Which isn't all that surprising — after all, the winning entry in Incheon International Airport Corporation's contest to name the airport's maglev train was 'Incheon Airport Maglev Train,' and the contest to rename Yongsan Park picked the existing name 'Yongsan Park,' on the grounds that it had already been in use for over a decade, was familiar and easy to say, and instantly brought the place to mind. So, well, there you go.
