The Korean Internet also has various opinions. Some of them are malicious comments. World-class pop star “BTS” was also not free from such malicious comments.
Big Hit Music, the agency of the group BTS (BTS), has filed an additional complaint against malicious comments. they said it responded strongly legally.
Big Hit said, “We are strongly legally responding to acts that attack the artist’s personality without evidence and promote malicious rumors,” adding, “We are taking all possible civil and criminal measures against YouTube and DC Inside accounts that repeat these actions.”
BTS is famous for suffering from many malicious comments from the beginning. In fact, he did not gain much popularity in Korea, so he worked hard on overseas activities.
BTS started its activities around the same time as EXO. Compared to EXO’s huge fan base, the size of BTS fan base was too small. (Of course, ARMY is much bigger now)
Big Hit Music is claiming additional civil damages against those who have been convicted of criminal charges. Recently, it filed damages against those who received criminal fines and received a ruling to compensate 9 million won (about 7600 dollars) for illegal activities.
BTS is gaining popularity worldwide, but there are still people posting malicious comments in Korea. In addition to BTS, many K-pop stars are suffering from malicious comments. It can be said to be a dark side of the Internet era.
