SM Entertainment has announced that they have partnered with a law firm specifically to conduct investigations and challenge people who are harming their artists by invading their privacy, engaging in theft, leaking personal information, and circulated malicious rumors, including those of serious defamation.

They want to take a step further to protect their artists (finally), such as those like Choi Siwon who has been seriously harmed (Most specifically with the circulation of malicious rumors and lies, reported even by the press). SM is intending to conduct criminal and civil legal actions with their legal teams. If you have noticed any misconduct (for Siwon, there are so many naver articles that printed lies and/or twisted the truth) related to SM artists like Choi Siwon, please send an email to [email protected] with the following information

In your subject heading of your email: The artist's name (In this case, Choi Siwon)

If you're a fan of Siwon, please browse through naver/look at source material of articles on Soompi/AKP/Netizenbuzz/Koreaboo (Don't link these articles, but the articles these sites are translating, usually linked to a post on naver) and send an email to SM Entertainmaint.

Let's do the most we can to protect Siwon as fans, protect Sungmin, protect Kangin and protect our idols.
