Episode Details

Son Heung-Min, South Korea’s football legend and global superstar, is set to lead his nation at the 2026 World Cup in his fourth appearance, chasing more goals and glory after already scoring three and assisting once. At 33, he holds the record for caps and ranks second all-time in national goals, and his recent $26.5M move to LAFC—MLS’s most expensive transfer—has only amplified his impact, helping the team reach the Concacaf Champions Cup semifinals. A captain, Golden Boot winner, and FIFA Puskás Award recipient, Son’s leadership and scoring prowess will be vital as South Korea faces Mexico, South Africa, and the Czech Republic in Group A, aiming to replicate their historic fourth-place finish from 2022.
