Song Ky has just returned with a new film and is actively participating in promotional events
In one program the 40-year-old actor unexpectedly shared his views on his partner drinking with members of the opposite sex after 10 p m
Specifically when asked what to do if your partner goes drinking with someone of the opposite sex
Song Ky replied she doesn’t pay much attention to it but 10 p m is already bedtime
The actor's response was interpreted as subtly disagreeing with the matter
Within moments Nam's response to the Descendants of the Sun query sent social media into a frenzy rocketing to second place on Weibo's trending topics
Song Ky has received a wide range of conflicting opinions with some viewers criticizing him for being overly patriarchal
Even linking the story to Song Ky's previous marriage
She likely fled so quickly because Song Hye Kyo is a career-driven
woman who refuses to live under a patriarchal husband's shadow
The feeling was that all he really wanted was a beautiful well-put-together capable woman who could bear him children
Compared to Song Hye Kyo who is always focused on her career it's clear that his current wife suits his needs better
Song Hye Kyo made the right choice by divorcing him Actors
must constantly appear on screen and engage with audiences
If you have such expectations you shouldn't be looking for
anyone in this field anymore Such patriarchal men deserve divorce
Sinead harshly criticized Song Jong-ki yet many voices also came to his defense
They consider it normal for the other party to maintain distance from others
Drinking alcohol after 10 p m is also very dangerous for the person consuming it
They considered Song Jong-ki's viewpoint perfectly normal far from domineering yet he was harshly criticized solely for broadcasting an unfounded hatred
If Song Jong-ki could also refrain from drinking and chatting with others after 10 p m this request wouldn't be unreasonable
Even so after getting married he still had to maintain distance from his outside friends
I also can't accept my partner drinking with someone else after 10 p m
Not accepting it is perfectly normal
Staying out late drinking with members of the opposite sex after 10 p m regularly is bound to cause trouble
I don't think Song Jong-ki's request is unreasonable I just
don't like my husband drinking with other women at night
He could take me along but he shouldn't go alone Despite Song
Jong-ki and Song Hye-kyo having been divorced for many years
Every time one of them gets caught in a storm the other is always dragged into the mess
In late November 2024 Song Jong-ki shared the joyful news of welcoming his second daughter with an English actress
Alongside well-wishes for the actor and his wife Song Hye-kyo his ex-wife was unexpectedly drawn into the conversation
Even on many forums she was unfairly mocked
Some comments also mentioned that having a complete family life with daughters is what Song Jong-ki desires
Yet this is something even a top-tier superstar wife could never fulfill
