Fails WP:GNG. No evidence of notability,this is the third or fourth time a page for this person is being deleted and while it seems to be different from the last version I saw nothing has changed in the time since that page was removed to have made this person individually notable.he just was guest in one or a few episodes in some variety shows and a member of web variety show his songwriter work is for his band BTS he has not his own song without any chart he has not any notable work delete this page and redirect to BTS.(Toomass (talk) 10:11, 13 August 2016 (UTC))

• Delete redirect and protect. Per WP:NMUSIC, group members with no notability outside the band are redirected to the band's page. --kelapstick^(bainuu) 16:24, 13 August 2016 (UTC)
• I think he has established quite a notable presence other than BTS. His variety appearances actually have some importance, especially his recent 'King of Masked Singer' appearance, which his songs were actually released on Melon, which actually counts as a song that could be counted on the chart and therefore counts as one of the criteria on Wikipedia's notability guideline. Also wouldn't his collaborations with other artists count as his own solo work other than BTS, as these songs don't count as work under BTS. I'm not really sure why this page keeps getting deleted as he has a lot more notability than other Kpop idols who have their own wikipedia page, and I do not mean this to offend in any way. The other members besides Rapmonster do not have wikipedia pages themselves and I say that is fair but Jungkook has been increasingly showing his notability nowadays. A lot of "new" fans want to learn about him so this page would be a good way for them to get to know him. Also under WP:ENT I see that he fulfills the "2. Has a large fan base or a significant "cult" following" and also "1.Has had significant roles in multiple notable films, television shows, stage performances, or other productions.", especially with his recent appearances which are pretty notable.

• Strong Delete. no notable solo work in his career he was just guest in some varity show no cast member,no drama ,no own song (even kim taehyung "other BTS member" that has more variety appearance and acting in drama is not notable yet) his solo work is not notable enough for separate wikipedia page.redirect and protect.(Shin hi (talk) 14:35, 15 August 2016 (UTC))
• Delete. A bunch of variety show appearances don't make a person notable. I note that Hahahey568 appears to be turning a lot of pages into fan pages, judging from the addition of songwriting credits for a lot of these kinds of artists, and from non-neutral and inflated headings such as "2015-Present: Recognition With BTS and Variety Show Appearances" in this particular article. Return to the redirect. BTW, I didn't see this AfD until after I removed those credits; I was led here because I just redirected Suga (singer), a very similar case, back to the main article. For fan base and all that, there is simply no evidence that he has a fan base apart from his band's fan base. And none of those roles are of course significant in any real way; they are just appearances on show programs which frequently are vehicles of the entertainment companies that own the bands.

• Delete as was the case with Minzy's page before, just because a member is popular does not mean they need a separate page. Peachywink (talk) 00:57, 17 August 2016 (UTC)
