Broadcaster Jang Seongkyu witnessed actor Song Joong‑ki and his wife KT Lewis Saunders attending an official event together.
On the 19th, Jang Seongkyu posted on his social account, "I went to see Gaon Soloists' chamber orchestra performance in commemoration of Disability Day. I had a prejudice in thinking that the performances by friends with physical disabilities would not be this high in quality. I cried throughout the beautiful performance. How much effort must have gone into this performance," along with photos.
Gaon Soloists is an integrated chamber music ensemble founded in 2021 in which musicians with disabilities and musicians without disabilities perform together; centered on music director and violist Kim Yu‑young, it is composed of professional classical performers active at home and abroad and holds regular concerts.
On the 18th, at the IBK Chamber Hall of the Seoul Arts Center in Seocho District, Seoul, Gaon Soloists held its 7th regular concert "Kinderszene," where Song Joong‑ki and KT attended as narrators in the first act. Not only the two of them, but musical actor Kim So Hyun and violist Shin Yun‑hwang made special appearances in the second act, adding significance.
In particular, the event attracted attention because it was the first official appearance the couple Song Joong‑ki and KT attended together. The two took photos with children and drew attention with a striking presence even in group photos. Although Song Joong‑ki and KT were not standing side by side, the two who stood in front of and behind each other made way so the protagonists could shine more.
Jang Seongkyu said, "The couple Song Joong‑ki, who joined as narrators, and actress Kim So Hyun, who joined with a wonderful song, were truly impressive. It was a time to feel and learn many things."
Song Joong‑ki and KT met through an introduction by an acquaintance in 2021 and became a couple; the following year they revealed their relationship and in 2023 reported their marriage registration and pregnancy. After giving birth to a son in June 2023, they welcomed a daughter in November 2024.
