Junghui is most commonly a Korean given name built from the Sino-Korean elements Jeong (정) + Hui/Hee (희), with meanings determined by the hanja chosen. Frequent Jeong characters include 正/貞/政/晶 (“upright; chaste; governance; crystal”), paired with Hui/Hee characters such as 喜/熙/希/禧 (“joy; bright; hope; blessing”), producing readings like “upright brightness,” “joyful integrity,” or “steadfast hope.” A less common variant uses 휘 (輝, hwi “radiance”), as in 정휘 (Jeong-hwi), which can also be romanized Junghui. In Mandarin, a related name Junhui (俊辉/君辉/军辉) means “handsome/lordly/valiant + radiance,” though it is typically spelled without g.

In Korea the name is unisex and saw strong mid- to late-20th-century use, especially in the feminine form often written Jung-hee. Variants and romanizations include Jeong-hui, Jung-hee, Jung-hui, Jeong-hwi, and the McCune–Reischauer form Chŏng-hŭi; Chinese forms appear as Junhui.
