Contract until 2023.Am I the only one who's scared that these European performances of Sonny are going to catch the eye of those jerks in Spain?
As an Asian, I can reaffirm there is not much representation of us in the wider media like big movies (even the MCU has a movie about Black Panther but the only Asian we have is fucking Wong?)and football (the most popular sport) aside from the typical stereotypes.
For people like you to simplify it by saying "omg these korean fans are not loyal" is you basically taking something for granted that as a white person that you do not have to deal with or suffer a lot less from.
The simple answer is that up until last summer there was always the near inevitable military service looming. So most of the biggest clubs did not want to go for him.All our players and our manager are constantly linked with big money moves to Europe's biggest clubs , why never Sonny he's class

I've always thought that this would be the case if he would've been Brazilian and named Soninho for exampleAll our players and our manager are constantly linked with big money moves to Europe's biggest clubs , why never Sonny he's class
But once you have become a fan of a team, it's pretty bad form to then just ditch that team in favour of a new one just because the player you liked got transferred.
I'd like you to consider Ronaldo's move to Real Madrid from Manchester United. Do you believe that a ton of people who had become United fans suddenly became Madrid fans just because their favorite player had moved? If they did, then to be perfectly honest with you I reckon most football fans would write them off as plastic, and yes, to a certain degree disloyal.
The Korean Crouch
Another example. Let's say you're Mercedes fan in F1 and you hate Ferrari and Vettel. And Vettel suddenly moves to Mercedes and Hamilton goes to Ferrari. now you're cheering for Vettel and start hating Hamilton? Can you blame anyone for being loyal to the team or the player?
He did break his arm on national duty just as the 17-18 season started. But he only missed a week or two before he was back playing with a cast.Must say one of the things that I feel relieved about in the midst of our another injury crisis is that Son has been remarkably durable over the last few seasons. I actually can’t remember him being off injured for quite a long time, in fact I can’t remember any injuries other than his first season when he was off for plantar fasciitis.
Ever since then he’s pretty much been available every time when Harry has been injured to fill the centre forward spot, Son and Eriksen pretty much seems to play almost every game every season. And this is considering he played way more games with tighter schedules than everyone else with his Asian games and whatnot.
This Does not comment on his performance issues but I must say it is comforting that he’s available whether he’s playing well or not.
I disagree. Vast majority of "nationwide" fans of Chicago Bulls faded as soon as Michael Jordan retired. As with Wayne Gretzky. Joe Montana...Just like how supporters for a PL team can be found all over the country, in the US the NFL teams likewise have support nationwide, which typically doesn't change just because a star player is no longer playing, so I don't buy the geography angle.
In fact, taking your Manchester United example, if you're only supporting United because SAF/Ronaldo is there and they're winning things, but lose interest when that stops, isn't that the very definition of glory-hunting?
