“We confirmed the authenticity of the author and confirmed that the author had deleted the false postings. At the beginning, we strongly responded to the illegal acts against the actors affiliated, and we were carrying out all possible legal procedures. Considering that the author of the false post reflects on his own mistakes and conveys his intention to seek preemption several times, he has received a promise from the author that he will not commit any misconduct again.”

▲ The following is the full text of HB Entertainment’s official position

Hi. This is HB Entertainment.

We are giving the following official position regarding malicious comments and defamation of false facts towards actor Cho Byeong-gyu.

The author of the false post contacted us immediately after we requested a complaint and investigation seeking punishment for illegal acts against our actors this morning on February 17th. The author of false postings self-confessed, admitted that the postings they wrote were false, regretted their mistakes and misconduct, and appealed for preemption in the line of apologizing. Accordingly, we have confirmed the authenticity of the author and confirmed that the author has deleted the false postings.

Initially, the Company was conducting all possible legal proceedings by strongly responding to illegal acts against the actors affiliated with it, but considering that the author of false posts reflects on his or her own mistakes and conveys his intention to seek prejudice several times, the authors will not act again. I have been promised not to commit. However, if similar cases occur afterwards or other circumstances that aggravate damage to the affiliated actor, we will do our best to prevent the rights and interests of the affiliated actors from being violated by responding strongly.

In addition, we are pleased to inform you that in the future, we will seek criminal penalties by responding strongly to any act that harms or harms others in any way or not against all artists, including other actors belonging to our company.

Thank you.
