Faker and Son Heung-min Team Up for Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Commercial

South Korean pop culture icons Faker and Son Heung-min recently appeared in a series of SK telecom 5GX commercials to promote the new Samsung Galaxy Note 20, Cloud Gaming Services, and Xbox Game Pass.

In the commercials, Faker, a renowned mid laner in the game League of Legends, and Son Heung-min, a talented soccer player, take a break from their professional lives to showcase the features of the new 120Hz Samsung phones. The duo can be seen joking around in a game store, a living room, and even outdoors.

Entertaining Reactions from Faker and Son Heung-min

In each commercial, Faker acts shocked and opens his mouth wide in astonishment, while Son Heung-min grins from ear to ear. The international stars have plenty of time on their hands as Faker awaits the LCK Summer Split playoffs and Son Heung-min takes a break from the Premier League offseason.

Shared Commercial Stints for Faker and Son Heung-min

Interestingly, the Samsung commercials aren’t the only advertisements that Faker and Son Heung-min have both appeared in. Earlier this year, Faker promoted his own ice cream flavors in a Lotte’s World Cone commercial, while Son Heung-min danced in a peculiar ice cream commercial called “Super Son Super Cone.”

Faker will soon be playing in the first round of the LCK playoffs against Afreeca Freecs on August 26th, while Son Heung-min is expected to return to action for the 2020-21 Premier League season starting on September 12th when Tottenham Hotspur faces Everton.
