This looks like a BLP with no sources (the reference is dead, the purported official site in Japanese is dead). Given that this is a stage name and there are no sources, what are our grounds for talking about the composition of the "2-word surname"? And is this person notable?

Weak oppose - That could make the naming more confusing to average readers who know nothing about name ordering of Korean people. What about names, like Park Geun-hye? Also, per WP:NC-KO, "If there is no personal preference, and no established English spelling, hyphenate the syllables, with only the first syllable capitalized." --George Ho (talk) 07:03, 8 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
The official website uses "Seomoon Tak", but independent sources use Seo Moon Tak. I don't have preference on which style because I'm not familiar with her or the way Koreans are named in English. I know that Korean surname goes first before two more characters. --George Ho (talk) 07:10, 8 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
IIRC, Hanja authorized to use on name (by Supreme Court of S. Korea) states Seomoon is also a surname. I'd support Seomoon Tak. (George Ho: Korean surnames generally has one caracters, but as always, there is exception, such as Jegal, Seomoon and so on.) —Revi15:32, 8 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
