(G)I-DLE Faces Online Harassment: Cube Responds with Legal Measures
The rise of manipulated videos targeting (G)I-DLE has sparked serious concern in the K-pop community. Clips from public events were altered and circulated to create misleading and sexually inappropriate narratives. These acts have deeply affected the dignity and public image of the group’s five members.
Cube Entertainment is treating the matter with utmost urgency. Their legal team is working on identifying the individuals responsible for producing and sharing such content. The agency confirmed that no leniency will be extended and intends to set a legal precedent through this case.
The timing of the harassment is particularly troubling, as (G)I-DLE had recently renewed their contract with Cube Entertainment in December 2024. Each member is engaging in individual projects and preparing for a group comeback in May 2025. This disruption is not only malicious but also potentially damaging to their careers.
Fans, known as Neverland, have taken to social media platforms to voice their support and demand accountability. The incident has sparked broader conversations around online safety, defamation laws, and the protection of public figures in the digital age.
This situation underscores the urgent need for stronger online protections and legal enforcement to combat harassment in the digital space. This is especially true for public figures like (G)I-DLE.
“We will respond with no leniency and no settlements in order to protect our artists.” – Cube Entertainment
