How pairings (from TV shows, movies, etc.) are named in Korean.

What made me think about this, in fact, is the Han Joo Won/Lee Dong Sik pairing from Beyond Evil. As many might already know, it is commonly called "JWDS" in English and "주원동식" in Korean. However, does "JWDS" indicate that Joo Won is the top in the relationship? Because it explicitly does with "주원동식."

In Korean fandoms, it is sort of a rule to put the name of the top first, and then the name of the bottom when naming a slash pairing. For example, if you intend to inteprete Joo Won and Dong Sik's relationship as top!Dong Sik and bottom!Joo Won, the pairing should be called "동식주원." Even if the two characters do not appear to be sexually intimate in a fanfic/fanvid, the name shows how the writer/maker sees what their positions in bed eventually would be -- or, who the more "dominant" one would be/who would lead the relationship.

This way of naming pairings in Korean is much easier comparing to the one in English because typical Korean names almost always consist of a one-syllable family name + a two-syllable name. Other examples of pairing names than "주원동식" are:

요한가온 = top!Kang Yo Han x bottom!Kim Ga On

도영동수 = top!Seo Do Young x bottom!Han Dong Soo

Then what about when one of the characters has a one-syllable name? In this case, usually their full name is put in the pairing name. For instance:

최윤화평 = top!Choi Yoon x bottom!Yoon Hwa Pyung

남신영훈 = top!Nam Shin x bottom!Ji Young Hoon

서휘선호 = top!Seo Hwi x bottom!Nam Seon Ho (I saw some fic writers use "휘선호" though)

Lastly, when both of the characters have a one-syllable name? Yep, full name + full name.

이곤조영 = top!Lee Gon x bottom!Jo Yeong

Immortal Being that Still Somehow has Parent Issues: Myul Mang/Doom (Doom at your Service) Lee Yeon & Lee Rang (Tale of the Nine Tailed) Jeong Gu-won (My Demon)

Added trauma flavour: Parent was murdered in front of them (**Still counts if they survived the murder Parent tried to murder them Dying from seemingly incurable disease which makes their parents/guardian sad (If your parents are alive, you must pay for it by dying yourself) Adoptive parent/stepparent is THE WORST

Somehow has normal, alive parents: Lee Jun-ho (Extraordinary Attorney Woo, Has no backstory at all. We only meet his older sister and hear nothing about his childhood.) Shin Ha-ri (Business Proposal, her family is refreshingly normal, right down to her brother being sent out to find her when she's drunk) Oh Han-byeol (Sh**ting Stars, Again, we know almost nothing about her family, only that she has twin sisters. But she doesn't appear to have childhood trauma.) Park Yeon-woo (The Story of Park's Marriage Contract, her mom being annoyed at her for something that is a crime doesn't count as bad parenting) Lee Young-joon/Sung-hyun (What's Wrong with Secretary Kim, his trauma comes from a kidnapper, his parents faced a pretty impossible situation and did their best. They clearly love their kids) Baek Hyun-woo (Queen of Tears, nothing wrong with them out of the ordinary and they are in the drama a significant amount.) Ha Eun-gyeol (Twinkling Watermelon, very loving parents and the deafness and their reliance on him is not anyone's fault)

*Counting her as an orphan even though she gets her parents back after 20 years, she spent her childhood orphaned. ***This character is tricky because I understand why her mother wanted nothing to do with her, but her trying to manipulate the dad and also saying he didn't raise her properly made me so angry. Uncatagorized due to lack of clarity on parents: Soundtrack #1, Hospital Playlist, Happiness

1997.02 Star Live Concert Magazine - Hamo Hamo article

Scans credit: I don't know, man, I just got this off Pinterest and Google image search didn't give me anything...

A talented group formed through public auditioning Hamo Hamo "Scary rookies" discovered by Sobangcha

Less than a month since the release of the song "Papillon (His Headache Was Freedom)," which elicits an odd but entertaining power of imagination, the male dance duo Hamo Hamo have been well received and fans are burning with curiosity. Coverage: Min Seon-hwa / Photography: Choi Yonggi

Hamo Hamo, who've proven popular mainly in downtown Seoul, are quickly gaining fans with "Papillon (His Headache Was Freedom)," a classic Miami bass dance track with a bright and easy melody. Behind Hamo Hamo's popularity is the knowledge that Sobangcha's Jung Wonkwan and Kim Taehyung have gained from their many years as singers. Jung and Kim had already set their eyes on former Solid backup dancer Chun Myunghoon; through an audition, they chose the beautifully voiced Lee Sungjin and put their heart into making Hamo Hamo the second Sobangcha.

The name Hamo Hamo was one Jung and Kim had once used while active as DJs, meaning "that's right" in Gyeongsang-do dialect. Chun Myunghoon explained that it's a Korean word which is easy to remember and has a positive meaning, so it also sounds good to the ear. Thanks to their group name, the number of fans in cities such as Daegu and Busan in the Gyeongsang-do Province is skyrocketing, already inaugurating their line of support.

Lee Sungjin, the group's lead singer, had experience as a vocalist in high school and has a bright and cheerful personality. But he says that because his expression grows serious whenever he thinks deeply about something, people sometimes misread him as angry.

Chun Myunghoon, with his excellent dancing and rough-voiced rap, is a recognized dancer to the point where he's received offers to become a full-time singer since his Solid backdancer days. He's responsible for the choreography of their title track "Papillon," including the so-called "dog dance" and the "beggar dance," which playfully combines the motions of asking for food and hitting the back of one's hand. The group's dances strive for uniqueness, so that anyone can tell at a glance that it's Hamo Hamo's choreography.

Lee and Chun, who've both acted in dramas, say that they prefer being the main attraction as singers over being extras. In their debut album, which many hitmakers such as Yoon Ilsang, Joo Younghoon, and Yoo Jeongyeon have contributed to, contains a varied repertoire that's been diligently prepared over the course of a year. Aside from "Papillon," the title track, the Hamo Hamo members strongly recommend "Pang Pang," whose production American arranger Mark Davis helped with; they say they were ecstatic when they first received the song. "Silver Line," which depicts a happening at a ski resort, and "No, Already," a club remake of the Kim Changwan song which adds a quirky rap, are also acclaimed among club DJs and candidates for the follow-up track.

Hamo Hamo's debut album is mainly composed of dance music, but Lee and Chun have future plans to equip themselves with maturity and diversity, and try genres such as black music and R&B. With their clean, striking, primary-color-oriented stage outfits, the dance duo Hamo Hamo are taking time out of their busy schedule to dream up their bright, primary colored dreams for '97.

Re: Knight Flower

I'm enjoying Yoon Sa Bong as Jang So Woon, the ally of our FL. The episode shows her being savvy instead of just telling us (like the shots of her account ledger, covering during the meeting of the peonies, etc).

And Park Se Hyun as Yeon Seon is interesting as well. Yeon Seon is obviously a servant in Yeo Hwa's house, but she's also a confidante, literate to the point of transcribing (must have good handwriting), running errands at a bookstore, painting at a level to impress nobility, acting as an information gatherer, and being supportive of Yeo Hwa's lifestyle which could most certainly lead to death.

I'm glad we have a balance of female characters playing opposite the in-laws. But as a Kim Mi Kyung fan, I'm hoping for a redemption arc for her.
