Dozen K League players have been selected for Robert Moreno's first Korean squad as the interim head coach for the men's national football team. Moreno, who was named on September 1, unveiled a 30-man squad for the team's upcoming matches against Ecuador, Uruguay, Venezuela, and Uzbekistan. The presence of 12 K League players in the squad is a larger-than-usual share compared to previous selections, such as the 2022 FIFA World Cup, where only seven players from the K League were included.
The roster features several established names, including captain Son Heung-min, defender Kim Min-jae, and midfielders Lee Kang-in and Hwang In-beom. Additionally, Moreno has included three first-timers: Incheon United defender Kim Geon-hui, Gimcheon Sangmu midfielder Park Tae-jun, and Rangers midfielder Kim Min-su.
