In a new development reflecting a clear shift in the strategy of Korean entertainment companies, HYBE has announced expanded legal actions aimed at protecting its artists—led by members of BTS—from increasing waves of digital abuse and violations 🌐⚠️
🔍 The latest statement was not just a routine update, but a direct message with a firm tone: “No form of infringement will be tolerated.”
🛡️ Crimes No Longer Forgivable 
The company confirmed that what happens online is no longer مجرد “opinions,” but fully-fledged crimes, including:
- Spreading malicious rumors for defamation ❌
- Abusive comments that harm personal dignity 💬
- Repeated cyber harassment affecting mental well-being 🚫
- Leaking private information or illegal tracking 🔐
- Impersonation and misuse of artists’ identities ⚠️
📌 Notably, these acts are now legally classified as criminal offenses subject to punishment.
⚖️ Cross-Border Legal Actions
BIGHIT MUSIC has moved beyond warnings into real enforcement:
- Filing new batches of criminal complaints 🧾
- Pursuing suspects both inside and outside Korea 🌍
- Issuing actual rulings including fines and penalties 💰
- Expanding investigations to include anonymous accounts
📌 This indicates that protection is no longer local, but truly global.
🚫 “Zero Tolerance” Policy 
One of the most striking points in the statement is the strict policy:
- No settlements 🤚

Each case is handled individually to ensure maximum deterrence.
🌐 Advanced Digital Monitoring
The company relies on advanced systems to detect harmful content:

📌 Technology has become a key weapon in this battle.
👥 Individual Protection for Each Member
The statement emphasized that protection applies to every member individually:
📌 This reflects awareness that targeting is often individual rather than collective.
📢 The Role of Fans Is No Longer Secondary
The company called on ARMY fans to:
- Report any abusive content 🚨

📌 Fan reports have become a crucial element in legal cases.
