Did Song Joong Ki's career plummet after his breakup with Song Hye Kyo, and did he lose the support of his friends?

Despite finding new happiness, Song Joong Ki's career is showing signs of stagnation. The actor is also facing rumors of a rift with his powerful group of close friends after his divorce from Song Hye Kyo .

Since their marriage ended in 2019, Song Joong Ki and Song Hye Kyo have remained the focus of public attention. Every time their names are mentioned, the public constantly compares them. Recently, this interest has increased even further with news of the wedding of Kim Woo Bin and Shin Min Ah appearing in the media.

It's worth noting that Song Joong Ki is known to be a close friend of the groom, Kim Woo Bin, while Song Hye Kyo recently collaborated with him on a film project. However, according to many sources, the likelihood of both appearing at the wedding at the same time is quite low. Industry insiders suggest that the bride and groom may want to maintain privacy, avoiding awkward situations or unwanted attention from guests.

Regarding his personal life, Song Joong Ki remarried in 2023 and currently has two children. Since starting a new family, the actor has focused entirely on his work with numerous film and television projects. However, contrary to expectations, his career is facing many challenges.

Except for two notable works, Vincenzo and The Youngest Son of a Tycoon, which achieved relatively good viewership ratings, Song Joong Ki's other projects haven't really made a significant impact. Some films even suffered box office failures and were ignored by audiences. This has led experts and fans to question the actor's ability to maintain his popularity.

Besides the challenges in his career, Song Joong Ki's image has also received mixed reactions. The public believes he is too focused on sharing details of his private life, especially about his wife and children, during film promotions. For example, during the release of Bogota: City of the Lost, almost every program Song Joong Ki participated in mentioned his family. Or when appearing on Please Take Care of My Refrigerator, he spent most of his time talking about the joy of welcoming his second daughter and his married life with his Italian wife.

Not only is his career facing difficulties, but Song Joong Ki's social relationships have also become a topic of discussion. According to Soompi, many sources are spreading rumors that the actor may have "fallen out" with his long-time close group of friends, which includes famous names such as Lee Kwang Soo, Kim Woo Bin, Jo In Sung, DO (EXO), Kim Ki Bang, and Lee Ki Hoon.

The basis of this rumor stems from the fact that since his divorce, Song Joong Ki has rarely appeared at group gatherings or trips. Furthermore, public interactions on social media between him and the other members have almost disappeared, leading the public to suspect a rift in the powerful circle of friends in the Korean entertainment industry.

From a beloved star with a handsome, talented, and friendly image, Song Joong Ki is now facing numerous challenges, both in his career and personal life. Despite this, he still receives attention and support from a large and loyal fanbase. Changes in his friendships, along with some less-than-successful film projects, present the actor with the dilemma of balancing his personal life and career.
