Fails WP:NSKATE. Kirin13 (talk) 23:37, 17 December 2014 (UTC)
 * Per WP:NSKATE, figure skaters must have participated internationally at the junior or senior level (Park has only competed internationally once and that was at novice level) or won nationals at senior level (Park has only medaled at junior level nationals).

 * Delete I always hesitate on deleting foreign language articles, but in this case I've have to say he's not notable. While I can't read Korean, I know what skating looks like, and searching Google Images for his Korean name yields very few images that even look like skating. For comparison, searching images on the name of another articles this editor has created shows that this technique is quite value even among skaters that marginally pass WP:NSKATE. If nothing else, it suggests there is someone more famous with the same name (since same names are common in Korea).  However, there does seem to be a language barrier, so I'd leave this AfD open a little longer than most. If somebody can translate the AfD notification into Korean (not machine translated) in the primary author's talk, that'd probably be the right thing to do.  — Code  Hydro  20:03, 18 December 2014 (UTC)
