Thank you very much. I don’t know why but Korean is one of those languages that I have a very hard time seeing any difference between male and female names. It is probably just my own ignorance. Though most other languages like Hebrew, I don’t have the problem with. Is there any best way for a non Korean to see these first names and whether it is a boy or girl, a man or a woman who is being spoken about or listed.

I get the use of ”hyung’ and ‘shi’, but what does ‘gun’ at the end of a man’s name mean. Is it a nickname or term of endearment of some sort?
