Strong keep, extensive coverage in reliable sources. I have added many to the article, including 20 paragraphs from the BBC ([1]). Antrocent (♫♬) 23:02, 24 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - There is extensive coverage in reliable sources. I mean, the BBC has a whole article about her. I can't understand how the subject of the article isn't notable. RileyBugz ^会話 _投稿記録 13:08, 25 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Delete a non-notable businesswoman.John Pack Lambert (talk) 23:53, 27 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Delete -- a BLP that lacks sources that discuss the subject directly and in detail, resulting in a directory-like listing for an unremarkable entreprenuer. The BBC story is an interview. I also note that Peach & Lily has been recently deleted, with the deleting admin noting that the creator was suspected of being part of a sock farm. We generally don't keep articles on entrepreneurs whose only claim to notability is being CEO of a nn company. The WP:Promo concerns also apply. K.e.coffman (talk) 02:07, 1 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

This article discusses the subject in detail:

Clift, Cortney (12 July 2017). "Alicia Yoon: The Korean Beauty Pioneer Combining Two Worlds Into One". Brit + Co.

Note that Peach & Lily was deleted via WP:PROD, which does not carry much weight as such a deletion can be overturned upon any request. Antrocent (♫♬) 03:20, 1 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Comment -- the brit.co source listed above is from Brit + Co, which is described as "a media company that inspires, educates, and entertains real women with a creative spirit through content, online classes, and creative products". For all we know, it's a promo piece that could have been placed there by the subject's publicists. I'd treat it as a WP:SPIP source. K.e.coffman (talk) 06:39, 3 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Keep: The sources quoted already show Yoon has made an important mark as an entrepreneur. Google reveals numerous other secondary sources if these are needed.--Ipigott (talk) 10:04, 4 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Keep I strongly think this should be kept, not least because of the extensive BBC article (which is not an interview). As others have said already, there are plenty of other reliable sources, some of which have been identified here. It's an obvious keep for me. Dysklyver 14:24, 4 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Keep with perspective of editing. If it is possible to expand this article with information from different websites in English, Greek etc. and describe activity of Yoon's company in the same article. The subject may be notable, because Alicia Yoon is featured in many sources, but the article clearly needs editing.Tarja Kardash (talk) 15:52, 4 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
