Incorrect artist's name

Incorrect artist's name

Searching Google for an album title, I get two links to Spotify (album/tracks have slight variation in naming):

The artist's name ("JO YURI") is correct. However, clicking on the name, her page does not show either of these albums. Not in the Discography section and not in the Appears On section.

 

Here's where it gets complicated... Searching for the name of the album (or song) on Spotify gives one album result:

On this album, the artist name is "Jo You Ree", and clicking that goes to an artist page with a single album shown in the Discography section.

 

My guess is that someone initially translated the Korean name incorrectly to something that sounds similar. And that album got "stuck".

 

It seems that the tracks on all albums have the same Spotify Id. So going from the correct album to a track, and then to the album linked in the track, goes to the album with the incorrect name.

 

My issue is this; Going to the artist's page I could not find this album, because it has an incorrect artist linked to it. What other albums am I missing? And how do I find out about those?

 

Doesn't make sense having to spend time on Google to find albums on Spotify... And that is really cumbersome when I'm following lots of artists...
