Tear gas, live-fire drills, taking part in a BATTLE and rolling and crawling around fields... South Korean army reveal what Tottenham's Son Heung-min will face as returns to Asia for military training

Son Heung-min will face tear gas, take part in live-fire drills and go on a 30kilometer loaded march after the details of his three weeks of military training in South Korea were revealed.

The Tottenham striker returned to his home nation this month to take part in a period of training. All able-bodied men from the country are required to serve for two years in South Korea.

But Son received an exemption after helping his country win the gold medal at the 2018 Asian Games.
