For the first time since his debut 19 years ago, singer G-DRAGON has announced that he will be taking strong legal action against those who post malicious and defamatory comments online. His agency, Galaxy Corporation, made the official announcement on April 3, 2025, signaling a firm stance against online abuse targeting the artist.
Galaxy Corporation’s Announcement
Galaxy Corporation released an official statement outlining their plans to address the issue of baseless falsehoods and malicious posts circulating online and on social media platforms regarding their artist, G-DRAGON.
Hello, this is Galaxy Corporation.
Recently, baseless falsehoods and malicious posts targeting our artist have been indiscriminately spreading through online communities and social media.
These actions go beyond mere opinions—they severely damage the artist’s reputation and create significant confusion among fans and the general public due to misinformation.
As such, we take these malicious activities very seriously and will proceed with strong legal action. The dissemination of false information, defamation, insults, and invasion of privacy are clear violations of the law and may be subject to legal punishment under the Information and Communications Network Act and the Criminal Act.
We are closely monitoring online communities and social media, collecting relevant data, and actively utilizing reports from fans as critical evidence in our legal response.
If you come across any malicious posts targeting our artist, we would appreciate it if you could report them to us via the email address below.
Galaxy Corporation will thoroughly review all malicious content and take necessary legal steps. We make it clear that we will take strict action against the spread of falsehoods and defamation without any settlements or leniency.
We remain committed to protecting our artist’s rights through thorough monitoring and continuous response efforts.
We sincerely thank all fans for their unwavering love and support for our artist.
Thank you.
— Galaxy Corportion
The agency emphasized that the spread of false information, defamation, insults, and invasion of privacy are illegal and could result in legal penalties. They also mentioned actively monitoring online platforms and using fan reports as crucial evidence in their legal efforts. Galaxy Corporation made it clear that they will not offer any settlements or show leniency in these legal proceedings.
A Change in Approach
This announcement marks a significant shift for G-DRAGON, who previously adopted a more lenient approach. In 2023, he had granted a period for the removal of defamatory content and malicious comments. However, the current decision to pursue strong legal action indicates a firm determination to protect his reputation and combat online abuse.
It’s worth noting that G-DRAGON recently faced some controversy regarding his delayed appearance at a concert in South Korea.
