Solo (EP)[edit]
... that medium pop and R&B "Crying" is Heo Young-saeng's lead track in his 2012 EP Solo despite wanting to do light rock?

- This hook needs fixing. What is medium pop? Is the word song supposed to be after R&B? Young-saeng, not "Crying", should be the subject of "wanting to do light rock". hinnk (talk) 05:20, 8 June 2015 (UTC)
- I based "medium pop" from this Korean article and this English article, but I guess the better translation would be "medium-tempo pop" just like what this article stated..? I also rearranged the hook into this:

Full review needed; original hook struck as problematic. BlueMoonset (talk) 16:30, 6 July 2015 (UTC)
As far as I can see, Heo chose to perform the song rather than being "given" it. What about a completely different hook
- ALT2 ... that the lyrics for "Crying", the lead track on Heo Young-saeng's 2012 EP Solo, were written by Heo himself? Cwmhiraeth (talk) 06:18, 21 July 2015 (UTC)
I gave the article a thorough copyedit, removing the fancruft. The ALT2 by User:Cwmhiraeth is definitely better than the original. Here is a complete review: 5x expansion verified. New enough, long enough, well referenced, neutrally written, no close paraphrasing seen. ALT2 hook ref verified and cited inline. QPQ done. ALT1 good to go. Yoninah (talk) 19:34, 23 July 2015 (UTC)
