We are issuing a strict warning and taking all legal action against acts that harm A Pink's image with false information.

1. Since debut, A Pink members have issued warnings about hate comments found on SNS and portal sites that harm their image. However, the actions continued, and the severity has gone past the level where it could be put off as mere interest for A Pink. The targets have changed from just the members to their families so they decided to stop just sitting idly by.

2. Recently, A Pink members' SNS have been continuously attacked by very shocking sexual comments that are hard to endure as women. This is not just trouble for A Pink as celebrities, but shamefacing women in general, and is a serious social problem. As stated before, the hate comments to A Pink have passed the acceptable limit, and the severity and spread of the situation is not small. We will be finding those who have been writing hate comments about A Pink for a long period and make sure this does not happen again.

3. Hate comments on SNS and portal sites that defame character have been a serious problem not just for celebrities, athletes, and other famous figures, but for ordinary people as well. A Pink had to endure these actions just because they were celebrities. They will be taking strong legal action against these malicous commenters who have committed crime without being aware of their actions.
