EDEN Entertainment Issues Stern Warning Over Leaked Masami Photos
On December 7, EDEN Entertainment released an official statement addressing a controversy surrounding leaked personal photos of Masami, a member of ALL(H)OURS.
Earlier that day, an anonymous user posted several photos online showing Masami with a woman whose face was blurred out. The images, which appeared to be taken from Instagram Stories, were accompanied by captions implying a possible romantic relationship. The leak quickly gained traction on social media, sparking rumors and speculation among fans and netizens.
In response, EDEN Entertainment stated, “We are aware of the unauthorized distribution of personal photos involving Masami. We take this matter seriously and are currently investigating the source of the leak. The photos were circulated without consent, constituting a severe invasion of privacy.”
“Additionally, further attempts to hack our artist’s account have been identified, which constitutes a clear violation of the law. Infringement of personal privacy, rumor-mongering, defamation, personal attacks, and sexual harassment are all serious offenses. We have thoroughly gathered evidence and are taking all possible civil and criminal legal actions to address these malicious acts,” they added.
“We reiterate that EDEN Entertainment will not tolerate any malicious actions against our artists under any circumstances and will respond with the strongest measures possible,” it further added.
The agency emphasized their commitment to protecting their artists, warning, “We will take strong legal action against the individuals responsible for leaking and distributing the photos, as well as those spreading false information or malicious rumors. We urge fans to refrain from participating in or further spreading such content.”
EDEN Entertainment concluded by thanking fans for their support and understanding, asking for patience as they handle the situation. Fans have since rallied behind Masami, expressing outrage over the breach of privacy.
