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.
