The true meaning of 'Jung SuWon' is not what you think!

 Jung SuWon allegedly means 'the art of uniting body, mind and spirit in harmony'.

Jung is another word for love or loveliness. It could also be interpreted as whole, as is the whole of two in love.

Suwon is the city of filial piety, (or is called that), under Buddhist ideals, which essentially states, be nice to your parents, and also how difficult that can be for some. This is ironic, according to the many origin sites and students and exers, as TYK often said her parents were bad to her. Suwon is reportedly the city that then Kyung Ae met Art Fontaine on an airbase.

So actually what the students are saying is 'one who loves their parents'. Hmmm. So of TYK considers herself the mother, the term essentially means, be nice to me because I'm your mother. Kind of works actually.

Tae Yun means bringer of universe, so there you go.
