On his day off yesterday, Son visited a restaurant in downtown Guadalajara with his father, Son Woong-jung, and his national team teammates. His appearance was such a hot topic that a local broadcaster even covered his every move live.
[FOX Mexico Reporter: A very special guest has arrived. (Son Heung-min) ordered various tacos and guacamole, and the important thing here is that he asked them to 'hold the cilantro.']
[Alan / Restaurant Employee: He squeezed some lime juice, added the sauce, and popped it right into his mouth. Watching him eat even made my mouth water.]
A day later, the SBS reporting team visited the restaurant and received a welcome just like Son did.
[Korea! Korea! Korea!]
The restaurant staff were still visibly excited about the unbelievable experience of serving Son.
[Adrian / Restaurant Employee: Oh my god. Son Heung-min was here. His group finished all their food and drinks. It's just amazing.]
The SBS team also ordered tacos, Mexico's national dish, just like Son did.
[Lee Jung-chan / SBS Reporter: I'll go ahead and add the cilantro that Son Heung-min asked to leave out.] [Hwang In-seok / SBS Video Journalist: The scent isn't too strong, and the texture is great.]
Son's restaurant visit was also a hot topic on local social media.
Many Guadalajara citizens humorously expressed their regret that they couldn't serve him even better tacos, suggesting that there are "local gems" beyond the franchise restaurant he visited.
