South Korean star Song Joong-ki and his wife, British former actress Katy Louise Saunders, welcomed their son last June, and like many celebs, he is fiercely protective of his family’s privacy.
Since the baby's birth, Song, 38, has only shared a photo of the newborn’s hand and has not revealed the boy's name.
Recently, a fan who ran into Song and his family at a park in South Korea, shared a video of their encounter online.
Though Song was casually dressed in a T-shirt, jeans and cap, he was spotted by passers-by and the family of three attracted quite a bit of attention.
Song greeted the public politely and graciously obliged to photos with fans.
However, when a camera panned to his wife and 11-month-old son, Song leapt into "protective husband and dad mode" and waved his hands signalling for the fan to stop.
The fan respected his wishes by covering his wife's face with a diamond sticker.
The media and public have long been curious about what Song's son looks like.
He once revealed in an interview that he’s been told how much his son's lips look like his.
“That's what people tell me about my son, eight out of 10 times," he said proudly.
"Hearing such words was both flattering and incredible. It made me look closer at his lips.”
Song confirmed his relationship with Saunders in December 2022 and announced a month later that they were married and expecting a child together.
He was married to actress Song Hye Kyo for two years. They divorced in 2019.
