A surprise bit of celebrity scandal unfolded at the 61st Baeksang Arts Awards on Sunday as actress Song Hye-Kyo was seen attending the prestigious event with two of her past A-list actor boyfriends, Hyun Bin and Lee Byung-hun.

Although the three stars did not appear together in any official capacity or pose for photos, their simultaneous presence at the awards show was enough to ignite widespread online speculation and social media buzz.

The ceremony, held May 5 in Seoul, marked one of the rare occasions in which the trio was seen at the same high-profile event since their respective breakups.

Fans quickly took to forums and social media platforms to dissect what many perceived as subtle tension, particularly in a moment involving Lee.

A clip circulated online showing Lee Byung-hun with a notably stiff expression as a past video of Song Hye-kyo's acceptance speech played on the large screen.

Netizens had mixed reactions to the actor's manner — some thought of him as indifferent and cold, while some dismissed it as sheer coincidence.

Meanwhile, Hyun Bin maintained a calm and neutral presence throughout the evening, garnering less attention compared to his fellow attendees.

Song, 43, remains single and a successful actor. Known for her elegance and longevity in the industry, she remains one of Korea's most beloved actresses.

Her two exes, however, have since moved on — Lee Byung-hun is married to actress Lee Min-jung and is a father to two children, while Hyun Bin tied the knot with actress Son Ye-jin in 2022 and also has a child.

Though no direct interaction between the former couples was captured during the event, their coincidental attendance proved enough to dominate headlines and fan discussions.

One user wrote, "One cold glance was all it took to send the internet into chaos."

The Baeksang Arts Awards, considered one of South Korea's most prestigious award shows honoring excellence in film, television, and theater, was otherwise filled with memorable moments — but for many viewers, this unexpected reunion stole the spotlight.
