“Hi, I’m KQ Entertainment.
We inform you that yesterday (August 16), KQ Entertainment filed a lawsuit against a YouTuber who posted malicious content about our artist ATEEZ for violating the laws on the use of the communication network and protection of information, including slander, defamation, commercial interference and copyright infringement. All documents related to this case have been submitted as evidence.
This YouTuber not only posted exaggerated content as if based on factual information, but also personally benefited from this malicious activity.
In particular, this YouTube channel belittled fans’ love and support for ATEEZ, and thus KQ Entertainment had no choice but to respond with strict legal action“.
