In celebration of the start of the football season, Tiger Beer has unveiled a global campaign starring footballer Son Heung-Min.

‘The Golden Son’ tells the incredible story of Heung-Min’s journey and showcases all of the challenges he had to overcome to become one of the greatest footballers of the modern era. “It took them a while to notice me,” the soccer star says during the ad. “But now, they just can’t stop watching.”

He went from South Korea to a career at Premier League club Tottenham Hotspur, and in May became the first Asian player to win the Premier League’s Golden Boot for his achievements in football.
