A.C.E.’s Agency Threatens Legal Action Against Fake Social Media Account Impersonating Jun
BEAT Interactive shared the statement regarding the fake social media account.
“Recently, we have been receiving reports regarding impersonating the accounts of Jun, a member of A.C.E.,” it reads.
“In response, we will report this as an abusive account and will take strong legal action against the users for impersonating the artist’s account if the deletion is not processed as soon as possible,” the statement continued.
The company also revealed that the impersonation account is “@hyun_jin121” and included a screenshot of the profile. Additionally, they urged CHOICEs to be vigilant and report any accounts impersonating the A.C.E. members.
“If you find any impersonation accounts, please report them to us via (info@beatkor.com),” the statement concluded.
Jun has not yet addressed the issue personally as he is currently serving in the military. Park Junhee enlisted for mandatory military service on February 7, 2022. He is currently serving as an active-duty soldier and will be discharged in August this year.
Jun is not the only member of A.C.E. who is currently serving in the military. The other four members of the idol group enlisted for mandatory military service between 2021 and 2022.
Donghun, Jun, Wow, Kim Byeongkwan and Chan will be discharged between late 2023 to early 2024. A.C.E. is expected to make a full group comeback once the final member Kang Yu Chan is discharged next year. However, BEAT Interactive has not yet released an official announcement about the comeback.
For now, the aforementioned Instagram account is the only one pretending to be A.C.E.’s Jun. Stay tuned for more updates on this story.
