The difference between national team players Park Ji-sung and Son Heung-min is playmaking

While Park Ji-sung didn't have overwhelming playmaking abilities like Messi or Zidane, he was a "small hexagon" player who had everything a player needs.
At Manchester United, he seemed like a somewhat unrefined defensive winger who focused mainly on defending, but whenever he joined the national team, he looked like Korea's Zidane... It was fascinating every time I watched him.
On the other hand, Son Heung-min is the type of player whose stats are heavily concentrated in counterattacks, shooting, and finishing.
Because of this, a player's club market value is naturally Son Heung-min >>> Park Ji-sung, but his value to the national team was higher for Park.
To use NBA basketball as an example, Park Ji-sung is a swingman who is a bench player, while Son Heung-min is a spot-up shooter who is a starter.
In this case, the starter Son Heung-min would have a much higher salary and value, but when it comes to the Korean national team, it's like how the value of the bench player Park Ji-sung is higher.
Korea needs a player who can dribble through defenses and provide passes, but a spot-up shooter is a player who excels at receiving passes, which is why his value is lower for the Korean national team.
Ultimately, I believe the difference in whether or not they possess playmaking ability influenced the evaluation of their performances for the national team.
