Jae-in is a Korean unisex given name. Its meaning differs based on the hanja used to write each syllable of the name. There are 20 hanja with the reading " jae" and 29 hanja with the reading " in" on the South Korean government's official list of hanja which may be registered for use in given names. [1] According to statistics of the Supreme Court, among 852,614 South Koreans who changed their names between October 2012 and October 2017, Jae-in was the 336th-most popular new name, chosen by 531 people over that period. It did not experience any boost in popularity following the election of Moon Jae-in as president of South Korea, though it was still the most popular new name among the given names of the past five presidents. [2]

People with this name include:

  • Moon Jae-in (born 1953), 19th President of South Korea
  • Tak Jae-in ( fl. 1974–present), South Korean male voice actor
  • Jang Jae-in (born 1992), South Korean female singer-songwriter
