My Name...林炫遇, Lim HyunWoo, 임현우
My name is really hard to pronounce for foreigners. Not because it's Korean, it is harder than most of other Korean names. When Korean parents name their child, they usually usr Chinese character to have meaningful name. My name, 'Lim HyunWoo' also has meaning in each word. My family name, 'Lim' 林 means Forest, 'Hyun' 炫 means Bright and Active and because of 'Hyun' I think that's why I'm so energetic all the time... Lastly, 'Woo' 遇 means Meet (like you 'meet' your friend).
I'm not sure about my family name's back ground story but I think it is really important and interesting... If my first name is combined, which is 'HyunWoo' it means that you will make a lot of friends because you are bright or will make friends very fast. My parent chose 'Lim HyunWoo' becasue before I was born, there was this singer who was really famous and had same name, 'Kim HyunWoo' and my dad and mom really liked him so they named me the same name. 5 years after I was born, there was this new magician name, 'Lee HyunWoo' who became really popular and famous magician in Korea. When I entered Elementary school, my friends liked me because they liked magician 'Lee HyunWoo' and asking me if I can do magic. At that time, I got interested in magic so I attended magic school for 2 years. There was also some issues with my name.... when I came here, Malaysia, my name was hard to pronounce and eventhough when people or my friends got use to my name, they call me 'Hyu Noo' on purpose, and even today my friends sometimes call me 'Hyun Noob'... Anyways... I LOVE MY NAME!!!
