D.O. (entertainer) → Doh Kyung-soo – I propose moving/renaming this article to Doh Kyung-soo as it has become the primary identifier for the subject in his current professional capacity as a soloist and actor (WP:KOREANNAME, WP:COMMONNAME, and WP:NATURAL). The subject is now credited as Doh Kyung-soo across all his filmography, his recent solo music albums (Blossom (Doh Kyung-soo EP) and Bliss) under Company Soosoo, how Blitzway introduced him, and his Instagram account. The following Korean English-language articles are also excellent evidence: The Chosun Ilbo, Korea JoongAng Daily, and The Korea Times. ꕥ 𝙳.𝟷𝟾𝚝𝚑 ꕥ ^{→𝙼𝚎𝚜𝚜𝚊𝚐𝚎 𝚖𝚎←} 03:49, 20 January 2026 (UTC) — Relisting.

Noting that his preferred spelling is "Doh Kyung Soo", per his company's website . His insta seems to support this . I would need to see COMMONNAME statistics in order to make a judgment; not sure how to vote. Lately I'm increasingly sympathetic to respecting the spelling preferred by the person.

Also be mindful about citing The Chosun Ilbo's english section; they use AI translation so shouldn't be relied on for common name spellings. grapesurgeon (talk) 05:25, 20 January 2026 (UTC)Reply
