This is in accordance with their responsibilities to protect and assure the safety of their artists. There were several reports of harassment, discriminations and rude comments that the artists were getting that leads for the management to proceed to solve these legally.

The following is the official Statement of the SOOP Management on their official Instagram account:

"Please Note.

We have determined that the acts of indiscriminate afflictions against our actors have reached an unacceptable level, and we are taking legal action through the law firm's horizons to protect our actors.

For Gong Hyo Jin's case, we are preparing to file a suit by gathering evidence materials. We will inform you about the legal response.

For Suzy's, we are already collecting evidence to file a complaint.

Last year, Actor Gong Yoo, he sued a bad boy who had been harassing Mr. Gong for a long time last April.

As for, Jung Yu Mi who sued the person behind the malicious reports, disrespectful and negative comments about her were already punished with fines."

SOOP Management also added, "In addition to the mentioned actors, all of the artists will be monitored continuously. We will continue to take legal action after acquiring evidence when we find malicious slander such as posting false facts, insults, or defamation against our actors. We strongly urge that there will be no consultation for the punished."

"Thank you."
