Hello, this is Urban Works. First of all, we would like to sincerely thank all of the fans who love and support our agency’s artists. Lately, netizens have been spreading false information, distorted rumors, and sexual harrassment about our artists on and offline.

In order to protect the fundamental human rights of our artists, we would like to inform you that we will be pursing legal action against malicious comments and the spread of groundless misinformation. In addition to direct monitoring for the above-mentioned malicious comments, false information, distorted rumors, sexual harassment, et cetera, we ask that fans who happen to see any instances of such conduct to email us at ent@urbanworks.co.kr to provide us with evidence. As always, we thank you for your love and support of our artists, and we ask for your continued support and warm encouragement. Thank you.
