Meaning & History
From native Korean 사랑 (sarang) meaning "love, affection." Several derivations of this word are possible, such as a shift from Sino-Korean 思量 (saryang) meaning "consideration," a derivation of either the verb 사르다 (sareuda) meaning "to make a fire" or 살 (sal) meaning "flesh."
It can also be written with hanja, combining a sa hanja, like 莎 meaning "sedge, nut grass," 仕 meaning "work, labour" or 思 meaning "thought, feeling," with a rang hanja, such as 朗/朖 meaning "bright; brilliant."Bearers of this name include actress Kim Sa-rang (1978-), rock singer-songwriter Kim Sa-rang (1981-) and actress Park Sa-rang (2003-).
