Who screens the names? Don't they have at least ONE Kyopo in their family, er, I mean NATIVE ENGLISH SPEAKER on their staff who could point out the obvious problem with the name? Laughing

Of course, I mean "on staff" because Korean corporations would NEVER hire people simply because they're related to a boss. Rolling Eyes

We need a nickname? I think the real name does just fine.
