Singer BoA ​​has taken a full-fledged hard-line response against malicious commenters.

SM Entertainment, the agency, said on the 11th, “Currently, the spread of false facts, malicious personal attacks, insults, and slander against artists are continuously occurring, mainly on various SNS, video sharing platforms, and online communities.”

SM confirmed that they are cooperating with Sejong Law Firm (Limited), which is in charge of legal response to infringement of their artists’ rights, and additionally with external legal advisory agencies, to file large-scale lawsuits both domestically and internationally.

SM said, “We have already collected sufficient data on a number of posts, and are in the process of investigating and filing complaints for specific cases such as Cyber ​​Rekka. “We also plan to hold them fully accountable through continued information collection,” he added.

The reason SM is taking a stronger stance is because BoA has been suffering from extreme malicious comments recently.

On the 6th, BoA wrote on her social media, “Now that my contract is over, I can retire, right?” It is an indirect expression of the feelings of having been plagued by indiscriminate malicious comments recently. BoA said in Channel A’s ‘Open Interview’ on the 30th of last month, “I hope you know that celebrities are also people. It seems that many people think of celebrities as targets to vent their anger on. Malicious comments are bad. He also complained, “Hate comments are always bad.”

SM also said, “The artist is going through a very difficult time, suffering great mental pain. “We plan to ensure that the relevant actors are legally punished without leniency or agreement, and even at this moment, any act of posting malicious posts may be subject to punishment,” he warned again.

“Once again, we make it clear that such acts are criminal acts that harm an individual’s honor and dignity, and we strictly warn that such actors may be severely punished in accordance with relevant laws. “We earnestly ask you to stop the indiscriminate attacks on artists,” he emphasized.

BoA, who celebrates her 24th debut anniversary this year, is known as the ‘Star of Asia’ and is the protagonist who pioneered the Korean Wave. Meanwhile, she has been suffering from unreasonable malicious comments. On the 26th of last month, her new song ‘Really, Isn’t There?’ was released. She also performed well in the tvN drama ‘Marry My Husband’. He has steadily expanded the scope of his activities, including serving as a producer for his agency SM Entertainment’s new group ‘NCT Wish’.
