Yujin

Yujin is a given name used in East Asia. In Korea it is commonly written in Hangul as 유진 and is used for both males and females. The meaning of the name depends on the hanja characters chosen to represent the syllables yu and jin; as many hanja correspondences exist, there is a wide range of possible meanings.

In other East Asian contexts, Yujin can appear as a romanization of similar syllables in Chinese or Japanese names, and may be rendered differently depending on the language and romanization system. In Chinese contexts, Yujin may be a transliteration of several different given-name components and may be written with various characters.

The name has gained visibility in popular culture in South Korea and elsewhere through its use by entertainers, athletes, and public figures. Because of its simple two-syllable structure, Yujin is frequently used in both formal and informal settings.

Related names include variants such as Yu-jin, Yoojin in Korean spellings, and similar-sounding names in other languages.
