I guess I should feel pretty good, but I thought I was being cute with the title - now I find out someone else is using the title - who was first?

Reuters now has this in their "oddly enough" column: http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&ncid=757&e=1&u=/nm/20041207/od_nm/odd_korea_condom_dc

Isn’t this name clash a funny example of the pervasive (marketed) use of konglish all around in Korea (and other countries as well)?

I don’t speak Korean, but it seems that the correct translation of “aepil” is “[sex] appeal”, right?

You are all forgeting the funniest part of this all. There are 10 people in Korea actualy named “The Necessity for Having Sex”! This is almost a Dave Barry type of article!

Brendon> The “McDonalds” issue came up agian because of a rulling in Singapore yesterday. Add that to you more darker examples.

Isn’t “needed for love” a better translation than “the necessity in having sex”?

I guess it depends on how valid your complaint is. Does anybody remember how fiercely the owners of various “Hitler”- and “Auschwitz”-themed restaurants have historically resisted complaints from whiny Jews and other foreigners?

Right, it was the anti-AIDS org that responded that way, not companies.

About the 10 people though… it would be one thing to a car or something with something that could also be a personal name, but having your name eventually come to be used to mean “condom” would really make some people angry.

And the thing is, ?????? really does feel like it could be a ?´Œ??¤?????´ personal name, right? I mean if you called it ‘?????‘??? ?’????’ or something you wouldn’t have that problem.
