Acts that threaten the safety of the artists and invade their privacy have escalated to a serious level. To address these issues, we are taking legal action and would like to provide an update on the current situation.

Addressing Privacy Invasion and Illegal Stalking

Recent incidents of illegal stalking have involved individuals orchestrating delivery services or chauffeurs to invade the artists’ residences, capture photographs, and sell these images. In response, we have initiated criminal proceedings based on evidence such as CCTV footage.

Additionally, illegal activities have increased, such as using purchased information to travel on the same flights as the artists and continuously filming them in private areas. These actions inflict serious harm and clearly denote stalking against the artists’ will.

We are diligently gathering evidence to identify the stalkers. With tips and evidence provided by fans, we are pursuing reports and legal actions and will fully cooperate with law enforcement to ensure a thorough investigation.

Combating the Spread of False Information

We have detected coordinated efforts within online chat rooms aimed at disseminating rumors about the artists or selling related information in an attempt to intimidate them. We are actively collecting evidence of these illegal activities and are poised to take robust legal actions.

The following illegal activities are under thorough investigation:

Organization of false rumors and attacks against the artists.

Incursions into artists’ privacy through stalking.

Unlawfully acquiring and distributing the artists’ personal data and private videos.

Repeatedly calling and sending inappropriate messages to the artists.

Other actions infringing upon the artists’ privacy.

Your reports have been invaluable. If you possess any information regarding these individuals, please report it through the HYBE Artist Rights Violation Reporting website.

Guidelines for Airport Safety and Order

Due to large gatherings at airports during international travel, safety risks are heightened for both the artists and the fans, as well as other passengers. We urge fans to adhere to the following guidelines to ensure safety and order:

Avoid actions that interfere with the artists’ movement at the airport.

Refrain from excessive physical contact with the artists.

Avoid taking close-up photos or videos in restricted areas where filming is not permitted. Additionally, selling and purchasing flight information is illegal. Recently, an airline employee was apprehended for selling this information, highlighting the seriousness of the issue. We ask fans not to partake in or condone the sale of the artists’ personal data.

Individuals who engage in stalking behaviors will be barred from attending artist-related events. We have reported numerous stalking incidents, and police investigations are ongoing. We appreciate your understanding, as we cannot provide real-time updates on the investigations to ensure their successful progress.

We will persist in our efforts to safeguard the artists. Thank you.
