In the wiki, when you click on the account name it actually says "There 
is currently no text in this page" rather than "there is no user".  The 
user exists, they have edited 2 or 3 pages (see 
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/%EA%B8%B0%ED%9B%84_%EB%B3%80%ED%99%94 
), all fairly recently.  They just have no text on their personal page yet.

There isn't an OSM username that matches that wiki username, but that's 
not particularly a surprise - many users have different OSM and wiki 
usernames (and many have more than one OSM username, of course).

Best Regards,

Andy
