“Scoring goal in the 2018 Asian Games isn’t easy. The South Korean players know about this. I don’t need to tell each of them,” Son Heung-min said to Yonhap News.

At the same time, Son Heung-min also stated his opinion about South Korea’s opponent in the round of 16 in 2018 Asian Games, Iran. Son Heung-min believed Iran as a tough opponent.
