I like this, even though Lecaf was sweet and all, I like how this is going in the name of progaming even inside of korea.

Oz is still Oz, so I'm cool

Hwa-Se-ung
Hwa is pronounced as that of (Hwa)sin
Se is pronouned as that of (Se)oul
Ung is pronounced as that of Sam(Sung)
it should be something like Who-Ar-Song
i think?

Most English guides I've read use the vowel sound in "brook" for the Korean vowel "ㅡ" (eu) in "승".

So, similar to the double-o in words like "look" or "book," but the "r" before it brings it closer to a mix with an "ee" sound by placing it farther back on the tongue. I've also seen it described as just this: a mix between a normal English "oo" and "ee" sound. Can anyone think of a better English word for it?

Some hints about the SEUNG pronounciation:

UpMagiC's name is Shin Hee Seung, MuMyung's name is Sung Hak Seung.

If you don't get it.. just listen carefully when the fan girls shout "HWASEUNG HWAITING" in the next PL match.
