Delete –- Fails notability... not enough albums released before disbanding.

Comment - In 2012, ~ten years after they disappeared, they received coverage in reliable sources, Donga Ilbo and Chosun Ilbo. Looks like it was reports of discovering the one member had passed the bar exam. It's hard to find sources from 2002, so hard to know how notable they may have been then, but the 10-years-later attention in major media makes me wonder. No strong opinion either way, but maybe some more searching can be done before deleting?

Comment Sang-eun is "almost" notable as solo singer, she has several singles released, but no full album yet. Time will tell, I guess...

Keep. I recognize the issue with sources, but it seems to me that's more an indication that it's hard for mostly English-language speakers to find Korean sources more than a decade after the group has broken up. The fact that it was worth noting in the media that one of the members now has a new career as a lawyer says to me that the group is notable. The is a link that was formerly to Billboard Korea; but it's dead now; the main page
www.billboardk.com now has a note in Korean saying that the entire site is now discontinued. I personally remember their music, it kind of surprises me that they've faded to obscurity, but
notability is not temporary. It might make sense to post on the talk page for
ko:신비_(음악_그룹) and ask for input and sources.
