After three weeks of military service at the Seogwipo naval base on the island of Jeju, the grueling closing ceremony was performed without crowds because of the corona pandemic. That didn't stop fans from showing up to try to get a glimpse of the star from the outside.
Son Heung-min received an award for being top five of 157 in the group. He had the highest marks in shooting.
Normally, Son Heung-min would have served 21 months of service but he got it reduced to 21 days after serving the country well by participating in winning the Asian Championships for South Korea 2018.
Son Heung-min will have military commitments by 2023, the AP writes, but is now free to return to London to quarantine for two weeks and then start training with Tottenham again.
The Bundesliga will start on May 16 while the Premier League has not found a start date yet.
