Nancy's Korean name is no longer Seungri.

On May 9, Momoland appeared on Mnet's 'TMI News.' MC Jun Hyun Moo asked Nancy, "Can you share some TMI about yourself?" 

To this, Nancy addressed the rumors on her name change, and revealed, "I changed my Korean name to 'Lee Gooru' a year ago. I heard it means tree. So I plan to grow into a big tree."


Prior to the change, Nancy's Korean name was Lee Seungri.

Well i guess the name change was good, I think she did it because she didnt want it to clash with a famous sunbae idol, but not due to recent events, since its over a year ago, but i guess she had to mention it now since her fans are concerned about it.

Anyone with the similar name will likely want to change it too.
