Seok, also spelled Suk, is an uncommon Korean family name held by about 56,500 South Koreans, as well as an element in some Korean given names. ==As a family name== The family name Seok can be written with either of two hanja, one meaning "stone" (), and the other meaning "ancient" (). The former is the most widespread of the two. The 2000 South Korean census found 46,066 people by this name.〔http://kosis.nso.go.kr/cgi-bin/sws_999.cgi?ID=DT_1INOOSB&IDTYPE=3〕 Of these, the great majority are members of the Chungju (also called Hongju) Seok clan. The latter had a 2000 South Korean population of 9,544. The great majority of the holders of that name are members of the Gyeongju Seok clan, which claims descent from certain of the early rulers of Silla. The first Gyeongju Seok to sit on the throne was the fourth Silla king, Talhae. In a study by the National Institute of the Korean Language based on 2007 application data for South Korean passports, it was found that 61.3% of people with that surname spelled it in Latin letters as Seok in their passports, vs. 30.6% as Suk. Rarer alternative spellings (the remaining 8.1%) included Seog, Sok, Souk, and Sock. People with this family name include: *Seok Joo-myung (1908–1950), Korean entymologist of the Japanese colonial period *Seok Cheoljoo (born 1950), South Korean painter *Suk Jong-yul (born 1968), South Korean professional golfer *Suk Min-hee (born 1968), South Korean Olympic team handball player *Jeannie Suk (born 1973), Korean American law professor *Seok Eun-mi (born 1976), South Korean Olympic table tennis player *Suk Jin-wook (born 1976), South Korean volleyball player *Suk Hyun-jun (born 1991), South Korean footballer 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Seok (Korean name)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
