The suspects -- a woman in her 20s surnamed Yang and a man in his 40s surnamed Yong -- have been in custody since last month.
According to the Yonhap news agency and other local media, Yang is Son’s ex-girlfriend and allegedly extorted 300 million won ($219,000) from him by sending a foetal ultrasound image and threatening to go public with claims that she was pregnant with his child last year.
Prosecutors believe Yang later attempted to extort an additional 70 million won from Son this year in collaboration with Yong, with whom she was in a romantic relationship, according to Yonhap.
Son refused to pay the 70 million won and filed a criminal complaint against the two.
The South Korean forward has a year left on his Spurs contract and has been linked with a move to Saudi Arabia after helping the club end their 17-year trophy drought in last month’s Europa League final.
