K-Pop star IU faces death threats

On October 6th,

EDAM Entertainment

, the label representing the renowned Korean singer IU, has publicly addressed a legal action against certain netizens involved in defamatory and malicious activities targeting the artist. The company has taken legal steps against these individuals, accusing them of tarnishing

IU

's reputation and infringing upon her rights through harmful claims.

Of particular concern in their statement is the revelation that the

police

have recently been called to both the

Kakao Entertainment

office and IU's residence due to alarming

death threats

and other harmful messages directed towards the singer. This troubling development underscores the severity of the situation. Lately, IU has been the target of death threats. She is facing this dire situation in the midst of a defamation battle against netizens who have levelled serious charges of plagiarism against IU.
Furthermore, EDAM Entertainment has shed light on an ongoing campaign by a group of online detractors who have been harassing IU for several months. The agency claims these individuals have been orchestrating a relentless effort to besmirch her image by fabricating the allegations of plagiarism, adding another layer of complexity to the legal proceedings.
