In Korean, sculptures of this type are called “banga sayu sang,” with “banga” referring to the distinctive positioning of the figure’s legs (with one leg raised to rest horizontally across the other vertical leg), “sayu” indicating contemplation or pensiveness, and “sang” meaning a statue or image.
