Meets notability criteria for politics (Member of Parliament) and Very senior military positions plus for military decorations. I wish the sourcing was better and in English but clearly notable and not going to be deleted so let's let editors work on improving this. Legacypac ( talk) 19:28, 5 November 2018 (UTC) reply

This book has info on him [1] Legacypac ( talk) 19:40, 5 November 2018 (UTC) reply

Subject was born 98 years ago, whicb makes one wonder if he is still alive. Maybe someone can sort that out - likely will need to know Korean. Legacypac ( talk) 10:21, 6 November 2018 (UTC) reply

I found an uncited death date on another wikipedia page. It is likely correct (soon after he left government) so I inserted it. Better than showing he is alive. I was unable to cite his early career but since the rest of bio info absolutely checked out I have no reason to doubt the early info provided by the IP that started this. I'm sure it can be sourced by a Korean speaker. Legacypac ( talk) 23:53, 7 November 2018 (UTC) reply
