We have collected thousands of pieces of evidence regarding malicious posts and comments related to Taeyeon.
On a two-day basis, we are continuously preparing and receiving hundreds of complaints to investigative agencies for insults, defamation, etc.
We would like to inform you that many of these defendants have been identified and investigations are in progress. Recently, suspicion of malicious intent has been additionally confirmed in two cases (insults, etc.)
1) Suspension of indictment conditional on completion of training at ‘Probation Office’, 2) Final disposition decision from the Prosecutor’s Office due to no right to prosecution due to death of suspect.
In the past, in dozens of cases where the suspect was a minor, there were cases where the case was closed through the submission of a statement of remorse after confirmation from the parents;
There are cases where adults have been punished with fines, suspended indictment, etc.
We are currently continuing to respond to the remaining incidents.
We will continue to engage in online community; SNS, portal sites, etc.
Regarding malicious rumors, malicious posts/comments, damage to reputation, and defamatory posts about Taeyeon.
We will respond strongly without any leniency; We will do our best to protect our artists.
