The cast worn by Yoo Shi-jin, the lead character in the KBS drama series “Descendants of the Sun” turned out to be actor Song Joong-ki’s real-life injury, according to local media outlets.

Song Joong-ki was injured during while filming for the drama on Nov. 23, 2015. The injury left him with a fracture on his right arm along with a cruciate ligament rupture which needed eight weeks of recovery.

In the 13th episode of the drama aired last Wednesday, Yoo Shi-jin was severely wounded from a gunshot and is hospitalized. Even after being discharged from the hospital, Yoo continued to wear a cast on his right arm.

The cast may have simply looked like a prop used to make the drama seem more realistic. However, it was actually a real-life cast of the actor.

The April 4 airing of 'Yeo Yoo Man Man' was made entirely into a 'Descendants of the Sun' special, with Song Joong Ki as the main topic of course. 

Lee Jung Min, one of the announcers at 'Yeo Yoo Man Man,' relayed the account of a staff member who was in the front lines when Song Joong Ki visited the KBS 'News 9' headquarters

Lee Jung Min said, "From what I know, among the staff members, there was someone who filmed Song Joong Ki at the very front. He said he took a 20-second video and sent it to his wife. And his wife replied, 'This is the best thing you've done in your life so far.'" 

 

Lee Jung Min continued, "But that person wrote 'Song Joon Ki' instead of Song Joong Ki. So the wife told him, 'As I thought, there is no hope.'" bringing laughter.

Song Joong-ki popularity rises as companies rush to get Korean actor to endorse their products

Song Joong-ki is undoubtedly one of the most popular actors in Asia right now after his turn as a special operations soldier in the hit drama "Descendants of the Sun." The show is currently available on Viu's free K-drama streaming site Viu.com, where it is said to be the most-watched show.

The 30-year-old won the hearts of audiences with his suave portrayal of Captain Yoo Si Jin, and now, several companies are reportedly rushing to sign the actor to endorse their products. Many are thinking that having the actor onboard is a smart marketing move as Song Joong-ki is the most popular celebrity not only in his country, but also in China as well as other Asian countries.

According to Korea Times, those looking to expand their presence in China and Southeast Asia, where Song commands an enormous fan base, are eager to hire him as a commercial model despite his soaring talent fees. As of the moment, the actor already has numerous endorsement deals, which include skincare products, clothes, beer, toothpaste, and canned tuna.

An official at an unnamed company whose product appeared in the drama in the form of product placement told the website of their intention to sign Song as their model.

"The sales of our product have surged both at home and abroad after Song and other cast members were seen consuming it," said the official. "We would like to hire Song as our model. But he has become too expensive for us."

But despite his increasing talent fees, the representative said that companies will still be willing to have Song as their product endorser because "He will definitely help them raise their brand recognition and bolster sales."

The website reports that on Tuesday, April 12, an unknown cosmetics brand called Forencos became the latest company to close an advertisement deal with Song. While the company did not disclose how much it agreed to pay the actor, the company said that he will be the model of their skincare, makeup, and other beauty products.

Apart from being one of the most sought-after actors and product endorsers in Asia, Song Joong-ki has also been recently named as Korea's tourism ambassador.
