Jaejoong's malicious slanderer gets punished with a fine


The malicious person who consistently slandered JYJ's Jaejoong on the internet has been punished with a fine.  The Seoul Central District Court revealed on February 21 that they have fined "A" with 1.5 million won (~ $1,400 USD) for defamation.  

Judge Yang said, "Through this offense, the defendant arbitrarily interpreted, reproduced on a large scale, and maliciously distorted rumors that were being talked about on the internet, severely damaging the victim's reputation.  The victim may be a celebrity in whom the public has an interest in, but as the content in the defamation was strongly affiliated with his private sphere, it is appropriate to deem it damaging."




From August to September of 2012, a lot of slandering content related to Jaejoong's family relations and sexual preferences were uploaded onto the internet forum of one fan club so that the person responsible, A, was ultimately charged with defamation.  

During the process of the trial, A had claimed that A had purposely pretended to be an anti-fan to provoke sympathy for Jaejoong.

Agency ordered to repay partner

A Seoul court ordered the agency of Block B to return nearly $600,000 to its partner, holding it responsible for not hosting a concert of the idol group. The Seoul Central District Court ruled yesterday that Stardom Entertainment, which represents the seven-member boy group, needs to pay 652.44 million won ($586,990) to Shownote. The two companies signed a deal in September last year after agreeing to collaborate to hold Block B concerts at least twice each year for two years. Shownote gave the money to Stardom Entertainment on two occasions through October of last year. But the concerts were canceled after a conflict between Block B and Stardom Entertainment deepened over the terms of the contract. Shownote terminated the deal with Stardom Entertainment and filed a lawsuit to get the money back. Stardom Entertainment reportedly filed a countersuit, claiming Shownote slandered another singer that it represented and demanded 30 million won in compensation.
