Song Hye-kyo and Song Joong-ki have repeatedly denied their relationship until the two surprised the fans with the announcement of their wedding, which will be held this coming 31st of October.

The Descendants of the Sun co-stars' private wedding will be inaccessible to public.

A long-time best friend of the groom-to-be will perform the wedding and Ock Joo-hyun, a former member of the girl group Fin.K.L who is also the actress’ close friend, will sing at the nuptials. As the ceremony will proceed in private, there will be no press conference or photo release. The newlyweds will head to Europe for their honeymoon and return to a home in Itaewon, Seoul that the actor purchased and refurnished this January.

The two Songs dated for two years before they decided to take each other as husband and wife.

Their penchant for privacy and efforts to keep away from the public eye seem to have led their romantic encounters to be mainly arranged overseas. Speculations of their relationship began to circulate when the actor and the actress were spotted together in New York this March, which were repudiated by both as mere rumors. In June, they were seen again in Bali, albeit separately, to the suspicion of many. Although the couple denied being an item at the time, they announced their marriage shortly later.
