In a bold and decisive move, CUBE Entertainment has announced that it will be taking strong legal action to protect its artists, specifically the globally popular K-pop girl group (G)I-DLE, from harmful and defamatory content.
The agency issued an official statement on April 18, 2025, outlining its firm commitment to holding individuals accountable for spreading maliciously edited videos and other harmful online materials that target the group and potentially damage their reputation.
CUBE revealed that they are already in the process of securing evidence related to these malicious acts.

The statement was clear in its tone, stressing that legal action will be pursued “without any leniency or settlement,” signaling the agency’s zero-tolerance policy toward defamation, cyberbullying, and character attacks against its artists.
This means that perpetrators will face legal consequences regardless of apologies or attempts to negotiate.
This move comes amid a growing trend in the K-pop industry, where agencies are stepping up to actively shield idols from online hate, false rumors, and targeted harassment.
As the global influence of K-pop idols grows, so does the scrutiny and online vitriol they often face.
By taking legal measures, CUBE Entertainment joins other major agencies in setting a precedent: malicious behavior in the digital space will no longer be ignored or tolerated.
(G)I-DLE, known for hits like “TOMBOY,” “Nxde,” and “Queencard,” has built a reputation for being unapologetically bold and self-empowered in both music and messaging.

Fans have largely reacted with support and relief, praising the agency for taking a proactive approach in safeguarding the mental well-being and public image of the group.
Many have also expressed hope that this signals a wider cultural shift toward accountability and responsibility online.
As CUBE moves forward with legal proceedings, fans and the broader K-pop community will be watching closely.
This action not only protects (G)I-DLE but also sends a powerful message: malicious behavior has real-world consequences, and K-pop artists deserve dignity, respect, and protection just like anyone else.
