Son Heung-min, captain of the South Korean national soccer team and an All-Star in Major League Soccer (MLS) with LAFC, has been spotted wearing a ring on his left hand's ring finger, fueling marriage rumors.
On July 28, various social media platforms circulated a video captured by a fan showing Son wearing a ring on his left hand's ring finger. In the video, he is seen interacting naturally with fans while wearing the ring, drawing attention.
Some internet users speculated that the ring is from the French luxury jewelry brand Boucheron. The ring in question is identified as the Boucheron 'Quatre Radiant Edition Wedding Band,' valued at approximately 9.7 million won.
Notably, Son has been seen wearing the ring alone in private settings, while at official events, he has layered it with a Tiffany & Co. ring he has worn previously. This has led some netizens to suggest that he may be intentionally concealing it in formal situations.
This is not the first time marriage rumors have surrounded Son. In 2022, a ring was also spotted on his left hand's ring finger upon his arrival at an airport, sparking similar speculation. The same suspicions resurfaced in 2023.
Additionally, Son's recent statement in an interview, where he expressed a desire to be a good father, has further fueled the marriage speculation.
However, some voices caution against overinterpretation. Son is known for his attractive hands and has worked as a model for various jewelry brands.
Most netizens have reacted with comments such as, "It's about time Son Heung-min got married," "Wearing it alone in private seems significant," "His statement about wanting to be a good father raises more questions," "Son has always liked rings, so this might be overanalyzed," and "We should wait for confirmed facts before jumping to conclusions."
