One K-pop star has had enough of the endless hate online. This famous artist, known for her sweet vocals and huge influence in the K-pop world, is taking legal action against the wave of malicious comments and rumors that have been targeting her.

On December 2, her agency, SM Entertainment, posted an official statement on her behalf, addressing the issue.

"We are providing an update on the legal actions regarding malicious posts and comments related to our artist, including defamation, insults, and sexual harassment", the agency shared.

They revealed that through fan reports and their own monitoring, they’ve gathered thousands of pieces of evidence from various online communities.

As a result, they have already filed numerous complaints to the authorities regarding charges like defamation and insult.

It was later confirmed that the artist in question is none other than Girls' Generation's Taeyeon. SM Entertainment explained that investigations are currently underway for several suspects, with a few already identified.

Some cases have resulted in probation or closed investigations due to the death of the suspect. For minors involved, the agency noted that cases were resolved through reflection letters, after discussions with the parents.

But they also made it clear that when adults are involved, charges often result in fines or suspended prosecution.

SM promised to continue fighting against harmful online comments, making it clear they will take "no mercy" in protecting Taeyeon from such attacks.

This comes shortly after Taeyeon’s successful release of her sixth mini-album, Letter to Myself, on November 18.

Actress Kang Ye Won got emotional as she opened up about why she took a break from broadcasting and why she’s finally giving love a chance.

On the March 3 episode of tvN STORY’s Can I Love Now?, Kang Ye Won made her debut as a new participant looking for romance.

During the broadcast, she revealed that negative online comments had deeply affected her. "I used to cry all the time reading comments. I get hurt easily. What might be a small wound for others feels like a huge blow to me," she shared, expressing the stress she faced from malicious remarks.

She also admitted that at one point, she wanted to leave everything behind. "I kept thinking, ‘How long do I have to keep working this hard?’ and it became overwhelming."

She added, "At one point, I thought, ‘I should just quit everything and move to the countryside,’ and that idea actually gave me peace," she confessed.

When it came to dating, Kang Ye Won shared that she had always been content watching others fall in love.

"It never worked out for me. I wasn’t the type to ask for introductions either. I just found comfort in living as an observer. Maybe it’s my fate. I’m fearful, and I lack courage. If I feel like someone might hurt me, I block them out from the start," she admitted.

However, the actress revealed that she ultimately joined Can I Love Now? for her father. "My dad was born in 1943. He had me late in life, and his health isn’t great."

She added, "I realized that if I continue living alone like this, I won’t be able to give my parents any hope until the moment they pass away," she said with tears in her eyes. "My perspective on life has changed. I no longer think just about myself, but about my parents."

Kang Ye Won’s heartfelt confession touched many viewers, leaving fans rooting for her to find happiness.
