The word 主持人 is formed through a logical, meaning-based construction where three characters combine to depict a role: 主 means "master" or "primary", 持 means "to hold" or "to manage", and 人 means "person". When sequenced, they create the concept of "the primary person who manages or holds (an event)", visually and conceptually representing a host or presenter who is the person in charge of steering proceedings.
