This is truly good news!

I shouldn't bring this up, but did anyone else notice that one of the Millenium Democratic Party members was named "Jong Bum-goo"? Wow, that's an unfortunate name!

Yeah, and it goes both ways, don't you know?

A number of American names sound funny to Asians as well.

For example, to the Japanese, "Baca" (a common last name in New Mexico) means "jackass" and "Gary" means "diarreah". The Arizona town of "Ajo" is "idiot" in Japanese.

There are many, many of these.
