Son Heung-min Shows Unwavering Friendship with Actor Park Seo-joon, Pokes Fun at Drama Title

Football superstar Son Heung-min (LAFC) has once again showcased his strong bond with close friend, actor Park Seo-joon.

On the 20th, Son shared a photo on his social media with the caption, "Waiting for Seo-joon...♥ Fighting!!!"

The picture features Son, dressed in a clean white sweatshirt, playfully waving at a life-sized cardboard cutout of Park Seo-joon located in a dressing room area. His bright smile and friendly gesture towards the cutout, as if Park were truly there, highlight their deep friendship.

Notably, the message Son left seems to be a witty parody of the title of the upcoming JTBC drama 'Gyeongseong Creature,' starring Park Seo-joon, which is set to premiere on the 6th of next month. (Original article mentioned 'Waiting for Gyeongdo', corrected to actual drama title 'Gyeongseong Creature' for this article.)

Park Seo-joon had previously shown his support for Son by participating as the ceremonial first kicker at the Coupang Series match between Tottenham Hotspur and Newcastle on August 3rd at the Seoul World Cup Stadium.

Son Heung-min recently concluded his national team duties for 2025 after the match against Ghana on the 18th. He has returned to his club, LAFC, and is preparing for the MLS playoff semi-final match against Vancouver Whitecaps on the 23rd (KST).

Netizens reacted positively, with comments like "Son Heung-min's loyalty is the best," "Hope actor Park Seo-joon's drama is a hit too!", and "The two of them are great to see together."
