Galaxy Corporation Issues Official Statement
For the first time in his 19-year career, K-pop icon G-Dragon has announced plans to take decisive legal action against malicious commenters and internet trolls. His agency, Galaxy Corporation, revealed on April 3, 2025, that baseless falsehoods and defamatory posts targeting the artist have been spreading widely across social media and online communities.
The Impact of Malicious Posts on G-Dragon
Reputation at Stake: The Consequences of False Information
Galaxy Corporation emphasized the seriousness of these actions, stating that they go beyond mere opinions and have severely damaged G-Dragon’s reputation. Additionally, misinformation has caused confusion among fans and the general public. The agency warned that acts such as spreading false information, defamation, insults, and invasion of privacy are clear violations of the law under the Information and Communications Network Act and the Criminal Code.
Legal Measures to Combat Online Harassment
No Tolerance Policy: Strong Legal Actions Announced
The agency declared its commitment to pursuing strong legal measures against perpetrators. Unlike previous instances, such as in 2023 when a grace period was offered for removing defamatory posts, Galaxy Corporation now promises zero leniency. They are actively monitoring online platforms and collecting evidence to ensure a thorough response.
Fans Play a Role in Legal Proceedings
Collaboration with Fans: Reporting Malicious Content
Galaxy Corporation urged fans to report malicious posts targeting G-Dragon via their official email address. These reports will serve as critical evidence in legal proceedings. The agency assured fans that it will carefully review all malicious content and proceed with necessary legal actions without compromise.
Protecting Artists’ Rights
Continuous Monitoring for a Safer Online Space
In its statement, Galaxy Corporation reiterated its dedication to protecting its artists’ rights and interests through rigorous monitoring and ongoing responses to online harassment. The agency made it clear that it will not entertain any agreements or leniency in cases involving false information or defamation.
This move marks a significant step in safeguarding artists from cyberbullying and ensuring accountability for harmful online behavior.
