Married Couples have been merged...

There is a new function in town. If there is a celebrity couple, their names are merged to form the name of the couple.

For example:

Brangelina

Or even, take this quote about SNSD's YoonA and the male pairings that she's had in her dramas or in commercials:

"Move over Taec-Yoong, Gi-Yoong or any other Yoong’s pairing. Won-Yoong is now the trend as SJ’s Siwon and SNSD’s Yoona feature for TV & Style "

Comparing previous conventions, whereby we'd have "David and Victoria Beckham" or "Tom and Katie Cruise". Perhaps the function as stated only works if the couple do not take the same last name. If a couple is married, and the female takes the last name of the male, we do not see the merger of names.

The thing for this is that, the generation of new terms are getting increasingly more and more. The function as stated above seems to imply that the male and female names will merge, and thus, a new term comes out. Imagine for the other members of SNSD, whereby in a Korean show "We got married", we have JyungTae to represent Jyung Don and Tae Yeon, so on and so forth. Thus, for the lexicon of SNSD, I think we would generate a whole new list of names that would fade off in the span of a month or two.

Perhaps we should explore the possibility of a temporary lexicon, given these days, there are so many terms that are being created that don't last for a more than a couple of months.
