Naming conventions

People are always alphabetized by their family name, regardless of whether the person concerned puts his/her family name first or last. If it is unclear which is the family name and which the given name (for example, Nam June Paik, since Nam and Paik are both family names and there's no telltale hyphen in the name) please check under both names.

Monarchs are listed in the following format:

Title Name of Kingdom
For example: Queen Seondeok of Silla; King Sejong the Great of Joseon; Emperor Gojong of Korea.

For more on this subject, please see Wikipedia:Naming conventions (Korean).

Note on romanization

North Korean place names use McCune-Reischauer Romanization (except that ŏ and ŭ are not used in article titles, although they are shown on this page), while South Korean place names use the Revised Romanization of Korean. Personal and corporate names (Syngman Rhee; Samsung) are generally romanized according to the nameholder's preference, or to the spelling most frequently encountered in English. If there is no dominant English spelling, Revised Romanization is to be preferred, but see also Wikipedia:Naming conventions (Korean).
