Does anyone know why John Woo's main name was changed into John Woo Yu-Sum? What romanization is this? And in what movie was he credited like that? And why does "John Woo" not even appear as an Alias even though it's his most common name?

Driven by this questions, I have now checked as much movie credits as possible, here are the results:
