- In Korean, names are not usually used alone in social settings. A person named 저스틴 would likely be called 저스틴 씨 to show polite distance and respect.
- Because 저스틴 is a foreign name, it is written in Hangul, a phonetic alphabet, rather than using Hanja (Chinese characters) used for traditional Korean names.
- In celebrity contexts, such as with Justin Bieber, Korean media often uses the English name but adds a title like 저스틴 비버 군 to indicate his age relative to the speaker.
