On June 23, truck protests organized by fans of Girls' Generation's Taeyeon outside the SM Entertainment building in Seongsu-dong continued for the second day, with a greater number of trucks and with sound protests added.
In response to the protest trucks projecting loud noises outside, it's said that SM Entertainment filed a complaint with the police, and police cars arrived multiple times during the day. Complying with police officers asking questions, the truck management company representing Taeyeon's fans assured that the protests were not for political reasons, and confirmed that the protests would resume on a regular schedule - weekdays from 9 AM until 5 PM - until SM Entertainment issues a direct apology for mismanagement.
After being informed that organized, large-scale protests need to be registered and approved with the Seoul District Police, Taeyeon's fans proceeded to have the police legally approve of their right to assemble for organized protest. The request was approved on June 23, which means that truck protests outside of the SM Entertainment building hosted by Taeyeon's fans are now legally recognized.
Meanwhile, after the first day of protests on June 22 KST, SM Entertainment further infuriated fans of Taeyeon by attempting to "cover up" the protests with separate news of malicious commenters being punished under its new KWANGYA 119 system. Taeyeon herself also spoke up on Bubble and admitted that she was aware of the protests being carried out by her fans, and recognized that fans had valid reasons for being upset.
So they called the police on the trucks demanding good treatment for an artist, but were perfectly fine letting the trucks defaming and insulting their artists park right infront of their door...oh i truly hope this compan burns
