Both names are wrong. It is Guk Nae Sung. Orthodoxy 14:13, 19 March 2007 (UTC)

Jiejunkong, stop your POV attempts - we already had RFC on why Goguryeo is not Chinese. (Wikimachine 20:25, 6 September 2007 (UTC))

Why did you call my name in the front of Orthodoxy (a Korean native speaker I believe) ? This kind of unnecessary name reference is rude and shows that you have trouble in mind. And where does this RFC on "Goguryeo is Chinese" stuff come from? Who told you that you can put a modern label on a controversial historical entity? --Jiejunkong 06:56, 11 September 2007 (UTC)
I believe there was no RfC which covered Guknae Seong/Guonei City. Which RfC are you talking about? I know that the RfM for Goguryeo never went as far as discussing city names north of the Yalu River.--Endroit 20:58, 6 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Guknae Seong? Shouldn't it be "Gungnae-seong" or "Gungnaeseong"?

According to South Korea's revised romanization rule, it must be one of Gungnae Seong, Gungnae-seong, or Gungnaeseong. (I know, I hate how it looks, but a rule is a rule...) As for me, I prefer it in all one single word. See, for example, Wiryeseong.

Well, if anybody wants to pursue a pinyin name, I don't want to make a fight... (I don't like it, and I think it's strange to use pinyin name for a country which Chinese people considered alien for millenia, but I hate naming wars even more.) But if we are to use a Korean name, at least let's get it right. Yongjik 04:24, 12 September 2007 (UTC)

FYI, Han Chinese considered Jurchens and Tanguts as aliens for millenia. But right now in nearly all Chinese and English textbooks, Song Dynasty, Jurchen Jin Dynasty and Western Xia Dynasty are considered as a trio of Chinese Dynasties around 12th and 13th centuries. --Jiejunkong 19:07, 13 September 2007 (UTC)
The reason why I mentioned this is due to the relation between Mohe and Goguryeo (assuming the relation between Mohe and Jurchen is well-known).--Jiejunkong 19:11, 13 September 2007 (UTC)

As nobody opposed, I moved the article from "Guknae Seong" to "Gungnae-seong". Yongjik 08:08, 20 September 2007 (UTC)
