Heung-min Son is a South Korean professional footballer who operates as a winger for the South Korean national team and currently the main forward for Tottenham Hotspur. He has firmly established himself as one of the first names in Ange Postecoglou’s teamsheet, and with Harry Kane leaving for Bayern Munich, and is the talisman for Spurs currently.
The South Korean has been in trailblazing form this season and the arrival of the Aussie Ange Postecoglou from Celtic has really lit a fire under Son’s belly (or foot or head). For the first time in his career, Heung-min Son has played as the main centre forward for his team. It’s difficult to believe but Son has been so good that Tottenham fans have not even missed Harry Kane’s absence.
However, knowing more about the South Korean footballer is not why you are here. The Tottenham Hotspur forward is famous for being a private person and there are reports of the player following what his parents want. Infact, in 2019, Son confirmed he would not marry until he retired from the sport.
The personality Heung-min Son is most famous for dating is Yoo So-young. She is a famous actor in South Korea and is really popular and not just with the footballer. Apart from Yoo So-Young, he was rumoured to be dating another popular actress Kim Go Eun. However, this news has been shot down by Kim Go Eun’s BH Entertainment and they confirmed that there is no relationship between the two.
It certainly seems like Heung-min Son has a type, eh?
