The official announcement from LE SSERAFIM’s agency, Source Music, is as follows: Hi there, Source Music is this. We would like to start by humbly apologizing to all of the fans of LE SSERAFIM for whatever pain the recent happenings have caused. As we previously told you, due to the increasingly serious and careless nasty posts directed towards LE SSERAFIM, we will be stepping up our legal defense to safeguard the rights and interests of our artists. As such, we are giving fans an update on the vigorous legal actions that are now in progress as well as the progress that has followed, prior to the regular announcement that is planned for the first part of this year. We kindly beg for your patience as it has been challenging to provide quick updates due to the lengthy preparation required for gathering evidence and submitting complaints. We are diligently gathering proof of hostile posts and remarks on various platforms, including social media accounts from both abroad and domestically as well as online forums pertaining to our artists. We have enlisted the help of numerous legal experts, including recently hired domestic and foreign law companies, to collect evidence in this process through all available channels in addition to fan reports. Consequently, we have amassed an enormous volume of postings and comments, and we have reported violations of the Information and Communications Network Act, sexual harassment under the Sexual Violence Punishment Act, and defamation to investigating agencies. We are going to keep gathering proof. Our legal activities encompass all forms of malicious defamation, false information, personal attacks, insulting phrases, ridicule, and vulgar comments. SNS platforms as well as portal sites and communities including Naver, Nate Pann, Theqoo, DC Inside, Instiz, and Ilgan Best are among the posts and comments that have been the subject of complaints. Additionally, we have reported harmful messages and comments on overseas platforms and their channel operators to investigating agencies. Investigations into the authors of malicious postings and comments on communities have been going on for a while, with regard to some of the continuing cases. Since it was determined that the acts of creating offensive posts or remarks were true, several offenders have been criminally punished with fines of up to two million KRW. The entire legal procedure, from filing complaints and opening investigations to getting court orders and wrapping up cases, can take several months to more than a year. We are constantly working to stop illegal actions against our artists, even though it takes time. Without showing any mercy, we shall take a tough stance in any instance involving the infringement of our artists’ rights. We are eternally appreciative of the devotion and love shown by LE SSERAFIM’s supporters. We kindly request that you maintain your interest in and active reporting via the Source Music legal response account. We at Source Music will keep up our relentless efforts to defend the interests and rights of our artists. Regards
