The group TWICE's side has warned of strong legal action against stalking behavior.
JYP Entertainment, TWICE's agency, stated on the official website on the 26th that "a specific individual has been indiscriminately sending letters stating that they are continuously lingering around the workplace and residence of the artist, including inappropriate content and photos derived from delusions targeting a TWICE member."
The agency noted, "This is causing severe mental harm and anxiety not only to the artist but also to those around the artist. Therefore, we have taken measures to enhance security for the artist's safety and are continuously monitoring the situation," adding, "The repeated sending of letters containing unsettling and unpleasant content against the artist's will, and lingering around the artist's living area is a clear 'stalking act,' and such behavior can be strictly punished under the relevant laws."
They further emphasized, "We again sternly inform that such behavior is clearly contrary to the artist's will," and stated, "Regarding this, if the specific individual does not immediately stop the 'stalking act' as mentioned above, we will take all possible legal actions, without any leniency or settlement, at the highest level of severity expediently."
Finally, they expressed gratitude to the fans who always cherish and support TWICE, saying, "We will do our utmost to protect our artists."
Meanwhile, TWICE will appear as a special guest at the concert of the British band Coldplay, 'Coldplay [Music Of The Spheres World Tour],' which will be held in Goyang City at Goyang Comprehensive Gymnasium in April.
Below is the full statement from the agency.
Hello, this is JYP Entertainment.
Recently, a specific individual has been indiscriminately sending letters stating that they are continuously lingering around the workplace and residence of the artist, including inappropriate content and photos derived from delusions targeting a TWICE member. This is causing severe mental harm and anxiety not only to the artist but also to those around the artist. Therefore, we have taken measures to enhance security for the artist's safety and are continuously monitoring the situation.
According to the law on penalties for stalking crimes, actions such as waiting or watching near the place where the other party lives regularly against their will, or using mail or phone to send objects, writings, pictures, or videos, all fall under 'stalking acts.' Therefore, the repeated sending of letters containing unsettling and unpleasant content against the artist's will, and lingering around the artist's living area is a clear 'stalking act,' and such behavior can be strictly punished under the relevant laws.
We sternly inform that such behavior is clearly contrary to the artist's will.
Regarding this, if the specific individual does not immediately stop the 'stalking act' as mentioned above, we will take all possible legal actions, without any leniency or settlement, at the highest level of severity expediently.
We express our gratitude to the fans who always cherish and support TWICE, saying, "We will do our utmost to protect our artists."
