P1Harmony(피원하모니)는 Plus(플러스)와 숫자 1, Harmony(하모니)의 합성어로 ‘팀’과 미지의 ‘하나’가 더해져 다양한 하모니를 만드는 가능성이 무한한 아이들이라는 의미를 담고 있다. 이들은 데뷔 앨범 ‘DISHARMONY : STAND OUT’을 통해 세상을 바라보는 독창적인 시야로 자신들의 메시지를 음악으로 엮어냈다.

The YOOki Chronicles

The YOOki Chronicles is Yohan Yukiya Sese-Cuneta’s return into casual and personal blogging. The name “YOOki” is a mash-up of the acronym of YourOnly.One and my nickname ᜌᜓᜃᜒ (Yuki・雪矢).

Interestingly, according to Chinese legend, 柳 (YOO) is an ancient Chinese surname. The ancestors of the surname were closely linked with the ancient sage-king named Yu Shun. In Korea, the 유 (YU) lineage traces to the Xia, Han, and Joseon dynasties. Holders of the surname Yu or Yoo had a reputation for charity and diligence.1

It is also the word for “willow” or the “willow tree” which means graceful or slender; and a tree growing near a body of water which provide continuous nourishment and resources for everyone. It can also mean to exist, an oil (anointment(?)), and simply as “U” (you).

The Hanzi 紀 (ki) character means to record, be disciplined, provide order. While the Hangeul equivalent, 키 (ki), means energy, spirit, a banner, and a period of time; and is also a suffix used to make a gerund or an infinitive.
