Jeonbuk Motors striker Lee Dong-gook has been included in South Korea's 23-man World Cup squad by coach Huh Jung-moo with Lee Keun-ho, Shin Hyung-min and Koo Ja-cheol missing out.

The former Middlesbrough frontman is set to miss South Korea's Group B opener against Greece due to a hamstring injury but has been included at the expense of Jubilo Iwata's Lee Keun-ho after Huh was assured the 31-year-old would be fit to face Argentina and Nigeria.

Oita Trinita midfielder Kim Bo-kyung has been included despite only making his international debut in January, with defender Kang Min-soo replacing Kwak Tae-hwi, who suffered a knee injury in Sunday's 1-0 defeat by Belarus.
