their field of activity is different" 

"Even celebrities say Ahn Bo Hyun is good-looking, why are netizens making a fuss?"

"I thought he gained 2 million followers after the dating news with Jisoo."

"I trust that she picked a good man. She likes him, and that is all that counts. Just let the couple be happy."

"Who cares what korean netizens think. The only opinions that matter are the two that are dating and as long as they are happy together it doesnt matter what anyone else thinks."

"I guess they are judging them by their fame they are. But the truth is that fame doesn't last forever. They're just people at the end of the day. And if, in the end, he turns out to be a good person, that should be enough."

Actor Song Joong Ki showed just how much he adores his wife, Katie Louise Saunders, and their family during a recent appearance.

On December 26, Song Joong Ki joined Choi Hwa Jung’s YouTube channel to promote his film Bogotá: The Land of Last Chances. But while discussing his projects, he couldn’t help but share stories about his life as a husband and dad.

Song Joong Ki married Katie, a British actress, in January last year. The couple welcomed their first child, a son, in June 2023 and recently became parents to a daughter in November 2024.

“My wife and kids are in the countryside near Tuscany, Italy,” he revealed. “We live on the outskirts of Rome, and we even have an olive tree in our yard. We pick olives and make our own olive oil. Since meeting Katie, I’ve fallen in love with Italian food. I can’t eat meals without olive oil now,” he said with a laugh.

The actor also shared how Katie has been learning Korean and already impresses his family. “She’s amazing with languages. She says things like, ‘Mother, let’s eat’ to my mom. It’s not perfect yet, but it’s so adorable,” he said, beaming with pride.

Song Joong Ki didn’t hold back on praising Katie’s personality. “She values manners and character even more than I do, which is impressive. She scolded me once when I was 20 minutes late to a meeting, saying, ‘Who do you think you are to keep someone waiting?’ She always reminds me of the basics. It’s humbling, and honestly, I love it. I sound like such a smitten husband, don’t I?” he joked, laughing.

He also opened up about his children, sharing a heartfelt moment with his son. “My son is now 18 months old. During filming, I didn’t see him for five months. When we reunited, he took a moment to recognize me. But once he hugged me, I couldn’t stop crying,” he admitted emotionally.

Wrapping up, Song Joong Ki said, “I feel incredibly lucky, and it’s all thanks to my wife. She often tells me, ‘You’ve got it all,’ but I think I’m the lucky one.”

With his sweet words and glowing smile, Song Joong Ki proved once again why he’s a true family man. Fans can’t get enough of his heartfelt stories!
