In the hangul script, first attested in the Seokbo sangjeol (釋譜詳節 / 석보상절), 1447, as Middle Korean 스스ᇰ (Yale: sùsùng).
Beyond the Hangul sources, apparently from a first-century Korean royal title which was transcribed in Middle Chinese as 次次雄 (MC tshijH tshijH hjuwng), which is explicitly said to have meant "shaman" in Old Korean.
Syllables in red take high pitch. This word always takes high pitch only on the second syllable, except before consonant-initial multisyllabic suffixes, when it takes full low pitch.
