So I was in my 30s when I first learned Hahlmuhnee’s name. I was holding her hand at the hospice facility she’d been transferred to. “Chung, Yong Neyo” was typed onto the plastic band dangling from her wrist. I thought to myself, what’s that? It was so alien to me, I didn’t even recognize it as a name at all, much less hers. 2/

幾秒內	Joanne Molinaro, The Korean Vegan thekoreanvegan	I would see it again chiseled into the tombstone when we buried her, in both Korean and English. 정용녀 or Chung Young Neyo, with the surname coming first, as is the convention in Korean. And for years after that, at every memorial service that took place on the soft grass covering her bones, my tongue would trip over those three syllables, jung yong nyeuh. 3/
