No references - and article has been around since 2006. No notability and no assertion of notability. No evidence of any chart success. Fails WP:BAND  Velella  Velella Talk   22:30, 17 December 2011 (UTC)

  • Keep- "has composed a number of film scores" is an assertion of notability. Has performed at a Korean inauguration, a nationally broadcast New Year's event ditrector director, and composed music showcased at the 2002 FIFA World Cup. I agree that current article here & ko.wiki page both need attention. Dru of Id (talk) 02:39, 18 December 2011 (UTC)
  • Keep - This [http://www.koreatimes.co.kr/www/news/art/2010/09/148_72172.html article] refers to him as a "national legend for his classical music pieces". I suspect there are better sources available in Korean. -- Whpq (talk) 18:55, 20 December 2011 (UTC)

:Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

  • Keep. Multiple assertions of notability makes this an easy one, but the Korea Times reference seals it for me: major newspapers don't call classical composers "national legends" unless they truly are. --NellieBly (talk) 06:20, 25 December 2011 (UTC)
  • Keep. As per preceding voters. I've also added a half-dozen add'l sources to the article, including a substantial Allmusic bio. --Hobbes Goodyear (talk) 18:13, 25 December 2011 (UTC)
