Wikipedia is not a memorial. Article didn't seem to qualify for a7, but it still shouldn't is not notable enough for inclusion. Captain panda 22:49, 9 September 2007 (UTC)

If he can fill it out some more, it might be worth keeping. The article as it is now basically just says 'She's dead. Oh, and here's a couple of things she did'. As it is now, I agree: it's deletion-worthy. HalfShadow 23:18, 9 September 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete unless reliable sources can be found. Right now the only sources appear to be memorial (obit?) pages on semi-reliable (news blog) media. This is the strongest English result I could find, a review of the show, and it only lists her among the cast. --Dhartung | Talk 23:49, 9 September 2007 (UTC)

I really don't care much about some random actress but I'm really don't like your attitudes... This is patent ignorance + cultural bias...

Just because something can't be found in English media, it doesn't mean it's not notable... There are far less notable English speaking entertainers listed here in Wikipedia... how exactly do you define the notability of entertainers? Appearance on American TV? if that's your standard then i suggest you delete every article on European/Asian/South American/Caribean/African entertainers. After all, not many of them are very well known in English speaking Medias...

Which one of you regularly watch Japanese, Chinese, or Korean, TV in the 1990's may I ask? Did any one of you maybe went over to the korean protal and ask for some one's opinions over there?

I wouldn't really object to deleting this article on grounds of notability but if that's the case i expect to see you delete pretty much every article in categories like algerian muscians and finnish actors and the like (i'm not entirely kidding, click it through, pretty much all of the articles about finnish actors are about the same quality as this one.)

p.s. personally i think having your death, as a foreigner, announced in major news sites like Xinhua News Agency qualifies as notable... [1]
