Kim Soo-hyun’s Close Bodyguard Spotted Escorting Kim Ji-won, Sparking Dating Rumors
On the evening of May 14, the on-screen couple Kim Soo-hyun and Kim Ji-won took over social media, with rumors circulating that their on-screen chemistry in “Queen of Tears” has turned into a real-life romance.
The speculation arose from a video suggesting that Kim Soo-hyun showed special attention to Kim Ji-won when she appeared at Incheon Airport on May 12.
In the video, public attention was drawn to a member of the security team accompanying Kim Ji-won. It was not hard to recognize this bodyguard, who had frequently accompanied Kim Soo-hyun on his international events. From this, many viewers speculated that the actor, born in 1988, had dispatched his trusted bodyguard to escort his rumored girlfriend, Kim Ji-won, at the airport two days earlier.
On various forums, the public has been fervently discussing the video, which is believed to be “evidence” of Kim Soo-hyun’s secret romance with Kim Ji-won. Many fans believe that the “Queen of Tears” couple has turned their on-screen romance into reality.
However, some netizens argue that the video alone is insufficient to conclude that Kim Soo-hyun and Kim Ji-won are dating. These viewers suggest that it is common for two stars to share security personnel if they have contracts with the same security company.
On the other hand, Kim Soo-hyun and Kim Ji-won have been enthusiastically “shipped” by fans after the success of “Queen of Tears”, leading to various “evidence” of the two’s supposed romance emerging.
Particularly, in mid-April, Kim Ji-won posted a photo in front of a castle, along with memorable moments with Kim Soo-hyun during the filming of “Queen of Tears.” A few days later, Kim Soo-hyun also posted a photo outside the same castle, with a similar aesthetic, leading to suspicions of “lovestagram”. However, many viewers believe that the similar background were simply because Kim Ji-won and Kim Soo-hyun were co-stars who went to the same filming location.
