LONDON A half-hour or thus after Tottenham Hotspur had edged out Manchester City in the first leg of their Champions League quarter-final, the club's other stadium was every but empty.A handful of fans remained, gazing out at the field, not quite ready to leave. Most of them had arrive to look Son Heung-min.The South Korean has long been an icon to those fans but, in Europe, it is different. There has never been any doubt more or less his talent, but it was not until those few weeks following he went supernova - that England, and Europe, started to afford Son the star treatment: the speak to whose absence is worth fretting over, the artist who might lead his team to the Champions League title.On the day of the resolved next to Liverpool in which he might paste his place as a global superstar, it is worth asking why.In the summer of 2013, Bayer Leverkusen was short of a main sponsor. That June, at a cost of a club-record 10 million (S$15.4 million), the German team signed Son from Hamburg. In August that year, Leverkusen inked a three-year agreement following LG, the South Korean electronics firm, following Son becoming a brand ambassador. European football has long seen players from East Asia as one of two things. One is, essentially, a habit not handily of winning the hearts and minds of the big audience manageable in Japan, South Korea and, especially China, but of attracting sponsors from those markets, too.The other acuteness is, perhaps, best illustrated by the accomplishment of Park Ji-sung, the former Manchester joined midfielder.ROLE MODELSThere is a habit of looking at Korean or Japanese players that is the construction of an Asian masculine subject through the lens of the stereotype of the 'obedient citizen'.LIM HYUN-JOO, sociology lecturer, on the agreeable ways Asian players are viewed in Europe."Park was seen as a fine artist in England but, in many ways, he was invisible," said Lim Hyun-joo, a senior lecturer in sociology at Bournemouth University. "I was stunned by the reception in Korea: every the people went insane for him. It was a resolved contrast."Park spent seven years at dated Trafford, and was held in high adulation by both fans and his manager, Alex Ferguson. Park's virtues were not necessarily similar to his talents, though: He was cherished for his industry, his energy, his discipline. He would often be tasked following man-marking the opposition's biggest threat.It was a accomplishment examination of how Europe views Asian players: they might sell jerseys, tickets and backing deals off the arena but, on it, they are - first and foremost - fine workers."It is the idea of the model minority," Lim said. "The coverage of Son that I've admission has focused a lot on his hard work, his discipline, his filial piety."It is not necessarily conscious, not a deliberate try to devalue him. But there is a habit of looking at Korean or Japanese players that is the construction of an Asian masculine subject through the lens of the stereotype of the 'obedient citizen'."Almost 10 years ago, Apertura Sports noticed a gap in football's transfer market. More and more German clubs were hoping to win fans and flyer backing in Japan, South Korea and China.The quickest route to a big other audience seemed to be importing a player, a local hero, but few teams had the familiarity or completion to recruit following much confidence. Apertura established to be the bridge.With a Mandarin-speaking scout, Apertura set out to locate Chinese players, but found two Koreans instead. It pitched them to German clubs, but the reply was hardly effusive."A lot of clubs were not essentially responsive," said Johannes Graf Strachwitz, one of Apertura's co-founders. "They nice of waved the idea of signing Koreans off."Europe's scepticism more or less Asian players - that they were either fine workers, or highly-paid billboards - was deep-seated.In 2003, Lee Young-pyo, a star of the Korean 2002 World cup squad, joined the Dutch team PSV Eindhoven, along following Park.Lee knew he had the faith of his coach: PSV's Guus Hiddink had, after all, guided that South Korea team to the World cup semi-finals."He knew me well," Lee said. "However, my teammates had swing thoughts more or less me."By his own estimation, it took him a year or thus to win them over."I had to aim the stereotype of an Asian player, and it took quite a get older to prove my completion to my fellow teammates," he said.The stereotype persists, though. Even now, Apertura finds that clubs have a "specific idea" of the type of artist they might locate in Asia."They look them as dedicated, reliable, hard-working, respectful of older people, and never a hardship for a coach," Strachwitz said.In Son's case, of course, that is every true, but it does not start to reach justice to the full range of his abilities as a player.The longer he demonstrates that, the more likely it is that clubs will start to disregard it, that they will look in Korea and Japan not just for disciplined and trustworthy workers, but for potential superstars, too.Son is nevertheless subject to the stereotype. In time, he may nevertheless be the man to rupture it.NYTIMES
