Red Velvet's wedding song guaranteed by Huh Gak? SM·OS relationship at all, strong response to the use of unauthorized portraits



Popular singers were damaged by infringement of portrait rights.

On the 12th, it was revealed that company A has been advertising using portrait rights as if it is related to popular singers such as Red Velvet, Sung Si-kyung, Heo Gak, and Yeongtak.

Company A advertised on its website that `I will send you a real list of possible songs and events guaranteed by singer Huh Gak' and \```````. In addition, Company A used Red Velvet's profile photos and names at the top of the celebrity wedding category without permission, making them look as if they were used as wedding singers.




However, this turned out to be untrue.

Red Velvet's agency SM Entertainment "is irrelevant to the company. There is no prior consultation or permission. As soon as we confirmed the use of the unauthorized portrait, we requested it to be deleted, and we will respond strongly if the same case is repeated." Huh Gak's agency, OS Entertainment, also explained, `It is true that we were friends with Huh Gak for a long time, but we haven't contacted him often for a few years, and now we have nothing to do with the company in question.'

The company says it is unfair. "I checked celebrities who went up wrong during the homepage renewal process a few weeks ago, and now I've taken all the pictures down."




However, on the company's website, names such as Mad Clown Apink and Sung Si-kyung, a songwriter for Youngtak, are listed. However, most singers expressed their embarrassment, saying they had never heard of it.

If a photo or name is used for business purposes without the consent of a celebrity, it is a violation of portrait rights and name rights, and civil damages can be taken.
