서준 has led the boys' charts in Korea for most of the 2010s and 2020s. The pairing 瑞俊 — an auspicious omen and a talented young man — reads like a wish for a bright, capable son, and the soft 's' opening keeps it gentle. Actor Park Seo-joon (박서준) made the name familiar far outside Korea.
Revised Romanisation: seojun (seo-jun). The spelling most Koreans with this name use abroad: Seo-Jun. Korean syllables have equal length — say each one evenly, no stress.
