KISS OF LIFE - JULIE
JULIE from KISS OF LIFE is at the center of a controversy regarding the alleged leak of personal CCTV videos, and her agency has decided to respond firmly against unfounded rumors and malicious comments.
On the 29th, S2 Entertainment stated:
“We have verified the illegally shared and distributed videos online and have already expressed our position, but baseless speculation about our artists continues to spread.”
The agency added:
“We are fully aware that unverified rumors and reckless assumptions seriously harm the honor and integrity of our artists. The situation is now unacceptable. We are currently collecting and analyzing all data with our legal team and preparing legal actions against the spread of false information, malicious posts, and any violation of personality rights. We will respond firmly, with no compromise or leniency.”
S2 Entertainment also emphasized:
“The leak and distribution of videos through illegal means, as well as the redistribution or alteration of these videos (secondary victimization), may result in legal penalties.”
The agency clarified that neither the origin of the videos, their distribution, nor their location has been officially confirmed.
Previously, on the Chinese social network Weibo, a video showing a man and a woman appearing to be in a bar was shared. The source of the leak remains unknown, but some netizens speculated that it involved Kangmin from VERIVERY and JULIE.
In response, Jellyfish Entertainment, Kangmin’s agency, denied the claims: “This is false and malicious information that seriously damages the artist’s reputation.“
For her part, JULIE’s team stated:
“This concerns the artist’s private life, and we cannot confirm any details.”
Faced with the growing controversy, the agency reaffirmed its stance and announced a strong legal response.
Below is the translated official statement from S2 Entertainment:
“Hello,
This is S2 Entertainment.
We have confirmed the existence of videos that were illegally leaked and distributed online. Although we have already expressed our position on this matter, unfounded speculation regarding our artist continues to spread, and we feel it is necessary to clearly communicate our stance.
We fully recognize that these unverified rumors and reckless assumptions severely damage our artist’s reputation and dignity, reaching a level that can no longer be ignored.
We are currently collecting and analyzing all relevant documents with our legal team, and we are preparing legal actions against the distribution of false information, the creation and spread of malicious posts, and any violation of personality rights. All evidence gathered in this process will be used according to legal procedures, and we will act firmly without any out-of-court settlement or leniency.
We emphasize that not only the illegal leak and distribution of these videos, but also any secondary harm or manipulation of content may result in legal penalties.
S2 Entertainment prioritizes protecting our artists and fans and will take all necessary measures to prevent further harm caused by the uncontrolled spread of rumors. We remind that such acts can have legal consequences.
We will continue to monitor and take immediate legal action against the dissemination of false information and any malicious acts, and we request your cooperation in reporting such incidents.
We will fully defend the legitimate rights and honor of our artist.
