According to Chinese locals, Song Hye-kyo was offered a car commercial for Mitsubishi China. She was offered a large sum of money but she refused.

Mitsubishi is notorious for its forced labor during the Japanese Invasion and several victims of Mitsubishi are still at court with this issue. Song Hye-kyo decided she couldn't be the face of a criminal company and stuck to her convictions by refusing the offer.

Song Hye-kyo has been acting on concept since a while ago as she has been promoting the Korean culture and history along with Korean promotions specialist, Seo Kyeong-deok. This is why her rejection to the offer is more of a big deal.

The actions of a Hallyu star are watched by the whole world. One must be careful when it comes to making even the smallest decisions. Therefore, before a star yells in joy at the amount of money offered, he or she needs to remember that he or she is the face of Korea and take responsibility for following actions.
