Hi there! I've recently been watching a Korean TV program called Produce X 101 and in this show there is a trainee called 백진 (Baek Jin).
And a question popped up in my mind, is 백 his family name and 진 given name? Is it common for a Korean person to have a given name that is only one letter?
I thought he might have family name like Kim Bake Jin or something and he chose to go with his given name only, but then I saw his graduation photos with his name. So i assume this is his full birth name (or at least not a stage name)...
I'm not familiar with Korean naming system so any information would be helpful!
감사합니다
