– The singer, Kim Chae-won, born in 2000, appears to be the primary topic. Btspurplegalaxy 🗩 🖉 04:42, 14 May 2022 (UTC) — Relisting. >>> Extorc.talk 17:19, 25 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Agree the move, since Le Sserafim Chae-won is probably the most famous and notable of the Kim Chae-wons around the world and Korea. NelsonLee20042020 (talk) 01:10, 20 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Kim Chae-wonKim Chaewon – Similarly to Huh Yunjin, proposing removing hyphen from name as it seems:

  • the subject seemingly has a preference that her name not be romanized with the hyphen (Wikipedia:Naming conventions (Korean))
  • the subject's name is romanized with no hyphen in all official releases, and by the subject's agency
  • the name is romanized without the hyphen in a large number of English-language reliable sources (WP:COMMONNAME)

Examples: Teen Vogue, People Magazine, NME, Star News Korea, Yonhap News Agency, The Korea Times, Republic, Hypebeast, The Korea Herald, Korea JoongAng Daily, Rappler, Voice of Indonesia, Maeil Business Newspaper, Korean Broadcasting System, The Donga Ilbo, The Hankook Ilbo,

Of course, you'll also find some sources that romanize it with the hyphen. But I'd argue that the subject's assumed preference that her name be romanized without the hyphen (WP:NCKO) (per her social media romanizing without the hyphen, credited in solo releases without the hyphen[2], romanized by her agency without the hyphen[3] etc), combined with the wide variety of English-language reliable sources that romanize it without the hyphen (WP:COMMONNAME), this should be reflected in this article.
