==As a family name==
The family name Seok can be written with either of two hanja, one meaning "stone" ({{linktext|石}}), and the other meaning "ancient" ({{linktext|昔}}). The former version is the more widespread of the two. The 2000 South Korean census found 46,066 people by this name.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://kosis.nso.go.kr/cgi-bin/sws_999.cgi?ID=DT_1INOOSB&IDTYPE=3 |title=Archived행정구역(구시군)/성씨·본관별 가구 및 copy인구 |accessdate=2007-03-01 |deadurlurl-status=yesdead |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20070301110942/http://kosis.nso.go.kr/cgi-bin/sws_999.cgi?ID=DT_1INOOSB&IDTYPE=3 |archivedate=2007-03-01 |df= }}</ref> Of these, the great majority are members of the [[Gyeongju]] Seok [[bon-gwan|clan]] and the [[Chungju]] (also called Hongju) Seok clan. The latter had a 2000 South Korean population of 9,544. The [[Gyeongju]] Seok clan claims descent from certain of the early rulers of [[Silla]]; the first Gyeongju Seok to sit on the throne was the fourth Silla king, [[Talhae of Silla|Talhae]].
 
In a study by the [[National Institute of the Korean Language]] based on 2007 application data for [[Republic of Korea passport|South Korean passports]], it was found that 61.3% of people with that surname spelled it in Latin letters as Seok in their passports, vs. 30.6% as Suk. Rarer alternative spellings (the remaining 8.1%) included Seog, Sok, Souk, and Sock.<ref>{{cite book|url=http://korean.go.kr/front/etcData/etcDataView.do?etc_seq=179&mn_id=46|title=성씨 로마자 표기 방안: 마련을 위한 토론회|trans-title=Plan for romanisation of surnames: a preparatory discussion|publisher=National Institute of the Korean Language|date=25 June 2009|accessdate=22 October 2015|page=61}}</ref>
