Couldn't find enough coverage or verify sales/charting mentioned on the artist's page. I guess I can't definitely call this non-notable, but it's at least gonna need some work to meet that burden of proof, and if it can't do that then it should be redirected to G.NA.

Keep, I think; but could use some help from a Korean-language speaker. It charted at #22 (debuted there and never went higher); and it got coverage in Korean-language news (e.g., [1]; [2]; [3]) (She's sometimes identified in Korea as "지나" rather than "G.NA", which helps a little on googling.) I think those satisfy a couple of the factors in WP:NALBUM (1. "been the subject of multiple, non-trivial, published works..."; and 2. "has appeared on any country's national music chart").

I'll add the charting; I'm reluctant to add the news coverage, since I don't read Korean and would need to rely on machine translation. TJRC (talk) 02:55, 15 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I just noticed that the article as it exists says it peaked at #1; but the reference has rotted away, even via the wayback machine, and I cannot independently verify that.

If it indeed was a #1-charting album, it would certainly meet notability; but I'm a little skeptical of that. TJRC (talk) 03:06, 15 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Gaon Music Chart was rebranded as Circle Chart last year, so anything that wasn't archived on the Wayback Machine died, but the charts are all available on the Circle Chart website. The album peaked at number 11 [4]. It was the song that topped the chart [5], which ranked at number 22 on the year-end chart [6]. ✗plicit 03:40, 22 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Yes the title song for the album seems to have been number one for two weeks..but on the show M countdown, which is like a south korean music chart show. Waltzingmogumogupeach (talk) 17:22, 26 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
