Best Answer

No. Most Koreans keep their names consistent throughout their lives. However, when dealing with Westerners, Koreans tend to use Western names since they realize that it is easier for Westerners to remember. For example, Donghun Lee (이동훈) might choose to use the English name "Donald" instead of "Donghun" when dealing with Westerners since it sounds similar and Westerners remember it more easily.

Is there a Korean eBay site?

Yes, there is. You can find the direct link to the Korean site by going to any eBay homepage and scrolling to the bottom of it - all existing eBay sites are listed there. Just click on the country name and you will be transferred to the corresponding site. Korean eBay website is www.auction.co.kr in Korea. eBay acquired Auction.co.kr in 2001 and adopted its name, instead of changing to eBay.co.kr and www.gmarket.co.kr is another big auction website in Korea. They are like the rivals. www.gmarket.co.kr has English shop but www.auction.co.kr looks like they only support Korean in language. If you are Korean or can read Korean, there is website called "eBay Korean Community" www.ebaykorean.com This website answers all the questions with eBay, but site is in Korean.
