(G)I-DLE’s agency, Cube Entertainment, has announced that it will take legal action against malicious content targeting the group.
On April 18, the label announced their intention to take legal action against the growing number of maliciously edited content. The statement reads,
“We would like to express our sincere gratitude to all the fans who consistently support and love our artist, (G)I-DLE.
It has come to our attention that maliciously edited videos and content targeting members of (G)I-DLE are being repeatedly disseminated online.
In addition, there has been a rampant spread of defamatory comments, including sexually offensive remarks, personal attacks, and groundless speculation.
In response, CUBE Entertainment would like to issue the following official statement in order to protect the rights and interests of our artists.
Regardless of whether the original footage was filmed in a public space, any act of malicious editing, distortion, and distribution, as well as the dissemination of false information or the posting of defamatory, sexually harassing, or insulting remarks, constitutes a clear criminal offense.
These actions not only warrant criminal penalties but also represent serious violations of the artists’ portrait rights, reputation, and personal rights.
We are currently securing evidence related to these illegal postings and are in the process of preparing all available civil and criminal legal actions through our legal representatives.
In particular, individuals responsible for the malicious distribution or circulation of such videos and defamatory comments will be held fully accountable to the fullest extent of the law, without any leniency or settlement.
We strongly urge all individuals involved in the production, dissemination, or consumption of such content to immediately remove all related posts and comments and to refrain from any further acts of infringement.
CUBE Entertainment remains firmly committed to protecting the rights of our artists and to fostering a healthy and respectful fan culture.
Thank you.
