[Asia Economy Intern Reporter Kim Seul-gi] Actor Go Jun-hee's side announced that they have prosecuted malicious commenters who spread harmful rumors.


On the 20th, Go Jun-hee's agency Mountain Movement stated, "Go Jun-hee, who has been fighting a war against malicious commenters, has prosecuted all but 2 of the total 32 commenters (2 are currently not prosecuted due to unknown whereabouts)."


Mountain Movement said, "We have received countless apologies admitting that a meaningless word directed at a celebrity was a mistake," adding, "The reality now is that we have encountered numerous cases where that meaningless word goes beyond character assassination and ruins a person's life. Although malicious comments are a terrifying crime that mercilessly destroys people no matter what they are, the punishments have been mild, so many celebrities have been reluctant to file lawsuits."


They continued, "The process of filing a lawsuit is so painful that it can cause trauma to the plaintiff," explaining, "There is hardly a plaintiff who does not cry while reading the lawsuit details one by one."


They added, "Plaintiffs have to go through such a ruthless investigation process to file a lawsuit. However, Go Jun-hee maintained a strong stance by continuously communicating and cooperating with her attorney, and for malicious commenters who persistently refused to appear, arrest warrants were even issued and arrests made, leading to this outcome."



Previously, in December last year, Go Jun-hee stated, "Go Jun-hee has suffered greatly due to rumors generated from speculation related to incidents, and sensational headlines derived from these malicious comments," and "Our agency will take strict legal action without leniency against the indiscriminate malicious comments directed at our actor."
