Actress Song Ji Hyo’s Refreshing Thoughts On Dating, Marriage, And More
On Running Man, actress Song Ji Hyo revealed her thoughts on marriage, dating, and what she looks for in her ideal type of partner.
In the episode, Song Ji Hyo went on a mock blind date with Running Man‘s Sung Si Kyung and Lee Yong Jin. During the date, she said she is not too fond of the idea of being set up with men. According to actress Jeon So Min, Song Ji Hyo prefers “meeting people at her own pace.”
I don’t like the awkward air that happens at blind dates. As soon as I sit down, I start wanting to go home.

And while Song Ji Hyo isn’t actively looking to date or marry…
Song Ji Hyo: It’s common for people my age to think about marriage. We have had our shares of relationships. We also have friends who are settling down. So…
Lee Yong Jin: So you’re not looking to date for a long time then? Would you like to tie the knot quickly if you find the right person?
Song Ji Hyo: But I don’t want marriage to become the only purpose of my relationship.
… she revealed that she does have certain expectations. When asked to describe their perfect partner, many celebrities list physical attributes–such as height or hair length–or general personality traits, such as a good sense of humor or kindness. When asked about her ideal type, Song Ji Hyo gave a refreshing, specific answer; she looks for a man who can apologize. Jeon So Min strongly agreed that knowing when and how to apologize is an incredibly crucial factor for a relationship to work.
I hope that my future partner knows and understands how to feel sorry [when needed].
