How can 쥬디 be Zudy when it should be Zudi?
Zudy, (쥬디, pronounced “ju-dee”) should be Zudi because ㄷ is "d" andㅣis "ee" romanized as "i". This is confusing. Can anyone explain.

I think the spelling a name is up to the owner of that name.
Standard romanization of 쥬디 would be "Judi" though,
Zudy, Zudi, Judy, Jiudi are all able to read 쥬디.

In English (especially for names) we have different ways to spell the same sounding name depending on if it's a boy or a girl. The most common change is to replace a "y" with an "i". Example: Tony (boy) Toni (girl) but same pronunciation, so with Zudy or Zudi - it has the same sound but maybe the Entertainment company wanted it to seem more feminine so they wrote it as Zudi.
