The Korea Times
A meeting between two global figures in Korean culture is drawing attention online, as Song Joong-ki was spotted dining with Min Jin Lee in New York. The photos were recently shared by Lee on social media, where she wrote, “Friday night. Dinner with ‘Vincenzo,’” referring to Song’s hit 2021 drama “Vincenzo,” in which he played the lead role. In the images, the actor is seen sitting with the author at a restaurant, dressed casually and smiling naturally. Another photo shows him wearing a T-shirt printed with the word “GIMBAP,” while additional shots capture him posing for the camera and spending time with acquaintances. The sighting has drawn particular interest, given Lee’s global recognition as the author of “Pachinko,” which was adapted into an internationally acclaimed Apple TV+ series. The unexpected crossover between a top K-drama star and a Korean American literary figure has fueled curiosity among fans. Lee is currently based in New York, and Song is understood to have visited the city, where the two appeared to enjoy a relaxed evening together. Online react
