US denies lawsuit against BTS defaming netizen

Information requested from the United States would be used in an open process after the internet user spread false allegations about BTS and LE SSERAFIM

According to Koreaboo, the United States District Court for the Northern District of California has denied HYBE’s request to disclose personal information about an X (formerly Twitter) user so that the company could pursue a defamation lawsuit filed after the netizen spread false claims about the BTS and LE SSERAFIM.

The case against user @blamearchive was opened at the Yongsan Police Station in Seoul, South Korea, after HYBE identified that the profile was responsible for claiming that BTS had connections with a religious cult called Dhan World, and that LE SSERAFIM was linked to the dissolution of GFRIEND under the Source Music label.

However, the headquarters of the former Twitter are in the USA, causing HYBE to continue with the process of discovering the identity behind the profile through the US legal system, where it is possible to exchange evidence and documents before a trial, thus how to force third parties to provide information about the accused.

However, HYBE’s request was denied because it would have required the information to be requested by law enforcement agencies, such as the Korean police, rather than by the agency itself, which is listed as a victim in the lawsuit. If that were the case, the lawsuit could have proceeded under the U.S.-Korea treaty, and the data would likely have been released since HYBE’s request met the necessary requirements.

It is worth mentioning that the action was taken by the Judge Vince Chhabriain order to protect the U.S. legal system from misuse by private individuals.
