Tottenham Hotspur star Son Heung-min will be spending four weeks of his break from Premier League to fulfil his military obligations in South Korea.
Males under 28 are expected to spend 21 months in the South Korean military, but Son was given an exemption after leading his country to gold in the Asian Games in 2018.
However, Son still had to complete four-weeks military service, originally planned for this summer.
With games suspended, Spurs have given permission for Son to complete the training.
Malik Ouzia from the London Evening Standard has explained just what that training will entail.
"Son's training is set to take place on a naval base on Jeju Island, south of the Korean Peninsula. The island boasts a 6,400ft volcano called Hallasan, which is also the highest mountain in the country, and has a milder climate than the mainland at this time of year."
And what will he have to do?
"Well, before anything else, get a trim. All military recruits must have a sensible, tidy haircut of a few centimetres in length, but the marines insist upon an even shorter, shaved cut. According to reports, the hair is kept in sealed bags to be sent to the families of soldiers killed while on duty in situations where their bodies are irretrievable.
"South Korean platform Naver suggests a whole host of intense exercises then await, including close combat sparring, weapons training and crawling under barbed wire - none of them ideal, given Son has just returned from a broken arm. One of the activities that the 27-year-old may find 'easier', given his Premier League fitness, is a 6-7km march in full combat gear weighing around 24kg.
"First-hand accounts tend to agree, however, that the most daunting part of the entire experience is an exercise which involves navigating a sealed building filled with tear gas, which trainees enter wearing masks but are then told to take off by instructors."
