Owner review 13, lane C2: domains and social handles for Madang, Duri, Dodam, Oreum (2026-10-13)
Status: Draft · Date: 2026-10-13 · Lane C2 of owner review 13. Inputs: the owner's question and the four finalists, the review-12 rulings and word research. Audience: the owner. Nothing outside this file was changed.
Owner, review 13 (verbatim). "Oreum is also fine, I think. Can you research the 4 words to see if we can actually use them?"
0. Method and limits
All checks ran on 2026-10-13 from one machine with curl and nc, at least 3 s apart per service. "Free" means the registry answered "not found". It does not mean cheap: a registry can still hold a premium or reserved name, and the registrar's checkout is the final test.
| Ending | How checked | Result meaning |
|---|---|---|
.com | RDAP https://rdap.verisign.com/com/v1/domain/<name> (rdap.org redirects here) | 200 taken, 404 free |
.app | RDAP https://pubapi.registry.google/rdap/domain/<name> | same |
.club | RDAP https://rdap.nic.club/domain/<name> | same |
.tennis | RDAP https://rdap.identitydigital.services/rdap/domain/<name> | same |
.kr, .co.kr | RDAP https://rdap.kisa.or.kr/domain/<name> (worked; gives creation date, no registrar) | same |
.co | WHOIS port 43 whois.registry.co | "DOMAIN NOT FOUND" free |
.io | WHOIS port 43 whois.nic.io | "Domain not found." free |
Trap found: https://rdap.org/domain/x.co and .io return 404 for every name, because neither ending has an RDAP service in the IANA bootstrap. A 404 there means nothing; that is why those two use WHOIS.
Raw results: every row is reproducible with the URL pattern above. Prices of parked .com names are not checked (the parking pages are JavaScript and Afternic and Dan redirect without a price). Manual URLs: https://www.afternic.com/forsale/<domain>, https://dan.com/buy-domain/<domain>, https://sedo.com/search/details/?domain=<domain>.
Not checked: Instagram and Threads (both return an identical login shell for real and made-up handles, so status codes say nothing), Naver Band (bands have numeric ids, not handles), TikTok for duri and orum (the page returned no status field). Manual URLs: https://www.instagram.com/<handle>/, https://www.threads.com/@<handle>.

Notes: dodam.co shows "Registrar: .co Registry" created 2025-11-07, which usually means the registry itself is holding the name (reserved or premium). dodam.kr was registered 2026-05-24 and orum.kr 2026-09-01: someone registered both this year. oroom.kr is free.
4. Social handles
Weak evidence. X: 200 taken, 404 free (a made-up handle returned 404, so the signal separates, but a suspended or dormant account still counts as taken). YouTube @handle: 200 taken, 404 free (control @google returned 200). TikTok: the page's embedded status 0 is taken, 10221 is free (control made-up handle returned 10221). Naver Blog blog.naver.com/<id>: 200 taken, 404 free (control returned 404). Taken only says the handle is registered, not that it is active or a rival.

6. Verdicts and the domain plan
Verdict covers domains and handles only, not trademarks or app stores (lanes C1 and C3).
| Word | Verdict | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| Dodam | Usable with conditions | Best domain position of the four: dodam.app and dodam.io free, all .com prefixes free, dodamapp handle free on every checked site. Conditions: bare .com is not obtainable cheaply, .kr was grabbed in May 2026, and the bare handle is taken everywhere checked |
| Madang | Usable with conditions | .com, .app, .kr, .co.kr, .co, .io all taken, and madang.app is a live Korean community site. Only .club, .tennis and .com prefixes are free |
| Oreum | Risky | Direct neighbour: oreum.app hosts a live Jeju oreum app, and the bare word is a registered handle on three platforms. Free: .club, .tennis, .com prefixes. Expect confusion with that app |
| Duri | Risky | duri.com is a live consumer brand, duri.app is parked, duriapp.com is taken. duri.io and getduri.com are free |
| Doori | Risky | Bare .com and .app taken, but every .com prefix and suffix is free. The extra "o" hurts the Korean reading |
| Orum | Blocked | orum.com and orum.app are live companies, and .kr was registered in 2026-09 |
| Oroom | Usable with conditions | Domains are the most open of any spelling (oroom.app, oroom.kr free), but "oroom" reads as "or room" and is the weakest as a word; the bare handle is taken on X, YouTube and TikTok |
Domain plan per word (what to register first, in order):
- Dodam:
dodam.app+dodam.io(defensive) +getdodam.comordodamapp.com+dodam.club. Ask thedodam.comholder for a price later; it is optional. - Madang:
getmadang.com+madang.club+madang.tennis. Do not plan on.app. - Oreum:
oreum.club+getoreum.com; reconsider the word before spending, because oforeum.app. - Duri:
duri.io+getduri.com; the.comis a different business. - Doori:
dooriapp.com+getdoori.com+doori.club; check thedoori.comparking price, since it did not answer HTTP. - Orum: do not use.
- Oroom:
oroom.app+oroom.kr+getoroom.com.
Where the product ships under a prefixed .com, the store title and social handle can still carry the bare word with a suffix such as dodamapp, which was free on all four checked sites.
7. Questions for the owner
- Is a prefixed
.com(getdodam.com) acceptable as the web address, with a.appor.ioas the clean short link? That decides whether Dodam, Madang and Oroom stay in the running. - Should we price the parked
.comnames (madang.com,oroom.com,doori.com) at Afternic before choosing? I could not read the prices.
