[Asia Economy Intern Reporter Min Jun-young] MBC announcer Lim Hyun-joo announced that she will take legal action against netizens who write malicious comments about her.

On the 3rd, announcer Lim Hyun-joo said through her YouTube channel, "I have closed the comment sections on some videos."

She said, "I don't like the precious comments left by Puppy-nim (subscribers) being covered by comments that vent distorted and suppressed emotions," adding, "Even if you leave comments, I am too busy to read each one."

She continued, "If you still want to leave a comment, leave it confidently here," and added, "After consulting with a lawyer, I found that it is not difficult to punish multiple offenders with just one process."

She warned, "Crimes such as spreading false information, defamation, and so on. I will neatly capture and submit them as evidence."

Previously, announcer Lim Hyun-joo was the first female announcer on domestic terrestrial broadcasting to wear glasses while delivering the news, and she also appeared live on air without wearing underwear, so-called 'no bra.'

At the time, the no bra challenge was a campaign with the purpose of having women go braless and men wear bras to switch roles and understand each other's situations.

This was meant to discourage tacitly imposed prejudices on women, but some netizens criticized it as an "act to gain attention," causing controversy.
