SM Entertainment (hereinafter referred to as SM) will take legal action against the distribution of private photos of rookie boy group RIIZE’s member Seunghan.
SM said in an official press release on August 30th, “Recently, private photos of RIIZE members have been posted on SNS and online communities without permission. We would like to express our position on this. Such unauthorized leakage and distribution are clearly illegal.” This is SM’s first official statement regarding Seunghan and a girl’s skinship photos that was recently circulated online.
SM explained, “Our company is collecting data on those who posted photos online through Kwangya119 and other monitoring. In addition, we are collecting data extensively on secondary acts such as reposting, redistributing and further spread. We plan to file a complaint against any confirmed individuals who committed a crime.”
According to the agency, Seunghan is deeply reflecting on disappointing fans and causing damage to the team ahead of his official debut. SM added, “We will manage and support RIIZE more closely so that they can focus on their activities in the future. We will work hard to show you good performances.”
Meanwhile, RIIZE, which Seunghan belongs to, will debut with their first single “Get A Guitar” on September 4th.
The single “Get A Guitar” includes two songs, the title track “Get A Guitar” and the prologue single “Memories”.
