Source Music’s Legal Victory Through the Discovery Process

Source Music requested the discovery process to reveal the identities of malicious YouTubers spreading harmful rumors about LE SSERAFIM. The request was made to a U.S. court in California. Although initially pending due to legal requirements, it was granted on August 20. This discovery process will expose the identities of these malicious YouTubers.

Source Music Discovery Process Against Malicious YouTubers

On May 31, Source Music initiated the discovery process targeting malicious YouTubers like Issue Feed and Short Manager. These YouTubers consistently spread false information about LE SSERAFIM and ILLIT. Their videos gained millions of views, causing significant damage to LE SSERAFIM and ILLIT. The members of LE SSERAFIM and ILLIT likely suffered great emotional distress due to these malicious YouTubers.

Community Reaction: Support for Source Music Discovery Process

Source Music’s successful discovery process request has sparked widespread discussion in Korean online communities. Although Source Music hasn’t officially announced it, many netizens are expressing their satisfaction. MLBPARK members are suggesting that these malicious YouTubers didn’t act alone. They suspect that companies hostile to LE SSERAFIM and ILLIT played a role. The Issue Feed channel has repeatedly attacked LE SSERAFIM and ILLIT, leading to strong negative reactions from netizens. Many hope that legal action will stop these malicious YouTubers and put an end to such activities.

Precedent: Discovery Process in Previous Cases

On May 25, 2023, Starship Entertainment successfully utilized the discovery process against malicious commenters. The California court granted the disclosure of information related to the Taldeoksuyongsoo channel. Starship Entertainment’s wise approach paved the way for punishing malicious YouTubers. Previously, the belief was that YouTubers could not be held accountable. Reporting to Korean police was ineffective since platforms like YouTube and Meta refused to disclose information. Malicious YouTubers felt emboldened by this. However, Korean agents are now succeeding in getting discovery process requests granted by U.S. courts. We hope for a future where malicious YouTubers disappear from Korea.
