Hanja and meaning

The meaning of the name Su-bin differs based on the hanja used to write each syllable of the name. There are 67 hanja with the reading "su" and 25 hanja with the reading "bin" on the South Korean government's official list of hanja which may be used in given names.[2] Some ways of writing this name in hanja include:

秀彬 (빼어날 수; bbae-eonal su; 빛날 빈; binnal bin): "outstanding and refined"

Historically, Su-bin (綏嬪) was a title for concubines of the first rank during the Joseon dynasty, for example King Jeongjo's concubine Su-bin Bak (1770–1822).[3] Such titles can be distinguished from the given name because they are placed before the surname rather than after it.
