Usually i just think s-n-s-d in my head instead of sonyeoshidae or sau-nee-shi-dai.

For me, its to do with the stan-dom name. Seeing it in writing while reasearching or b4 knowing how to say it in korean-i will forever think so-neh in my head, instead of so-won (they shd hv spelled it so-one in english). Tat is forever ingrained in my head since 2018 when i started to stan snsd n started learning more abt them. But my username here i think of tat part as 1-syllable Sawwwwn.



Imo, there is no pt asking this abt kpop names/reasons when it comes to english group/stage names. Just go with it. (Koreans just use hangul anyway, english is like just clickbait for outside korea.)

Also, i hv/had argument(s) very, very short ones, with my teenage niece (who is a bigger kpop fan than me), abt Shinee. I asked her why its not pronounced Shin-ee n she basically threw her hands up n said "i give up". Also when i asked her abt Seventeen having 13 members. Another time when i asked her abt NCT n their multiple sub-units. Shes v frustrated tat im interested in kpop but I DONT GET IT! (to her).

lol I always do shine- e likely because i think i first saw em on Star golden bell where they were introduced that way.

21 i always say / think ect 21

lol and i was a so own for awhile ...... so close so won .... i blame the dyslexia .
At least pink panda was easy :)

Ek-sid instead of E-X-I-D


Not me but a friend would pronounce Sehun's name as say-huh-n even thought she knew how to say his real name and could say his name but kept insisting she couldn't her reasoning was that that's how she would read it in English and we pronounce names differently to how they're pronounced in their native country all the time using our Swedish friend Ida's name as an example but like THAT DOESN'T COUNT WHEN U LITERALLY CHANGE THE SPELLING OF THE NAME IN IT'S NATIVE LANGUAGE I JUST- okay breathe... she would say 세이헌 instead of 세훈 like it literally made me cry
