SSAK3

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Non-notable project group, like Unnies, a project K-Pop girl group formed thru a Korean reailty show Sister's Slam Dunk. Fails to qualify WP:MUSICBIO. SkyHigher (talk) 08:19, 8 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Keep: They have had three singles enter the top ten of Gaon's Digital Chart. Abdotorg (talk) 13:51, 8 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Keep: Disagree. Highly notable project group in comparison. Also won an award. Also doing it for charity. Also Yoo Jae Suk. Enough Said. Abdotorg (talk) 13:51, 8 August 2020 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:602:8980:5600:C86E:4EDB:387C:4263 (talk)

 * Keep - The above voter is correct about the Korean charts; see also . I must also point out that the nominator committed the WP:OTHERSTUFF fallacy. Despite their cheesy origins, this group has gotten media coverage in Korea because it is made up of longtime established media personalities; see, , . Also it's not a teen group; the youngest member is 38. I'm not a big fan of the trend in Wikipedia for short articles merely announcing the existence of K-Pop groups, but this particular nomination needed more effort during the WP:BEFORE process. ---  DOOMSDAYER 520 (Talk&#124;Contribs) 14:15, 9 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Keep: Not defending my own article creation, but when I created the article, the Korean and Chinese wiki pages were already created. Based on the popularity of the group, I was surprised that the English ver. wasn't being created. The comparison with other group projects like UNNIE is totally of a different league. SSAK3 is also producing physical albums - something which other groups formed in Korean reality shows haven't done before. This is the clear distinct of the difference. SSAK3, their korean name/term including logo are also currently pending trademark application on KIPRIS (Korea Intellectual Property Rights Information Service), UNNIES is not even a registered trademark. As of the time of writing this, their song has been & is still placed 1st on major digital charts in Korea. Yienshawn (talk) 18:26, 13 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Keep as passes WP:NMUSIC criteria 2 (only one criteria needed) with high charting releases on a national chart as confirmed in reliable sources so they should be included, imv Atlantic306 (talk) 22:52, 14 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Keep per all of the above. Olaf Kosinsky (talk) 13:24, 15 August 2020 (UTC)
