BTS’ label vows legal action against perpetrators of planned digital attack
BIGHIT MUSIC, the agency representing global K-pop sensation BTS, has issued a public statement announcing legal action against perpetrators involved in a planned digital attack aimed at the group. In the statement released on May 2, the company vehemently denied allegations of hoarding, concept plagiarism, and any affiliations with religious cults, labeling such claims as entirely false.
The agency revealed that the relentless spread of misinformation prompted them to engage a separate law firm to address the matter firmly. In a proactive move to protect BTS members' rights, BIGHIT MUSIC identified and compiled various posts containing false rumors and slanderous information. These posts, systematically uploaded and later deleted by someone, have prompted the agency to file an initial round of criminal complaints with law enforcement agencies on May 2.
BIGHIT MUSIC also reiterated its zero-tolerance policy towards individuals attempting to tarnish the reputation of their artists through the dissemination of malicious falsehoods. They have pledged to pursue legal action without leniency or settlements, ensuring that offenders are appropriately punished.
The agency further expressed its regret over the distress caused to BTS fans by the circulation of baseless allegations and assured them of its unwavering commitment to protecting the artists' rights.

Moreover, South Korean blogs gained traction as they circulated theories and evidence suggesting connections between the entertainment company, its artists, notably BTS, and the organization.
Responding swiftly on the day itself, HYBE announced the establishment of an additional law firm to confront the escalating defamation and slander against BTS. They stressed the conspired nature of recent malicious slanders, rumors, dissemination of false information, and indiscriminate insults, underscoring the severe damage inflicted upon the artist's reputation. HYBE reiterated its commitment to stern action against such actions, with the new law firm supplementing ongoing legal proceedings.
