Hwang Hee-chan’s combination of Premier League weekly miles, international goal record, and pressing engine makes him one of the most tactically valuable players in this Korea squad. He works the channels at full speed, presses for 90 minutes, and finishes with conviction when the chances arrive.

Alongside Son, he gives Korea two attackers with top-five-league rhythm — a rare luxury in their World Cup history.
