Hello. This is BELIFT LAB. We deal with malicious posts such as defamation, insults, sexual harassment, false facts, and malicious slander against "ILLIT".
We have taken legal action against ILLIT, and would like to update you on the progress of this matter. Despite being a new artist who debuted only three months ago, ILLIT has received a lot of malicious comments and slander.
The way the video was created is extremely malicious and excessive, making the situation extremely serious. In order to protect our new artists, we have decided that strong legal action is urgently needed.
Even before the announcement of the reporting method, since the debut, malicious posts and comments have been collected from all channels, both domestic and international, and a complaint has been filed with the investigative agency.
The targets of this lawsuit are domestic communities (NAVER, NATE, theqoo, DC Inside, instiz, Nikkan Best, etc.), music sites (MelO
n, BugsMusic, GENIE MUSIC, etc.), overseas SNS channels (X, Instagram, YouTube, etc.)
, were all included. After a malicious post was created, in order to avoid leaving any evidence, even if it was deleted, the post was verified in real time and all of it was collected.
As a result, hundreds of defendants have been charged with the crimes and are currently under investigation by the police.
We will continue to accept complaints in a timely manner. In order to protect the rights of our artists, we will continue to take measures against malicious acts based on information provided by fans and evidence collected through our own monitoring.
We will take strict action against those who committed the crimes and will hold them accountable until the end, no matter how long it takes. We want to make it clear that there will be no leniency or compromise under any circumstances.
In our legal response, the interest and information of our fans will be of great help.
