(4)If you cancel, put Korea in it. 14
(5)▲ I’m not sure if I’m going to do that. ⓒ I’m not going to do that
(6)On September 16, 1955, President Syngman Rhee proposed to find a name to replace Seoul because it was difficult for foreigners to pronounce Seoul When the presidential statement was announced, the Seoul Metropolitan Government launched a project to find a new name for the capital
(7)The Seoul Metropolitan Government’s National Name Research Committee conducted a public opinion survey on four names, including Unam, Hanyang, Hankyung, and Hanseong The results of the poll show that Unam topped the list, and Unam may have been pushed forward with the fact that the U.S. capital, Washington, DC, where he went to study, was named after the first president
(8)Syngman Rhee’s aides wanted to change the name of Seoul to Unam City, whether it was for idolization or flattery. Fortunately, as the opposition Democratic Party won the Seoul Metropolitan Council election the following year, the plan for Unam City came to nothing. As pop culture critic Lee Young-mi pointed out, idolization as much as idolization of North Korea’s Kim Il-sung was unfolded on the land of men and women The competition for idolization between the South and the North has also attracted derision that there are two suns on the Korean Peninsula

Is Seoul hard to pronounce

Is it hard for him

The Seoul Metropolitan Government also wanted to change to the name

Everyone, it’s safe in Woonam City [Laughing]
