[헤럴드경제=박승원 기자]Park Ji-seong and his Son Heung-min, the former and current ‘captains’ who wrote a new history of Korean football, seem to be tight rivals not only in football but also in property real estate and other financial technologies.

In the 109th episode of KBS 2TV’s ‘Year-Round Plus’, broadcast on the 17th, a rivalry developed between two football legends Park Ji-sung and Son Heung-min.

Son Heung-min’s weekly salary is over 300 million won, which is equivalent to an annual salary of about 15 billion won.

In addition, he became Asia’s top scorer in the Premier League and ranked 11th in Ballon d’Or 2022, the highest Asian player ever. He was also awarded the FIFA Puskas Award.

Due to this ‘Son Heung-min effect’, the advertising video in which he appeared achieved 10 million views in the shortest period of time for the first time in the financial sector, and the ice cream he modeled increased sales by 80% of his compared to the previous year.
