(Cont.) Episode 63: Kim Family Matters (Names)

This week Jun and Daniel dive into the world of Korean names and family genealogy. Listen as our hosts explore the cultural significance, history, and trends around names in Korea compared to America. What are the most common Korean last names and how did they originate? How do Koreans choose names for their children and what do the characters mean? What are some generational trends in Korean names? How do nicknames differ between Korea and the US? What is a jokbo (족보) and why is it romanticized by Korean Americans? How do Koreans view changing their names? From clan names to middle names to naming pets, our hosts cover a wide range of naming customs and traditions.  If you're interested in any of these questions, tune in to hear Daniel and Jun discuss all this and more! Also in this episode, Daniel reveals his Kim clan connection to North Korea's leaders, Jun explains a Gyeongsang-do nickname tradition, and both hosts attempt to figure out if they are somehow related.<a href="https://thelatinminute.buzzsprout.com" target="_blank">The Latin Minute</a> The Latin Minute is your new favorite bilingual comedy podcast.
