Keep - She's song "I Have a Lover" has become an mega-hit throughout the country of South Korea. -- Kanghuitari (talk) 02:36, 7 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

This is not related to the inclusion criteria in any way. – Finnusertop (talk ⋅ contribs) 18:51, 7 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

It is, if you read WP:BAND a nationally charted single is one of the criteria. Shawn in Montreal (talk) 19:11, 7 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Nope, her single never charted on the Gaon Music Chart. Donottroll (talk) 19:23, 7 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Oh well, if that's the case, sure. Hardly a mega-hit. Shawn in Montreal (talk) 21:53, 7 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

"I Have a Lover" is old song, not newly song. but Gaon Chart launched 2010.. -- Kanghuitari (talk) 01:03, 8 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Lee Eun-mi is very notable in South Korea. She hold 600 concert tours in South Korea. ([1]), and she was awarded Artist award from South Korean Government ([2]) -- Kanghuitari (talk) 01:28, 8 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep. I did some Google searches, and Lee Eun-mi seems to be notable in South Korea. Several of her songs are described as hits. Here are some English-language sources: [3], [4], [5], [6], [7], [8], [9]. Random86 (talk) 03:22, 8 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Keep please. I'm just hearing about this well-beloved singer, but apparently I'm behind the times. I found this well-written bio of hers typed up under the "show more" section of this YouTube video of the song in question "I Have A Lover" [10]], and starting to verify the facts there, I found that indeed she performed at the USA Korean Music Festival for the years mentioned 2006, 2007, 2010. The unreferenced bio gives a lot of English language leads for a researcher like me that has to sometimes match English blog or poor source translations like Allkpop, Soompi, etc. to gather an understanding of the Korean language newspaper and magazine sources I do find. Just part of the challenge of adding more South Korean articles to English WP and duplicating those already on Korean language WP. I see this singer has a page there already. And I am especially interested in adding and helping keep pages with a connection to the USA, and this singer's attention here has piqued my interest!--Bonnielou2013 (talk) 03:54, 8 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

P.S. Random86 just saw your note! How resourceful of you to play with the spelling of her names to gather these articles! Donottroll is keeping us busy this week! Do you want to add the information or shall I do it using your references?--Bonnielou2013 (talk) 04:01, 8 March 2016 (UTC) This one is very useful [11]--Bonnielou2013 (talk) 04:23, 8 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Bonnielou2013, please use my references to improve the article. It looks like the article can be expanded quite a bit. The reference you found has a lot of information too. Random86 (talk) 07:35, 8 March 2016 (UTC) Thanks, looks good...now to find the time!--Bonnielou2013 (talk) 08:23, 8 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
