QWER has initiated legal action against malicious comments targeting its members, citing an increase in defamation and insults. The QWER legal action has prompted mixed reactions on various online communities, with some supporting the move and others attempting to deflect attention. Despite attempts to redirect focus, the legal action against QWER’s critics continues, revealing deeper issues of prejudice against former internet streamers.
QWER Legal Action Against Malicious Comments
The girl group QWER has initiated legal action against malicious comments. Due to the increasing severity of these comments, their agency, 3Y CORPORATION, took immediate legal action. On August 13th, the agency announced on the official fan cafe that over 250 reports were received concerning defamatory and insulting comments about QWER. Subsequently, on June 20th, they filed the first criminal complaint through a law firm.
Malicious Comments Against QWER and Legal Action Response
In addition to monitoring for malicious comments, the agency is collecting reports from fans. They plan to take regular legal action against comments involving malicious defamation, insults, or false information. Meanwhile, a video of member Chodan performing while holding back tears was posted on an online community. This video gained 800,000 views and over 3,900 comments, coinciding with malicious comments on a female-dominated community.
Theqoo’s Reaction to QWER Legal Action
On the Theqoo community, known for radical feminist users, many expressed discomfort with Chodan’s perceived rejection of feminism. The fact that three of the four QWER members were former internet streamers was also criticized. Malicious comments on Theqoo targeted the members, using their past streaming activities as a pretext. Upon learning of the QWER legal action, many Theqoo members showed visible anxiety. Despite this, some continued to insist that their comments were factual and not subject to legal issues.
Theqoo’s Attempts to Shift Focus from QWER Legal Action
Some Theqoo members attempted to redirect attention to other communities, claiming that male-dominated forums should be investigated for sexual harassment against QWER. However, such claims were baseless, as these communities largely support QWER, focusing on discussions of their music. These attempts to deflect accountability do not mitigate the legal consequences for Theqoo’s malicious commenters. Their behavior seems driven by fear.
Theqoo’s Support for QWER Legal Action Against Malicious Comments
Within Theqoo, many members acknowledge the excessive nature of the malicious comments directed at QWER. These individuals welcome the QWER legal action and are now voicing their opinions, previously suppressed by the influence of malicious commenters. They express delight at the legal measures and openly mock the malicious commenters.
Prejudice Against QWER as Former Internet Streamers Drives Malicious Comments
The primary reason for the persistent malicious comments against QWER is the members’ backgrounds as internet streamers. In Korean society, there is a tendency to look down on internet streamers. As these streamers transitioned into the mainstream music industry, resistance naturally emerged. However, QWER has firmly established itself in the music world, leaving no room for such resistance to succeed.
