The Difference In Song Joong Ki’s Behavior Towards Wife Katy Louise Saunders At The Airport Before And After Marriage Becomes A Hot Topic
Earlier in the year, netizens couldn’t hide their excitement when actor Song Joong Ki announced that he had married British actress Katy Louise Saunders and that the two were expecting their first child.
Recently, the difference in the couple’s behavior after their marriage at the airport has become a hot topic.
In December, Song Joong Ki returned to Korea after promotions abroad for his K-Drama Reborn Rich. Yet, even before the news of his relationship was announced, what caught the netizens’ attention was that he was with Katy Louise Saunders.
Despite the large crowds of press and fans, Song Joong Ki was with her from the beginning, even ensuring he walked closely by her side.
At one point, many thought that the actor seemingly wanted to hold hands with her but chose not to.
Of course, it couldn’t have been more different from their recent appearance as husband and wife.
On February 16 (KST), the newly married couple arrived at Incheon airport for an overseas schedule. One of the major things that fans noticed was the fact that Song Joong Ki was very protective over Katy Louise Saunders.
When he thought that the media was getting too close, he immediately put his hands in front of his wife, so they kept their distance.
The biggest difference Korean netizens noticed was how affectionate Song Joong Ki was being.
After they went through security, the media managed to catch the happy couple as they were walking. At first, the two kept the same distance and happily greeted those who were waiting for them, whether it was the fans or the press.
Yet, the moment that made everyone swoon was when the cameras caught Song Joong Ki affectionately touching his wife’s hair.
Although it was a simple gesture, it was worlds away from their first appearance and refreshing considering Korean attitudes toward public displays of affection.
He then moved his hand to her shoulder and reassuringly rubbed her shoulder before letting go.
Even as they were walking down the escalator, Song Joong Ki put his hand on Katy Louise Saunder’s back to guide her.
Along with the more affectionate side of Song Joong Ki being shown, the post highlighted that, unlike last time, Katy Louise Saunders was gaining more attention from the press.
It meant that fans noticed when she greeted the press and fans waiting like a true Korean, bowing to those around her.
Of course, seeing the happy couple more open about their relationship is heartwarming, showing they feel more comfortable showcasing affection in public.
