"Hello. This is Woollim Entertainment.
We would like to inform you of the progress of the legal response to protect Kwon Eunbi's rights and interests.
Previously, we have shared the mental damage the artist has been experiencing due to serious defamation, including sexual harassment, posts that personally attack her character, the dissemination of false information, and invasion of privacy.
We have collected numerous posts and filed the first complaint against those who have indiscriminately defamed Kwon Eunbi, as well as insulted her, sexually harassed her, spread false news, posted malicious slander, and distributed fictional obscene photos that synthesized the artist's likeness. The evidence is currently being investigated by the police.
We would like to make it clear that these are clearly criminal acts, and according to the evidence collected, we will continue to take strong legal action against those who fall under the defamation of character under the Information and Communications Network Act and insult under criminal law.
Additionally, we will continue to actively gather proof and self-monitor malicious posts to protect our artists with all our best. Therefore, we encourage fans to report any malicious posts or criminal actions that target our artists and report them to our official email account.
We, Woollim Entertainment, will do our best to protect the rights and honor of our artists.
Thank you."
