[Asia Economy Reporter Lee Jung-yoon] Singer Sung Si-kyung has filed a complaint with the police against netizens who posted malicious comments.
On the 21st, the Seocho Police Station in Seoul announced that it received a complaint the previous day from Sung Si-kyung's side requesting an investigation into the malicious commenters for violations of the Act on Promotion of Information and Communications Network Utilization and Information Protection (defamation) and insult charges.
The police are currently identifying the number of malicious commenters accused by Sung Si-kyung's side.
In November last year, Sung Si-kyung warned of legal action through his Instagram, saying, "I think this can no longer be overlooked. Personal insults and the spread of malicious rumors hurt me deeply, but when I think about how much it must have hurt those who like me, my heart aches."
