However, after days of mounting pressure and endless questions from the media, both stars’ management companies finally issued a statement. In their official response, the representatives stated that there is currently nothing official between Kim Ji Won and Kim Soo Hyun. They assured fans and the media that if there were any developments, they would be the first to inform the public. This statement, albeit clarifying the current status, felt somewhat ambiguous to many, as it seemed to neither confirm nor completely deny the possibility of a budding romance. It left fans with more questions than answers, making it seem like a classic case of "answering without really answering." Despite the lack of a definitive confirmation, fans remain hopeful. They continue to draw parallels to the beloved couple Hyun Bin and Son Ye Jin, whose relationship also began amidst a flurry of rumors before becoming a public and much-celebrated romance. The prospect of another high-profile Korean celebrity couple has captivated the imagination of fans, who eagerly await any new developments. For now, the relationship status of Kim Ji Won and Kim Soo Hyun remains a mystery. While their official stance might be one of neutrality, the fanbase remains vigilant, hoping that their favorite stars might indeed be the next big couple in the Korean entertainment industry. Until then, the speculation and excitement continue, with every new sighting and interaction adding fuel to the fire of fan enthusiasm. **A Few Days Ago, the Online Community Was Abuzz with a Clip of Kim Soo Hyun Sending His Trusted Bodyguard to Escort Kim Ji Won: Are the Queen of Tears Couple Secretly Dating?** On the evening of May 14, the on-screen couple Kim Soo Hyun and Kim Ji Won took over social media with rumors that they have officially transitioned from reel to real after their seamless collaboration in the hit drama Queen of Tears. The speculation originated from a clip suggesting that Kim Soo Hyun was showing special concern for Kim Ji Won when the actress appeared at Incheon Airport on May 12. In the aforementioned video, the public's attention was drawn to a member of the security team assisting Kim Ji Won. It wasn't hard to recognize this bodyguard as he had accompanied Kim Soo Hyun on numerous occasions abroad for events. From this, many viewers concluded that the actor, born in 1988, had sent his trusted bodyguard to escort his rumored girlfriend, Kim Ji Won, at the airport two days prior. On various forums, the public has been actively discussing the clip, which is believed to be evidence of Kim Soo Hyun secretly dating Kim Ji Won. Many fans are convinced that the Queen of Tears couple has taken their on-screen romance into real life. However, there are also numerous netizens who argue that the video alone is insufficient to conclude that Kim Soo Hyun and Kim Ji Won are dating in real life. These viewers suggest that it is entirely plausible for Kim Soo Hyun and Kim Ji Won to share security staff, as both stars might have contracts with the same security company. Kim Soo Hyun and Kim Ji Won have been heavily "shipped" by fans following the success of the sensational drama Queen of Tears. Over the past month, the on-screen couple has been dropping numerous dating hints, causing continuous waves on social media. At the end of last month, the public was abuzz with another suspicious move by Kim Soo Hyun and Kim Ji Won. Specifically, on the morning of April 28, Kim Ji Won's team released images of her as a brand ambassador for a beverage brand. By the afternoon of the same day, Kim Soo Hyun also posted a photo of himself with a bare shoulder on his personal page. This coincidental move stirred up discussions among netizens, who believed that the couple was signaling their relationship to the public. Previously, the rumored couple had attracted attention with what was perceived as lovestagram posts on their personal pages. In mid-April, Kim Ji Won posted a photo taken in front of a castle, accompanied by a series of memorable moments with Kim Soo Hyun during the filming of Queen of Tears. A few days later, Kim Soo Hyun also posted a photo outside the same castle, with a "photo spot" identical to Kim Ji Won's. However, many viewers believe that these hints are just coincidences, not enough to conclude that Kim Soo Hyun and Kim Ji Won are in a real-life relationship. Earlier, while traveling to and from Korea, Kim Ji Won wore the same pair of hiking boots. Her sudden promotion of these boots made the "shippers" of Kim Soo Hyun and Kim Ji Won excited, thinking that this was a "signal" of a romantic relationship developing between the two. Upon landing in Singapore a few days ago, Kim Ji Won was spotted switching from high heels to sneakers. At that time, netizens didn't pay much attention, simply thinking she did it for more comfortable movement. Many stars also change into comfortable outfits after taking photos with the media at the airport. But fans of the Kim-Kim couple began to suspect something. When Ji Won returned to Korea on May 15, she was still wearing these shoes. Fans quickly noticed that these were Solomon products—a brand specializing in running, cycling, and hiking gear. This was not the first time she wore shoes from this brand; previously, in a photo posted on Instagram revealing behind-the-scenes moments while filming Queen of Tears in Germany, Kim Ji Won was also seen wearing Solomon shoes. Kim Ji Won had previously expressed a desire to try hiking for a long time. Her preference for Solomon shoes in daily activities is understandable due to their comfort. But in the "eagle eyes" of the couple's fans, this could be a sign that she and Kim Soo Hyun are in a "reel to real" relationship. Fans suspect that the shoes Ji Won wore might be a gift from Kim Soo Hyun. In the special episode of Queen of Tears, Kim Soo Hyun mentioned that he had visited a zoo during the filming period in Berlin, Germany. Fans believe this period was around July when the actors had a short break. Kim Soo Hyun was also spotted shopping at a Carhartt store—the place that distributes the shoes Ji Won wore. Employees of both Kim Soo Hyun and Kim Ji Won posted photos of visiting a zoo on their days off.
Coincidentally, the Carhartt store and the Berlin Zoo are close to each other. Fans speculated that Kim Soo Hyun and Kim Ji Won were hanging out together. The actor had bought the shoes for Ji Won. Incidentally, Kim Soo Hyun has a hobby of hiking. These are just speculations from fans who hope that Kim-Kim are indeed dating after their sweet and explosive collaboration in Queen of Tears. Previously, fans also "discovered" that both shared a bodyguard. After the success of the drama, both Kim Ji Won and Kim Soo Hyun have been busy with their own schedules, so fans rarely see them together.
