Tottenham's Son Heung-Min Given South Korea's Top Sporting Honour
Son Heung-min was awarded South Korea's highest sporting honour on Thursday after the Tottenham forward became the first Asian player to win the Premier League Golden Boot. The 29-year-old was given the Cheongnyong Medal by President Yoon Suk-yeol before South Korea's friendly against Brazil at Seoul World Cup Stadium. Son, dressed in a dark suit, walked into the packed stadium as the crowd cheered, with a banner reading: "We are living in the era of world-class Son Heung-min."
