I‘m not sure about Korean, but I believe Chinese names are usually written with the family name first and the given name second, as in Japanese. Depending on the size of your collection and catalogue, you might consider choosing one form, and then make a cross-reference from the other one to the one you have chosen, e.g. „Weining Meng : see Meng Weining“. That‘s common practice. For your comfort: I once worked for a couple of months in a great library, back when catalogues were still on card files, and was shocked to discover that all the Hungarian authors had been filed under their given names instead of their family names (because the family name also comes first in Hungarian names). 😳 🤪🤣
