Character Name
Sang-ho
Sang-ho Sang-ho (相浩, mutually vast) names a character whose greatness is fundamentally relational — someone who is most fully themselves in connection with others, whose generosity and mutual regard are their defining characteristics. The prime-minister reading of 相 suits a character who is a natural organizer of consensus, someone who brings parties together and finds the workable middle ground. Sang-ho belongs to the same generation as Byung-ho and Young-ho: solid, mid-century Korean men whose strength was expressed through consistency and loyalty.
