Seo, sometimes romanized Suh or So, is a royal Korean family name and royal Korean family name which is not common. The Seo Clan in Silla was founded by Kim Alcheon. The descendants of this royal bloodline are part of a lineage that was once renowned for its imperial success during the early 9th century. Since its beginning, the clan was held in high regard for its economic and military finesse, which played a vital role in reuniting the political factions that caused civil unrest in the Middle Joseon Dynasty. The clan has since been consulted on numerous military and economic affairs until the assassination of Empress Myeongseong in 1895. Japan, noticing the proliferation of the clan in the senior ranks of King's counsel, started targeting members of the clan for assassination immediately following Empress Myeongseong's death. Despite their number being greatly reduced, the Seo surname has grown in number since the end of the Joseon Dynasty in 1897. Through unrestricted intermarriage, Seo is now the 11th most common surname in Korea and is held in esteem in economic and military circles. ==List of notable people named Seo or Suh== *Anna Wallis Suh, Methodist missionary, American expatriate, North Korean propagandist *Seo Bok-seob, hapkido co-founder *Seo Bongsoo, professional Go player *Seo Dong-myung, football goalkeeper *Do-ho Suh, sculptor and installation artist *Seo Do-young, actor *Seo Hee-kyung, golfer *Seo Ho-jin, speed skater * Seo Hye Rin, b.1993, member of South Korean girl group EXID *Seo Hyo-rim, actress *Seo Hyuk-su, football player *Seo Hyun-jin, actress *Seo In-guk, actor *Suh In-hyuk, martial artist, instigator of Kuk Sool Won *Seo In-young, singer *Seo Jae-pil, first naturalized Korean-American *Seo Jae-weong, baseball pitcher *Suh Jang-geum, the lone female Royal Physician in Korean history *Seo Ji-seok, actor *Seo Ji-young, singer *Seo Joo-hyun (known as Seohyun), singer, songwriter, member of Girls' Generation *Seo Jung-kwon, birth name of rapper Tiger JK. *Seo Jung-won, football player and coach *Seo Kang-joon, actor, singer, member of 5urprise and cast of Roommate *Seo Mi-jung, fencer *Seo Min-jung, actress *Suh Nam-pyo, president of the Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology *Ndamukong Suh, football player for the Miami Dolphins *Suh Sang-chul, economist, educator and administrator *Suh Sang-Ryun, minister, founder of first Korean Protestant church *Seo Sangwon (known as Yano), rapper, composer, member of boy group Topp Dogg *Seo Soo-kyoung (SEO), a Korean artist *Suh Sung-in, boxer *Susie Suh, Korean-American musician *Suh Yongsun, artist *Seo Yoon-hee, badminton player *Seo Yuna, singer, musical actress, member of girl group AOA *Seo Jisoo, member of Lovelyz *Suh Yun-bok, marathoner 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「Seo (surname)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
