PocketDol Studio has issued a statement regarding recent dating rumors involving member Kim Gyu Rae.
Suspicions arose in online communities that Kim Gyu Rae, born in 2009, may be in a romantic relationship with a staff member in her 20s. On December 18, Fantasy Boys' agency, PocketDol Studio, addressed the issue through the Fantasy Boys' official fan cafe.
The agency expressed its concern about personal information related to Kim Gyu Rae being leaked and distributed without permission through social media and online communities. They conveyed their sincere apologies for any disappointment and confusion caused by the situation and emphasized that the content of the leaked conversation is misleading.
The statement further explained that the person responsible for leaking and distributing the social media content has engaged in acts of defamation against the artist. This individual allegedly edited messenger conversations and used malicious techniques to create false information that deviates from the actual facts. The agency urged everyone to refrain from sharing photos and content that may lead to misunderstandings and to avoid speculating about the incident.
PocketDol Studio also reported that they have been monitoring related posts, identified those responsible for unauthorized content leakage and distribution, and filed a complaint with the local police station.
In addition to the legal action already taken, the agency is considering further legal measures against the individual responsible for various illegal acts, including defamation of the artist, cybercrimes, threats, and the unauthorized dissemination of personal information about the artist. They intend to respond strongly to any secondary acts that may cause harm and are committed to protecting their artist's reputation.
