Why are #18 and #19 the same?

Most of the time I see #12 spelled as Oh - can you accept that as an alternate spelling?

Well right not it is set as 0. When someone trys to type in Oh the computer will auto take O.

No, this quiz doesn't accept "O". Did you forget to check the box that says "Accept single character answers"? Anyway, it is always possible to type faster than the Sporcle code can check what you've typed, so if "Oh" is a legitimate alternative spelling of "O" then you should have "Oh" as an alternative.

Shouldn't it be "Top 20 Korean Surnames"?

maybe you could also accept 'Jung' for 'Jeong' (that's how most koreans that I know spell it anyway)

Yeah, sort out Oh. I tried Oh, oh, O, o, Ohh, OH, 오, 0, nothing works. Annoying.

My boyfriend is number 18! Big up all the people called 송/Song out there :) For number 12 - it simply doesn't work. Oh is the most common spelling of it. Also, please accept "Gwon" for "Kwon", "Gang" for "Kang", "Jung" for "Jeong" and "Lim" or "Im" for "Yim". and there are two kinds of Park - 박 and 백, which both rank in the top 20 but Park is infinitely more common than Baek. Maybe separate them?

Also surprised than Nam/남 isn't on there, either - got a lot of students with that as a surname!

I tried using my Korean friends' surnames to help me, the problem is most of them have one of the top four anyway -_-

Got them all except for "O". It won't accept it. I tried Oh, O, Ow, Ohw, Ohh, 0, 오, etc. Also, "O" is more commonly spelled as "Oh". "Jeong" is commonly known as Chung, Jung and Jong. Please accept those as well.
