South Korea coach Uli Stielike is looking to unearth some new genuine options for future international tournaments at the 2015 East Asian Cup.
Stielike has picked a 23-man squad with only six players with 10 international appearances and seven yet to make their senior debut for South Korea, with the German's side set to begin the East Asian Cup against hosts China on Sunday.
South Korea made the final of this year's Asian Cup, going down 2-1 in the final to hosts Australia, and Stielike hopes to increase the depth of talent at his disposal as he looks to lead his team to the 2018 World Cup in Russia.
"Players each have different philosophies on their respective clubs," he said as quoted by Yonhap News.
"My focus will be on bringing them all on the same page."
When asked what South Korea's aim would be for the regional tournament, Stielike said: "I have to wait and see how well they can play.
"With Europe-based players, I had some sort of an idea on what to expect, but it's different with this team."
China, who were eliminated from the 2015 Asian Cup at the quarter-final stage by Australia, have selected a significantly more experienced squad for this month's event.
Both teams played their first World Cup qualifiers on the road to Russia 2018 last month, with Perrin's men thumping Bhutan 6-0 and South Korea overcoming Myanmar 2-0.
