Singer Kwon Eunbi is gearing up to actively address malicious posts and fake news targeting her.
After her recent appearance at the 'Waterbomb Festival', Kwon Eunbi shed her previously innocent image, showcasing a sultrier side, which quickly became the talk of the town.
However, with her rising popularity, various derogatory comments, defamation remarks, and false plastic surgery news related to Eunbi have rapidly spread.
In response, her agency, Woollim Entertainment, has announced a proactive stance against these malicious posts. On the 29th, the agency stated, "We have identified numerous malicious posts related to Kwon Eunbi, including sexual harassment, defamation, false information, and invasion of personal privacy across various online communities, social media platforms, and YouTube."
The agency further emphasized their commitment to protecting their artist through active monitoring, declaring, "We will respond without leniency to any malicious posts."
While some fans believe the agency's response is overdue, many are relieved to see Woollim Entertainment's firm stance in defending their artist.
The situation escalated recently when fake news originating from China, suggesting Eunbi had undergone plastic surgery, began circulating. Moreover, there's been a concerning increase in posts on YouTube and various online communities that sexually objectify Eunbi, emphasizing the need for the agency's intervention.
Following her performance at the 'Waterbomb Festival', Kwon Eunbi earned the new nickname "Waterbomb Goddess". Her previously released track 'Under Water' has seen a resurgence in popularity, marking a second peak in her career. However, as she presents a more mature charm to the public and undergoes an image transformation, she's also facing the side effects of her soaring popularity.
