Talk:Kim (Korean surname)

message: Surely a Wikipedia article is not the place to list everyone who shares a common name?  I have just cleared up Kim, the disambig page, which was even worse.  I suggest removing the list, and tellign readers to search for the full name of the person they want. BrainyBabe 13:17, 6 February 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: List of everyone

message: I'm pretty sure the number for the Gimhae Kims (listed at 26,300) is wrong. But before I actually edit the page itself, I wanted some recognition/confirmation of this. Also, a noted member of the Gimhae Kims includes, from what I am told, the first Roman Catholic saint from Korea, St. Andrew Dae-gun Kim. Again, I think we need confirmation, and probably, from what I can tell, a little cleaning up.Ecthelion83 (talk) 04:08, 13 July 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Gimhae, Gyeongju, and Andong

message: Yeah, I think Andong and Gimhae have been mixed up. That paragraph about Andong definitely describes the Gimhae clan.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 87.188.90.211 (talk) 21:19, 31 July 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Re: Gimhae, Gyeongju, and Andong

message: The first paragraph seems to be saying that the hanja "金," normally pronounced geum, is instead pronounced gim when it is used as a surname or when it appears in place names. It then purports to go on to give examples of place names that include that character, and lists "慶州" among them, which is apparently pronounced gyeongju. "Gyeongju" does not seem to contain kim or geum, nor does "慶州" seem to contain "金." Am I missing something? — Modus Ponens (talk) 16:40, 11 July 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: An anon editor added Gyeongju to the list. Perhaps he was confused about the meaning of the sentence in the introductory paragraph, which is about the pronunciation of 金 as "gim" in place names. It is not about places where Kim clans originated, which include Gyeongju and Gimhae as stated later in the article. I've remove Gyeongju from the sentence--Joshua Say "hi" to me!What I've done? 16:30, 26 August 2012 (UTC)
thread_title:  The Word ''Gyeongju'' Contains ''Kim''...? 

message: Admittedly English isn't my first language, but I think that "Two clans have been set as the main Andong exist." isn't proper English. At least there must be an easier to understand way to express the thought behind it. 87.156.193.204 (talk) 13:30, 30 June 2013 (UTC)

message: In the , please remove:
: | pronunciation = Kim, Gim (.f gimantane)
(which is unclear whether the pronunciation is supposed to be "Kim" as in "Kimberly" or "Gym" as in "Gymnasium", and the Internet has never heard of the word "gimantane") and replace with:
:| pronunciation = 
A source for the IPA pronunciation:  Of course not everyone can read IPA in general, but these particular IPA symbols are pretty intuitive, and the template generates a link to Help:IPA/Korean for anyone who's still confused. Thanks 59.149.124.29 (talk) 02:24, 17 September 2018 (UTC)

message: Hello, I am Joseph Seo. I see Korean surnames in English Wikipedia for interests. But, some documents of korean surname is weird for me. honestly confusing. the reason why I confuse is the Chinese surname is in korean surname documents. We, Koreans used the hanja before the 15th century, chinese character for korean surname to write. But Today, Koreans do not use hanja to write in most cases. Koreans use hangul. But I feel confusing in 'see also'. Because I never thought Kim and Park are equivalent to chinese surnames, 'Jin' and "Pu'. 
Well, the meaning is equal. But the pronunciation sound is clearly different. it means Word is different too in korean from chinese. So Chinese surnames and Korean surnames are not equivalent for me as I think 'equivalent'. and the documents of korean surnames feel different for me. Feels like some korean surnames include Chinese surnames. so I d like to standardize the documents of korean surnames in my way(Anyway, it it personal request). The way is All of korean surnames are not equivalent in chinese surnames. like
Yun-That is correct document for me. 'The Korean surname Yun or Youn has no relations with the Doãn surname of Vietnam or Yin of China.' Most of Korean surnames have no relation in chinese surnames. We have own surname, not equivalent chinese surname.
Choi-I prefer it too. Just add the chinese surname with same chinese character in the document.
Id like to edit some sentences in some documents of Korean surname. 
Seo-This include a personal thing to me. Seo is absolutely not related to chinese surname. it is unfair to write 'related' to use the same chinese character. and the pronunciation is different too. I d like to delete the sentence 'For the related Chinese surname, see Xú.'
Kim- In 'See Also', Jin, the equivalent Chinese surname. Can you delete 'equivalent' in this sentence? 
Park- In 'See Also', Pu, the equivalent Chinese surname. Can you delete 'equivalent' in this sentence?
 We used Chinese characters to write korean pronunciation before. and the pronunciation is different from the Chinese mandarin language. We have own writing system, 'hangul'. and the word is different from the Chinese language. So I request to delete 'equivalent' or 'related' chinese surname in see also or the upper sentence in the documents of korean surnames.
:They're related to the Chinese surnames. Even if they weren't, you still use the Chinese character 金 and it means "gold" just like in Chinese. You seem to have a general problem that Chinese characters are used at all. Hanja is an integral part of the Korean languages, and many words are of Chinese origin. --82.207.237.142 (talk) 18:35, 29 July 2021 (UTC)
