Isn't his name, Jung Pil-kyo, translate into Steve? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.37.244.245 (talk)

How does Pil-kyo mean "Steve?" As a Korean, I don't see that. mirageinred 03:20, 14 April 2007 (UTC)
Well I don't mean translate, I mean like his english name. I saw on some music myspaces that said his english name is Steve. And I come look at this page and saw that it now says that Steve is his english name. I don't know for sure if it is or not.
When he lived in America, his English name was Steve. His Korean name is Pil-Kyo. Though he doesn't use Steve as a public name, his fans sometimes use it for site names and other stuff related to him.--Hsstorm 05:30, 30 April 2007 (UTC)


[edit] The Drunk-driving

I just want to know, is it really necessary to have this stuck on the page like some kind of crime report. If we listed all the incidents anyone has ever had it would be ridiculous, and this is an incident. Everyone makes mistakes, and this just gives a bad impression. If no one objects in a week I am taking the drunk-driving thing off. Thanks.--Hsstorm 05:49, 30 April 2007 (UTC)

Well... it kinda breaks balance if we just put out the good things... Even if it was just once-in-a-lifetime screw up, it still did happen. People do crusify celebrities from a lot smaller things and some people have strong opinions on alcohol usage. Monni 12:16, 30 April 2007 (UTC)
I would like to object. Drunk driving is not a minor offense and thus noteworthy. Other biographies have information about infractions, too, so it's not an unprecedented thing. mirageinred 19:17, 30 April 2007 (UTC)
I agree that it is noteworthy, and even the most loyal fans are criticizing him. What I'm saying is, can we make it so it doesn't look like the main fact of his life. I'm not saying the mistake should be skipped over like it didn't happen, but maybe it's possible to put it so anyone having a look at the page for the first time doesn't get an impression of "Stupid drunk person, doesn't deserve to be famous and successful". Because that's the image a lot of people are getting when I introduced them to the page. The bad things shouldn't be ignored, but to give the impression that just because of a mistake all good things turn to dust is just as nonsensical. His biography isn't even that long, and the infraction thing is looking like it's the only thing he ever did.Hsstorm 04:39, 1 May 2007 (UTC)



[edit] Expansion

Browsing other singers' biographies I've noticed that this one is pretty short. Has no one bothered to put up stuff about his education and so on, like other biography pages? This is part of the problem and the reason why the drunk-driving is seeming like it was the main event of his life. If no one objects I'll start expanding soon. Hsstorm 05:43, 1 May 2007 (UTC)

Never hurts to expand. Just be sure to have good sources.=) mirageinred 20:59, 1 May 2007 (UTC)

I've expanded his page, but am not really sure about anything, including the grammars. I'm not the biggest fan of Hyesung, no offense. Do try to correct my mistake.

Nice job=). It looks so much better. I just removed some trivias like blood type and redundant facts like his birth date. mirageinred 01:21, 10 May 2007 (UTC)
