Family name

As a Korean family name, Young can be written with three different hanja, indicating different lineages. According to the 2000 South Korean Census, a total of 259 people had these family names.[1]

  • (길 영 gil yeong 'eternal'): 132 people and 40 households. Reported bon-gwan (clan hometowns) included Gangnyeong, Gyeongju, and Pyeonghae.[1] Although the family name was found in numerous historical records, it was recorded under the census for the first time in a 1930 survey by Japanese colonial government with one family living in Seoul.[2] More families bearing the surname has been found since then in the contemporary census surveys.
  • (영화 영 yeonghwa yeong 'flourishing'): 86 people and 20 households. There was one reported bon-gwan, Yeongcheon, and two people whose bon-gwan was not recorded.[1] This character is also used to write a Chinese family name now pronounced Róng in Mandarin.
  • (그림자 영 geurimja yeong 'shadow' or 'reflection'): 41 people and 15 households. There was one reported bon-gwan, Seoncheon, and one person whose bon-gwan was not recorded.[1] Seoncheon is located in an area that became North Korean territory after the division of Korea; one person with this family name who had come from North Korea and was living in Seoul stated that there had previously been many more people with that family name living near Seoncheon.[3]
