| | The use of personal names |
 | | Korean given names are usually composed of two characters or syllables using Hanja. |
| | A few people have one- or three-character given names, like the politician Kim Ku and Sin Saimdang, the mother of the philosopher Yi I. People with two-character family names often have a one-character given name, like the singer Seomoon Tak. |
| | In 1991, the South Korean Supreme Court published the Table of Hanja for Personal Name Use that restricts the possible Hanja in new Korean given names. |
