Hi, despite the faq explanation, I still don't really understand the difference between standardised and not. Standardised by whom? S. Korean government, I suppose...? I'm not actually sure. Aren't they just different romanisation systems like Kunrei-shiki vs Hepburn for Japanese? I mean, Japan preferred the former while everyone else preferred hepburn until they finally capitulated in 2025... I'm not sure if it's just a preference thing.
If you mean standardised by Naver... well, they don't even do Asian name order so for all I know it's Russians saying it's Victor Nikiforov vs the fandom insisting on Viktor Nikiforov all over again lol, and the Japanese insisting on Yuri when hepburn nerds use Yuuri

Also, if you want learn more about romanization of different things
It's not a strict guideline as there are a few correct ways to write Korean names using romanized letters, but there is a guideline nonetheless. Rule of thumb is writing it the closest to how it would be pronounced, but there is wriggle room. We are using the standardized spelling based off the hangul, but also following what the ORV official does. But some will always be a little different, but not incorrect, such as using g instead of k, in some instances, or p instead of b or v.
