Official English name of Lee Jaijin
[edit]Hello fellow Wikipedians,
The official English name of SechsKies member 이재진 is Lee Jaijin, not Jaejin or Jai-jin. Please see YG's official facebook for SechsKies (https://www.facebook.com/OfficialSECHSKIES), and the two new official teasers of SECHSKIES which state his name.[1][2]
Also, fans have emailed YG and YG has confirmed that his official English name is Lee Jaijin. According to YG, Lee Jaijin chose "Jaijin" (not Jaejin) as his official name. So fans are trying to correct the name before it is too late. It has already been 6 months since SechsKies has made a comeback. As there is another Korean singer with the same Korean name (i.e. Lee Jaejin of FT Island), please take caution and use Jaijin for the SechsKies member.
Some users insist on moving the page to "Lee Jai-jin."
If you read this document (https://wiki.riteme.site/wiki/Wikipedia:Naming_conventions_(Korean)#Given_name), it clearly says "If there is no personal preference, and no established English spelling, hyphenate the syllables, with only the first syllable capitalized (e.g., Hong Gil-dong)."
In case of Jaijin, there is an official English name, Lee Jaijin, announced by his agency, YG Entertainment via the official page for SECHSKIES. People can make their own decisions in choosing how to write their names. Official names are particularly important for celebrities. Please respect the official English name, and use Jaijin.
I would appreciate it greatly if you could please keep an eye out for IP users, who may try to change Jaijin's name back to the wrong one (Jaejin or Jai-jin).
Thank you! (talk) Yelkie (talk) 11:55, 18 November 2016 (UTC)
