Hello,

This is the production team of "My Sibling's Romance."

Despite our program recently ending, we continue to observe malicious comments, slander against our non-celebrity participants, and the spread of false information online.

These actions exceed constructive criticism and significantly harm the reputations of our participants. Moreover, they pose a serious threat to their daily lives and mental well-being.

In order to protect our participants, we intend to take strong action against the dissemination of false information and any acts that defame them. We are actively collaborating with our legal team to gather evidence thoroughly.

Please be informed that we will pursue all necessary legal measures, both civil and criminal.

We appreciate your understanding and cooperation. Kindly refrain from unfairly attacking contestants and spreading false information.

Thank you.

The announcement comes amidst a rising trend of online harassment and false accusations against reality TV participants, prompting networks and production teams to take stricter measures to protect their cast members' rights and well-being.

The production team concluded their statement by urging the public to refrain from unjustly attacking contestants and spreading unfounded rumors.

They expressed gratitude for the understanding and cooperation of viewers and fans of the show.
