Son Heung Min, a South Korean soccer star of Tottenham Hotspur in England, has hit his own career-high after his military service. In April 2020, Son has completed the three weeks of his mandatory national military service in Korea and returned to England as Premier League restarted. After he returned to his team, he hasn’t scored for a while. However, he scored and assisted once each against Arsenal on the 12th of July 2020. This became his 9th goal in the season. As he scored again against New Castle in 15th of July, he has hit his own career-high that is 11 goals and 10 assists and joined Kevin De Bruyne of Manchester City (11 goals and 18 assists) as the only two of Premier League player this season with at least 10 goals and 10 assists.

By his fantastic talents, he has won so many awards such as best footballers in Asia three times, in 2017, 2018, and 2019. He awarded the Premier League’s goal of the month and goal of the season by wonderful solo goal in 3-1 home win over Chelsea in November 2018. Also in the 2018 Asian game in Indonesia, he won the gold medal with his national team. Besides these awards, he has won plenty of awards in his career. These records show that Son is one of the best football players in the world.

People often ask who is better, Son or Park Ji Sung who played for Manchester United a few years ago. Some people say Son is the best, and others say Park is the best.

In my opinion, this is not a very wise discussion. Because they are both the best players that people can never say no. Their abilities, skills, talents show and prove themselves why they’ are the best players in South Korea and even in the world. They proved their ability in sports and made a great reputation of South Korea at the same time by making many Europeans get to know better on Korea. Son is now at the top of his career, his future steps are attracting more and more attention.
