On the day Son Heung-min led Tottenham's victory, Korean high school student Yang Min-hyuk left for England to join Tottenham.
At the age of 18, he threw a tough challenge to the Premier League as he dominated the K-League.
Reporter Cho Eun-ji went to the departure hall.

On the first day of his first trip to London, Yang Min-hyuk was half excited, half excited, half excited, and couldn't sleep watching Tottenham's early morning game.

Yang Min-hyuk, who was born in 2006, led Gangwon to the runner-up with 12 goals and 6 assists in his K League debut season.
In July, he stamped his contract with Tottenham early on, and in September, he also wore the national flag.
The 18-year-old Saebyeol, who has had a dream-like year, is full of expectations for a new start, saying, "I can't even go to the high school graduation ceremony once in my life, but I can't wait to run."

Saying that studying English is difficult, Yang Min-hyuk revealed his greetings in front of the Tottenham squad in advance and shyly.
[Yang Min-hyuk / Tottenham striker: Hello. My name is Minhyuk Yang. It's honoree to be here. Nice to meet you. This much....]
It's true that Son Heung-min is the most reliable.
Yang Min-hyuk is still having a hard time calling Son Heung-min, a 14-year-old senior, a "player," but he left a video letter saying he wants to get to know him quickly.

Yang Min-hyuk, the 16th Korean Premier Leaguer, will make his Tottenham debut as early as next month after going through procedures such as issuing visas in London.
