Song Joong Ki and Song Hye Kyo’s divorce was finalized more than a month ago, but people are still talking about their split.

Song Joong Ki and Song Hye Kyo have separated quietly without revealing their thoughts on their split but surely they have been affected emotionally by this event in their lives. The actress was always pictured smiling during her promotional activities but no one can say if she’s really smiling inside as well.
As for the actor, he took a short break following his divorce and judging by how he lost weight; he suffered emotionally as well. It was also reported that he has been losing hair which is a sure sign of anxiety and even depression but he is coping.
How the actors are affected financially
Song Joong Ki and Song Hye Kyo have successful careers but it was reported that the actor is taking a hit financially too. This is because he is losing advertising tie-ups after their divorce was made known to the public.
On the other hand, the actress was able to maintain all her endorsement deals and companies did not ask her to leave despite the divorce. It was said that the actor is affected more financially because he lost some projects for company or product advertisements. People believe that this happened to Joong Ki and not Hye Kyo because he was the one who filed for divorce.

They were able to split amicably without damaging each other’s career and reputation. They are in the process of moving on already as both of them return to their respective work schedules.
