It’s not a question of us fans doing it, more the Korean media, the media here. All he’s gonna get is comparisons. He’ll have to be strong minded.I don't see why we have to compare him to Son just because they have the same nationality.

That whole genre of Tactico fans needs to be culled. Most annoying section of football Twitter by a mile. No surprises that the Woolwich nomads have more of those accounts than others
It’s unfair but it is what it is. The best way around it is for him to not being the next Son, but the first Yang.I don't see why we have to compare him to Son just because they have the same nationality.
Son is the measuring stick over there and so he should be!
Korea, China and Japan all share similarities since they are all neighbors. Probably was passed onto Korea thousands of years ago. Just like Europeans share similarities with each other.Nah, that's just a subliminal PEPSI logo with stripes on!!

I know what you mean, and yes, it does definitely have a Yin/Yang symbol...
Maybe THEY stole the idea from the Chinese???
Or maybe, just MAYBE, they all have similar philosophies based on the same original beliefs??
I assume Yang, like we call Son Son and not Heung.
I'm SORRY, but you just can't SAY that anymore!!Korea, China and Japan all share similarities since they are all neighbors. Probably was passed onto Korea thousands of years ago. Just like Europeans share similarities with each other.
90% (or more) of Koreans have two syllable first names — single syllables are a little more popular with the younger generation. There are no middle names. Family members are more likely to call someone by the second syllable of the first name.Son Heung Min’s family name Son , so it’s likely that his family addresses him as ‘Min’.
Yang Min-Hyuk’s family name is Yang. So for the non- Korean fans, they would likely address him as ‘Yang’ .
I just want to know what's going to be on his shirt.Son Heung Min’s family name Son , so it’s likely that his family addresses him as ‘Min’.
Yang Min-Hyuk’s family name is Yang. So for the non- Korean fans, they would likely address him as ‘Yang’ .
How bout Yangy?
I've already decided it's Yangie - same sound, different spelling.
What rhymes with Yang or Yangie?
Yangie with that Fury... probably anything that ends in a Y or IE?
Totally correct mate.People look at comps all wrong. Everyone looks good in highlights (apart from Emerson) but I look at things like ballstriking, aggression, agility close control etc. the level of the opposition has little effect on these things.
