...Cause that's what he introduced himself as and he hasn't told me/won't tell me (granted I haven't asked) his Korean name. x.x'
A lot of Koreans will take an English name because typically Americans have a hard time saying Korean names.
Like Hoya's English name is Jacob (or Jake)
Kwon-ah's English name is Jack
Jeehyun's English name is Becky (which I actually call her by)
I don't think Leetae chose one, though. But his is easy to say.
Sooo yeah. A lot of the time they'll choose an English name. (Or shorten their Korean name, or both)
Mmm, Like Hoya's name is actually Sang Ho, and Kwon-ah's name is actually Kwon Yong
yeah >_> A lil complicated. And it definitely causes confusion between friends when you only know someone by one name.

Not to mention, we just tend to butcher their names. Like the common Korean last names we all /think/ are easy (Lee, Park, Kim) we are saying terribly wrong. It's more like Ee Bahg, and Geem. Although the G sound is more somewhere between a G and a K >_> So I understand Kim being said wrong. But Ya. (and just for my fun, here's them in Korean spelling 이, 박, 김 )
Yay XD I'm practicing my Korean spelling/reading (and failing but I can read it okay enough usually, but I haven't a goddamn clue what's being said)

Mini korean lessons? XD Sorry, I go on rants lately >_>
Anyway, haha, yeah. ^^' I dunno, I just don't let people on my facebook often. Hell, even people from real life I won't always add. I think I have like, forty friends on it is all. ._.
