		Also, when people with only given names (lower class, and domestic slaves) were allowed to use (or to buy) family names, they preferred to use one out of existing names instead of creating new and thereby recognizable names for their own benefit.
		Lee is spelled alternatively as Rhee, Yi, or even as Li; Lim as Rim, Yim, Rheem; Choi as Choe or Chweh (which is the one I am thinking about using); Yoo as You, Yu, Ryu, or Ryoo.

		North Koreans who were opposed to the full abandonment of Chinese characters (because of the resulting confusion in the vocabulary system) were dealt with by being publicly denounced as "the remains of the overthrown exploiting class, sectarian factors deeply influenced by flunkeyism, doctrinism, and reactionism"(93).
