Here's what happened.
SNSD Yuri's ID Photo Being Sold in Karrot Market for $40 — Why Was It Taken Down?
Recently, K-pop fans, particularly SONEs (fandom), were confused when a seller from the buy-and-sell application Karrot Market listed Girls' Generation's ID photo for $40 (50,000 KRW).
This became known to the fandom's knowledge when internet users posted the photo and the ad in various media and online communities.
Meanwhile, Karrot Market reminded sellers that while it is possible to sell celebrity goods, making profits by selling celebrity photos without consent can lead to infringement of rights.
On the other hand, Yuri, who is currently actively promoting as a soloist, is in the middle of her solo Asian fan meeting tour "2023 YURI 2nd FANMEETING TOUR [Chapter 2]," starting from Seoul to Manila and Bangkok and will continue her fan meeting in Taipei on August 6 to meet fans around the world.
