Introduction.
There are less than 300 surnames in Korea, including Kim, Lee, Park, Ahn, Zhang, Zhao, Cui, Chen, Han, Jiang, Liu, and Yin. The common surnames are: Kim, Lee, and Park , An, Zhang, Zhao, Cui, Chen, Han, Jiang, Liu, and Yin. South Korea's four major surnames, Kim, Lee, Park and Choi, account for about half of the country's population.
The common Korean surnames Kim, Lee, Park, An, Zhang, Zhao, Cui, Chen, Han, Jiang, Liu and Yin almost never appeared in the history of Goguryeo. Moreover, in addition to Jin and Park, which are considered native Korean surnames, surnames such as Li, Zhang, Zhao, Cui, Chen, and Liu were all common and noble surnames in China from the late Northern and Southern Dynasties to the Sui and Tang Dynasties.
Korean people originally did not have surnames. In ancient times, Baekje and Silla, the ancestors of the Korean nation, began to use surnames in the 4th and 6th centuries respectively. Due to the influence of Chinese culture, Korean surnames are very similar to Chinese surnames, but most of them have nothing to do with Chinese blood and are just borrowed.
Korean surnames usually consist of 3 syllables, which are composed of 3 Chinese characters pronounced in Korean proverbs. The surname comes first, and one character in the first name usually represents seniority.
