On the March 3 airing of MBC's 'I Live Alone', Kim Yeon Kyung and a fellow volleyball player Ma Yunwen went to eat out at a hot pot restaurant in Shanghai. 

The waitress of the restaurant revealed she's a fan of Song Joong Ki. Hearing this, Kim Yeon Kyung recalled the time she met his wife Song Hye Kyo at the 'Korea-China Economic Partnership' event in Beijing. The athlete then turned to the waitress and said, "I'm best friends with Song Hye Kyo", and said, "I meet her sometimes." 

She even showed the selfie she took with the Hallyu star, even though they aren't "best friends" in reality. Do you ever make cute bluffs like Kim Yeon Kyung?
