圳 • (su, cheon) (hangeul 수, 천, revised su, cheon, McCune–Reischauer su, ch'ŏn)

1. Used in placename (See 深圳)

• Note: the pronunciation 수(su), which is attested as standard in most of Korean hanja dictionaries, is reconstructed from Fanqie, whereas 천(cheon) is derived from the modern Chinese pronunciation. As this hanja is not used in common Sino-Korean words, 천 is used in most of Korean dialogues and documents.
