Actor Lee Chang-hoon clarified past scandals with Song Hye-kyo.
Lee Chang-hoon appeared on the tvN STORY Chuseok special ‘Who ordered coffee from Shin Dong-yeob? Soonpoong Family’ aired on the 9th.
On that day, MC Shin Dong-yeob said, “Chang-hoon hyung was incredibly popular back in the day,” adding, “At that time, there were also rumors about him and Song Hye-kyo.”
Lee Chang-hoon humbly responded, “There weren’t many stars back then.”
Lee Chang-hoon and Song Hye-kyo, who appeared together in the SBS sitcom ‘Soonpoong Obstetrics and Gynecology’, were also embroiled in dating rumors. At that time, Lee Chang-hoon was in his 30s, while Song Hye-kyo was a high school senior.
Lee Chang-hoon expressed his frustration in a past broadcast, saying, “There were even talks of ‘original school dating’.”
Lee Chang-hoon, who said he even fought with reporters because of the scandal with Song Hye-kyo, joked, “Now that Hye-kyo has become a world star, when asked if we dated, she says, ‘Just think of it casually.’”
Lee Chang-hoon mentioned that he was also asked about the dating rumors by his wife, saying, “As soon as I got married, all my wife’s friends gathered and asked, ‘Honey, did you really date Song Hye-kyo?’ They even made a bet,” adding, “So I said ‘no.’ I explained that it was just because the drama was doing so well at that time.”
A photo of the two taken during the filming of ‘Soonpoong Obstetrics and Gynecology’ was also revealed, with Lee Chang-hoon explaining, “We filmed for 1 year and 3 months, but we only took one picture.” Seeing the affectionate photo of the two, Shin Dong-yeob exclaimed, “They dated, they dated,” causing laughter.
Meanwhile, the second episode of ‘Who ordered coffee from Shin Dong-yeob? Soonpoong Family’ will air today (10th) at 7:30 PM on tvN STORY.
