@Dizzyzebra uh, I am speaking in terms of what it sounds like. The combination of 시 and 유 is pretty unnatural as a korean name. and it doesnt sound like "See you" either, ㅅ is more like /sh/ than /s/ but /sh/ still differs greatly from proper ㅅ sound.

I think that the claim that her name is from the phrase "I see you" is pretty much a bluff. I think the main consideration for making her name was making a korean name that is easy enough for non-koreans to pronounce.

Still many people fail to pronounce her name correctly though. People who do not know Korean usually say shi-yu but it sounds bad. it sounds like 쉬유 or whatever.
