~~Delete.~~ Redirect. He was a part of a reality TV show, but doesn't pass WP:NACTOR. The TV show put them into a boy band, but he isn't notable outside the band. Found a few articles on him but it was the same kpop fan website. The only thing that can possibly be an argument is "Has a large fan base or a significant "cult" following" but even then there's not that much of a cult following around the person.

REDIRECT to Wanna One, the band of which he is a major member. Article can be resurrected in the future if he develops an independent career. -Zanhe (talk) 02:11, 23 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Good point, redirect does sound like a better choice here. Awsomaw (talk) 17:19, 23 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
