Song Jong Ki's Message to Fans on 5 July 2017
"Hello, This is Joong Ki.
It’s been a long time since I’ve said hello to you. Though I am more nervous than ever right now, the reason why I am writing to you is because I want the blessings from you before anyone else and I want to share my true feelings.
Recently, I have been blessed to be a part of a great drama and was given tremendous love from fans that was the happiest days of my life.
Through those happy moments, I gained another precious friend whom I shared my true feelings and we have developed into a loving relationship.
On the beginning day of 2017, we have promised each other to spend the rest of our lives together and to fill each other’s incompleteness with love and to start our new life together, I will marry actress Song Hye Kyo on the last day of October, 2017.
I understand this abrupt news might have caused my dear fans some discomfort.
I wanted to share this happy news with you as soon as possible, however, this is a matter that just not involve one person but two and further family’s opinion was very important to me. So, it was a situation that needs to be dealt carefully and thoughtfully.
Also, a movie where tremendous amount of efforts and passions were put into was about to premiere and I did not want to be any harm to the production staff and fellow actors due to my personal life.
I sincerely ask for your kind understanding, if I have seen to be a less-understanding self, I apologize.
The promise I made with myself when I first started acting comes to mind.
Being an actor, I wanted to be a person who can be a better self embracing my surroundings rather than moving up the ladder and be a celebrity that is not so high up but rather be closer to fans, be friendlier, be kind and be more responsible.
I have heard this phrase that life is not about speed but rather about direction. I will take it step by step, remembering the true values you have taught me, try to be wise and learn about the beautiful surroundings that I have been missing, the real values and about people.
I ask you to support my values and cheer for me. I will live with my words and be a better actor and a better family man.
Please give your blessing to the two of us.
Thank you"

Song Hye Kyo's Message to Fan on 5 July 2017
“Hi, This is Hye Kyo.
It’s been a long time since I said hello to Sunflower.
I wanted to share a personal message here first, a place where I have been connecting with my fans since my debut.
You must have been shocked to hear my marriage news today. I understand that you may think I lacked the respect for my fans and you could have been surprised, but I sincerely hope that you can understand me with an open heart.
Joongki and I were first co-workers who had really good chemistry. Throughout filming, I realized we had similar values and thoughts and we could talk about everything and anything with each other.
He was a good co-worker and a good friend to me, so we kept on touch after finishing the drama and we spent time to get to know each other better.
For a long time after that, he has continuously shown me faith and trust that I began to think that I could spend my future with him. I was grateful for his true feelings and I grew confident in him.
I wanted to share my marriage news with my fans first but because it is not just about myself that I had to be extra careful.
I am really nervous right now sharing the news so suddenly but I trust that you will support me. You have been with me throughout my career supporting and trusting my decisions so I hope you continue to show me support and love. Once again, I am truly grateful to my fans who have been patiently waiting for me to tell you the news myself.
Since now it will not be just me, but the two of us, I will take this opportunity to look around and be a positive influence.
Please give us your warm blessings.
Thank you.”
