Article doesn't present any claim to the company's notability, and checking Google for news about them shows that they are most likely not notable. —moonythedwarf (Braden N.) 19:09, 6 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete The criteria for establishing notability for companies/organizations as per WP:NCORP is for multiple sources (at least two) of significant coverage with in-depth information *on the company* and (this bit is important!) containing "Independent Content". "Independent content", in order to count towards establishing notability, must include original and independent opinion, analysis, investigation, and fact checking that are clearly attributable to a source unaffiliated to the subject. None of the references in the article meet the criteria and having searched I am unable to locate any references that meet the criteria. Topic fails GNG/WP:NCORP.

- Neutral There is not much to be found in English sources, but this suggests it might be notable in Korea without there being English sources. "... music, according to the statem|nt. Ahnlab Profit Up 50.4% South Korean computer security leader Ahnlab Inc. reported a 504-percent surge in third-quarter net profit thanks to pbust sales of anti-virus software and online security services. https://www.google.com/books/edition/Korea_Economic_Report/Cey0AAAAIAAJ?hl=en&gbpv=0" There are more sources including these two, but the coverage is insignificant. I'd say it's too early to dismiss it without someone checking for things in Korean. https://www.koreatimes.co.kr/www/tech/2019/11/133_278423.html http://www.koreaherald.com/view.php?ud=20201019000867Graywalls (talk) 19:14, 19 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
