Netizens have spotted newly-wed couple Song Joong Ki and Song Hye Kyo in Seville, Spain over a week after their wedding.

Sources who saw the world-famous Korean couple said they rode a horse-drawn carriage around town like ordinary tourists. One fan claims to have been able to congratulate Joong Ki on his marriage, and that the 32-year-old actor responded with a smile and a "thank you."

Joong Ki and Hye Kyo tied the knot on Oct. 31 at The Shilla Hotel in Seoul. It was the most star-studded Korean wedding of the year, the couple being two of the hottest stars in Asia.

The wedding was a very exclusive affair, so, of course, fans were all over it.

The Song-Song wedding broke the Internet. Photos of the event circulated worldwide, with fans congratulating the newly-wed. Some of them can be seen below.

Her simple, low-cut gown was also a show-stealer. It has since been revealed that Christian Dior made the haute couture masterpiece. It was custom-designed by no other than the brand's artistic director Maria Grazia Chiuri, who also designed Miranda Kerr's gown for her wedding with Evan Spiegel in July.

A few days later, Hye Kyo thanked the fans for their heartwarming support through her own post on Instagram.

Joong Ki and Hye Kyo have had their fair share of the spotlight in previous years. But it was not until "Descendants of the Sun" that the Song-Song couple soared to global fame. At the time of its premiere in February 2016, it was the most expensive Korean drama to be streamed in neighboring China, at $250,000 per episode.

Set in the fictional military base of Urk, the series tells the story of a doctor (Hye Kyo) who saves lives, and a soldier (Joong Ki) who is trained to take the lives of enemies. Despite their opposing views, they were able to find love in each other.

While dating rumors about the couple have been circulating since last year, it was not until earlier this year that they revealed the truth. In July 2017, the couple surprised the world by not only confirming the dating rumors, but also announcing that they are getting married before the year ends.
