[Dispatch=Yuha] Broadcaster Lee Su-ji has drawn her sword against malicious commenters.
CP Entertainment stated on the 8th, "Recently, posts targeting Lee Su-ji containing personal attacks, false information, and defamation have been continuously spreading across online communities and SNS."
A company official said, "This is a serious matter that infringes upon the artist's honor and rights," adding, "We are carefully reviewing all related matters and responding thoroughly."
The company will proceed with legal action against the creators of malicious posts. The agency emphasized, "We will take all necessary civil and criminal measures and respond strictly with a zero-tolerance policy without leniency or settlement."
In July, Lee Su-ji posted a video on her YouTube channel 'Hot Issue Ji' satirizing the grievances of civil servants. A scene was depicted in which she dissuaded a citizen shouting "re-election," saying "You shouldn't do that here."
This prompted criticism that she had ridiculed citizens demanding a re-election related to the ballot shortage incident from the June 3 local elections. The production team explained there was no political intention and revised the scene in question.
Lee Su-ji apologized, saying, "Separate from my intent to create laughter, I take seriously that I caused hurt and inconvenience to someone," and added, "I will deeply reflect on myself and become a comedian who delivers healthy laughter."
