On November 19, the agency made a posting through the group's official fan cafe, stating that they have requested to take legal action against the malicious netizens who have severely violated artists' rights.

They also revealed that from June 15 through the end of October, they received approximately 41,000 e-mails, and within them, found 70,000 cases of malicious slander, comments, personal attacks, and defamation. Netizens who have circulated false information by impersonating Big Hit employees have also been reported.

The agency added that moving forward, they plan to work with a law firm to respond quickly and firmly to the actions of malicious netizens. 

"We will take full legal action against the original writers of this slander and those who have spread it without any settlements or special agreements," they concluded.
