We have reorganized the Protect mail account, which is a channel for reporting copyright infringement, into the integrated reporting site "HYBE Artist Rights Infringement Report."
We ask that you proactively report any infringement of artists' rights to the above integrated reporting site, rather than filing a report on the official account. We are always grateful for the love and dedication of our fans towards BTS.
Big Hit Music will continue to make efforts to protect the rights of our artists. Thank you.
