STAYC (Sumin, Sieun, Isa, Seeun, Yoon, J) has made it clear they will not tolerate the creation of harmful deepfake content.

On September 6, the group's agency, High Up Entertainment, released a firm statement: "We will take strong legal action without leniency against those producing deepfake content targeting STAYC."

This follows a rise in deepfake-related sexual crimes, where women's images are manipulated into obscene material using AI technology.

High Up Entertainment emphasized their zero-tolerance policy, stating they will pursue strict legal measures against anyone involved in the creation or spread of these malicious and illegal videos.

The agency reaffirmed their commitment to safeguarding STAYC’s dignity and rights, vowing to take rigorous action against any activities that damage the group's reputation.

In light of these issues, High Up Entertainment assured fans they are actively monitoring the situation and will continue to do so to prevent further harm.

Meanwhile, STAYC is gearing up for a comeback in October, and fans can expect a powerful return from the rising group.

Former AOA member Kwon Min Ah—who opened up in the past about being bullied—has once again shared a deep and emotional message on social media, leaving fans feeling concerned and sending love.

On April 23, Min Ah took to her Instagram to write:
“I don’t know if I’ve become completely twisted, or if I’m just scared. Maybe I’m afraid the same thing will happen again. Everything feels scary. And I want to say something sharp to myself too—get it together.”

Along with the message, she posted a selfie where she wore a red knit top, had her hair half-up, and showed a soft pout with a calm expression. Though her outfit and style looked casual, the mood of her words felt heavy.

Fans aren’t sure if Min Ah was directing the message toward someone else or simply speaking to herself. The final line, “get it together,” sounds like a tough love reminder to herself—but also makes many wonder what she’s been going through recently.

People quickly filled the comment section with supportive messages, telling her to stay strong and reminding her she’s not alone.

Min Ah debuted with AOA in 2012 and left the group in 2019. In 2020, she made headlines when she revealed that she had been bullied during her time in the group. The confession caused a huge reaction in the K-pop world, leading to conversations about idols’ mental health and group dynamics.

Recently, she surprised fans when it was revealed she began working as a manager at a dermatology clinic, showing a new side of her life outside of the entertainment spotlight.

Fans continue to cheer her on, hoping she finds peace and happiness in whatever path she chooses next.
