How to tell which Korean names are male/female?
How can one tell whether a Korean name is male or female? For instance, in English many female names end with "a", "el", "elle" etc.

Question

Answer

In Korean many female names end with '숙', '경', '지', '희', '아', '영', '주', '미', '은', '혜', '현', '미', '선', '연' etc. Many male names end with '호', '준', '석', '일', '훈', '기', '성', '우', '혁', '섭' etc. 

Korean names are mostly made by combining one letter with one letter. So it could be the male one even if it ends with '영'. For example, 도영, 준영, 석영, 남영. And there are some Korean people who had been given the name of the opposite sex.
