Hello.
It's Big Hit Music.
Thank you very much for your warm support for BTS.
To protect the rights and interests of our artist BTS and to ensure that our BTS can operate stably, we continue to respond steadily and firmly to illegal activities such as malicious slander, dissemination of false information, sexual harassment, and insults online.
In this quarter, through valuable reports from fans, we collected evidence by monitoring domestic communities (Naver, Daum, Nate, Dirku, BTS within DC Inside, male celebrity galleries, Insties, Daily Best, Epem Korea, Women's Generation, Jilbang, Soul Dresser, etc.), music sites (Melon, Bugs Music, Genie Music, etc.), overseas SNS channels (X, Instagram, YouTube, etc.).
Meanwhile, punishment results are coming out sequentially, with fines confirmed for filing a complaint in the third quarter of 2024. We will respond responsibly to other complaints until the end so that good results can come out.
A police investigation is also underway into the recent attempt to break into the BTS member's home. We are actively cooperating with the police's investigation so that they can receive reasonable criminal punishment, such as collecting and submitting evidence based on CCTV and others for actions committed by intruders.
In addition, we are immediately filing a police report on stalking members of the BTS so that they can be arrested as current offenders, and in addition, we are also applying for a ban on access. We are strongly responding to any acts that threaten the privacy and safety of artists without any preferential treatment.
We are responding more thoroughly to ensure that BTS, who recently returned to their fans after faithfully completing their duty of defense, are not harmed by malicious rumors or insulting expressions.
Unfounded rumors, defamation, sexual harassment, and invasion of privacy are clearly illegal. We will respond to this without any compromise, and your report will be a great help in the process.
If you find cases of suspected infringement of BTS rights, such as malicious posts and IP infringement, please access the Hive Artist Rights Infringement Report Site and actively report them. To help your fans' reports more effectively lead to legal action, we recommend full screen capture or full screen print file format (PDF) rather than mobile screen, especially capturing and sending information such as URLs, publishers, contents of posts, and captured dates will greatly help proceed with the legal process.
We always thank our fans for their interest and support for BTS, and Big Hit Music will continue to do its best to protect the rights and interests of BTS.
Thank you.
Big Hit Music Dream
