Sports Bible, a British media outlet, reported on the 23rd (local time) that “Son Heung-min was suffering from a rare disease, although he is writing an incredible record at Tottenham.”

Although the media used the expression “rare disease,” the symptom that bothered Son Heung-min was insomnia.안전놀이터

Son Heung-min recently said in an Amazon documentary, “Even if I return home late, I often can’t sleep well because of insomnia,” adding, “If that happens at my new house, I go to the pool right away.”

“Swimming helps me with insomnia. Going to the gym (in my new house) and exercising are also helpful,” he said. “Thanks to that, I can only focus on recovery and playing games recently.”

The media added that a third of the UK’s population and about 10% of the world’s population suffer from insomnia.

Meanwhile, Son joined the Korean national team under interim coach Hwang Seon-hong for the A-match period in March. The Korean team tied the match 1-1 with Thailand in the second Asian qualifying round for the “2026 FIFA North-Central America World Cup” held at Seoul World Cup Stadium on the 21st. At the time, Son scored his 45th A-match goal.
