PLEDIS Entertainment has released a statement regarding SEVENTEEN’s privacy.
Previously in October, PLEDIS Entertainment released fan etiquette guidelines for safety and privacy, warning against violations. On December 8, the agency released another statement regarding the invasion of SEVENTEEN’s privacy.
Read the complete statement below:
Hello.
This is PLEDIS Entertainment.
We want to express our sincere gratitude for your support for SEVENTEEN.
Despite the release of previous notices, we still witness continuous unauthorised entry into artists’ private spaces other than venues officially announced as SEVENTEEN’s official activity (living spaces, hotels, hair and make-up shops etc.) and invasion of artists’ privacy within the airport’s security zones.
There have been severe cases of invasion of privacy, especially during the recent tour, such as waiting at the artists’ hotel, trying to break into the hotel room, coming excessively close to the artist and attempting to make conversation during their travel within the airport security zones including inside the aircraft. Such repeated actions inflict mental pain on the artists.
Not only those engaging in such behaviours be perpetually blacklisted from participating in all fan activities related to SEVENTEEN without a prior warning, but our company will also take necessary legal actions against them using the evidence we have collected through CCTV footage and monitoring initiatives.
We will continue to strive to create a healthy fan culture and protect the safety and rights of our artists. We promise we will take the most decisive measures possible against any actions violating their rights.
We ask for our fans’ cooperation.
Thank you.
The agency for SEVENTEEN has issued a statement regarding privacy invasion.
