While Son has been romantically linked to Korean pop singers Bang Min-ah and Yoo So-young in the past, he has publicly stated his intention to postpone marriage until his retirement from professional football.
He said in 2019, "My father says this and I agree, as well. When you marry, the number one will be family, wife and kids, and then football. I want to make sure that while I play at the top level, football can be number one.
"You don’t know how long you can play at the top level. When you retire, or when you are 33 or 34, you can still have a long life with your family."
The two individuals have been apprehended, one for allegedly attempting extortion and the other in connection with the incident.
