W H O thought it was a good idea to Americanize their names? What is this 4Kids TV bullshit? Are they going to have their favorite 'jelly donuts' for lunch next? I'm surprised Greg didn't say he knew Sebastian and Isaac were 'cousins' all along. Are Western readers so incapable of reading Korean names? How intellectually condescending can you get? How is anyone supposed to learn if it's kept from them? And renaming them feels disrespectful to the creators and their characters. What are their real names?
I hope this romanization will be good enough: Sebastian - Jeong (Jung here) Seowoo Isaac - Han Leegeon Greg - Yugeon (or Yoogeon, I don't know exactly)

Thank you! A weight has lifted from my shoulders.
But where did they get these new names from? They're definitely not phonetically similar. Did they look for names with similar meanings?

I don't know, maybe they thought their names will really be too hard for us XD I think the second option is more possible
