Actress Song Ji-hyo stirred up fans at a Taiwanese baseball stadium when she visited with Taiwanese actor Chen Bolin, her husband in Chinese TV variety show “We are in love: Season 2,” Saturday.

The couple from the Jiangsu TV program visited Taoyuan International Baseball Stadium in Taoyuan City, where the Lamigo Monkeys from the Chinese Professional Baseball League played. The team invited the couple to throw the game’s opening pitch.

But their publicity did not end on the mound. They attracted TV cameras by dancing with each other and acting out a steamy kissing scene behind a placard.

In hot-blue pants, a white long sleeve shirt and a white cap ― and cheering wildly with noise-maker props ― the female hallyu sensation in China from SBS variety show “Running Man” certainly seemed to enjoy her time with the Taiwanese.
