The sight of James Maddison was too much for one South Korean Tottenham fan to handle as Spurs touched down in the country to an incredible reception.
Owing to the near God-like status of Spurs skipper Son Heung-min in his homeland, Tottenham enjoy a huge following in South Korea and the level of affection for its players was evident as they continued their pre-season tour of Asia.
In scenes akin to the Beatles' 1964 arrival in the United States, Tottenham' stars were welcomed by a throng of passionate supporters desperate for pictures, autographs and in at least one case, to give a gift.
Such was the case for one supporter who broke down in tears after handing Maddison what appeared to be a large framed painting of the England international kissing the Europa League trophy the club sealed last term.
In a state of shock, the whimpering of the supporter, barely in control of his motor functions, did not stop even when posing for a photo with the 28-year-old.
Skipper Son unsurprisingly received the greatest reception but there was still plenty of affection to go around for the likes of Lucas Bergvall, Richarlison and Pedro Porro, who were all beckoned to sign autographs by the adoring masses.
Spurs made short trip from Hong Kong to Seoul after their 1-0 win over bitter rivals Arsenal at the Kai Tak Sports Stadium on Thursday.
The squad will face Newcastle at Seoul's World Cup Stadium on Sunday afternoon, which could be final time supporters get to see Son in a Tottenham shirt amid continued uncertainty over his future in North London.
The 33-year-old is wanted by MLS side LAFC and Spurs will not stand in his way if he wants to leave and a deal can be struck.
There has been no formal bid from the MLS club, but there has been contact to declare an interest in signing the forward as they search for a new star striker after losing former Arsenal and Chelsea centre forward Olivier Giroud to Lille.
LAFC are reported to be preparing a deal in the region of £15-20million which could be enough to tempt Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy into talks.
Son is into the final year of his contract in North London and having scored 173 goals in 454 games and lifted the Europa League in May his status as a legend in N17 is guaranteed.
He has been a commercial phenomenon and there was no prospect of him leaving before the pre-season tour to Asia.
Once they return, the question of his exit will become more urgent.
Spurs will take account of everything Son has done for the club. If it is a move he wants to happen they will try to help him achieve it, although Levy will not allow that to undermine any fee.
There is new chapter unfolding under Thomas Frank, who did little to quell the feeling Son would leave the club before end of the transfer window when he spoke earlier this month.
Tottenham jet off to Germany for their final pre-season fixture against Bayern Munich next week ahead of the UEFA Super Cup against Paris Saint-Germain in Udine on August 13.
