<p>Brother Anthony had the right nose, after all. Yes, "Han
Sang-uk" is identical to Han Ch'ang-su's son Han Sang-ŏk, the
founder of the department store (동양백화주식회사). <br />

Quote from an article that deals with pro-Japanese Koreans during the
colonial period:<br />

"작위는 1898년생인 韓相億이 다시 습작했는데, 취리히대학 경제과 출신이다."<br />
