SOURCE MUSIC has taken a decisive stance against the propagation of malicious posts and false allegations targeting LE SSERAFIM, as declared in an official statement released on April 26. The agency asserts its commitment to safeguarding the integrity and reputation of its artists by initiating strong legal action against those responsible for spreading harmful content.

LE SSERAFIM To Take Strong Legal Action Against Malicious Posts

On April 26, SOURCE MUSIC issued a statement announcing that they are taking strong legal action against malicious posts about LE SSERAFIM.

“The false allegations suggesting that LE SSERAFIM has caused harm to other artists and the presentation of groundless information as established facts to influence public opinion constitute clear instances of spreading false information. Posts containing slander and insults, defamation of the artist’s character, and instances of sexual harassment are all subject to legal action,” it read.

The catalyst for this firm response stems from the controversy surrounding LE SSERAFIM’s performance at Coachella 2024, which sparked intense debate within the K-Pop community regarding the standards of live performances in the industry. Amid heightened scrutiny following their appearance at the prestigious music festival, a viral video circulating online showcased the group’s vocals without backing tracks, further amplifying criticism and scrutiny of their performance.

SOURCE MUSIC’s proactive approach in defending LE SSERAFIM is not unprecedented. Just last month, the agency issued an official statement addressing a barrage of malicious posts targeting the group’s members.

By announcing their intent to pursue legal action, SOURCE MUSIC sends a resounding message that malicious behavior and online harassment will not be tolerated. As fans await updates on the outcome of the legal proceedings, it is imperative for all individuals to uphold principles of respect and empathy in their online interactions. Participation in or propagation of harmful rumors and gossip not only undermines the integrity of artists but also fosters a toxic online environment detrimental to the entire community.
