Our Studies In Korea Will Be Wonderful ~ Yang Pei Yi (part one)

   When we go back to China , we are planning to stop for a few weeks in Korea, for our study benefits. Then we will head to Peking. Today we picked our Korean names. First we got our our character compass; a compass with which the directions are replaced with the Chinese characters. Shūshu made it for us in his clockwork store in China. It has been in my possession for a long time.  This is how our families originally chose their names when they went to foreign countries. First, the family gets to choose which way you hold it, and the number of times you turn, either left or right. The character the needle points to determines what letter your new name will start with. But you get to choose your own name.

My name Pei Yi means:
 Pei ~
It is pronounced PEY †.  The meaning of Pei is 'teach'.

Yi ~
Yi is pronounced as YIY †. Yi is of the meaning gift, appearance; rite.


My surname Yang means:

Yang ~

Yang is pronounced Yáng. The meaning of Yang is 'sun'.

The needle landed on S. I chose Sun-hee

Sun-hee means 'the girl of brightness'. Like the sun.

Kim~



The same as Lin's.


Kim Sun-hee
