Walker, during his time at Tottenham, was shocked by how South Korea star Son Heung-min was swarmed by fans in his home country during a pre-season tour.
Walker, on his new BBC podcast 'You'll Never Beat Kyle Walker', said: "Sonny is so nice. We would do an appearance, me, Sonny, Ben Davies, Kevin Wimmer and we'd have to send a dummy vehicle pretending that Sonny has gone.
"All these people would start running, they'd corner the vehicle, see Sonnys not in there and we'd be away.
"Then they'd come back to the hotel we were staying in and all night they'd be there. I've never seen anything like it.
"Never seen anything like it. Have seen it with Wayne Rooney, Frank Lampard and Beckham to a certain degree."
Walker has launched a podcast with Love Island star Chris Hughes to mark a new step in his career.
Walker - who has just welcomed his newborn son Rezon into the world - launched the pod ahead of England's Euro 2024 campaign.
The full-back has been a regular in Gareth Southgate's squad in the 2018 and 2022 World Cups as well as the delayed Euros in 2021.
