Finally, the agency emphasized, "We prioritize the protection of the artist's rights and will continue to pursue strong legal action against the dissemination of false information, defamation, malicious slander, and the creation and spread of rumors, as well as actions impersonating fans or inciting conflicts within the fandom, without any leniency or settlement."
