article: Le Seraphim plans to take legal action against malicious comments

[+143] Well, maybe they should actually start listening to some of the comments.

[+136] If I say I can't sing, does that count as a malicious comment?

– [+15] It must be defamation.

– [+14] I think comments that cross the line between criticism and excessive hatred are more like this.

– [+4] But saying you can't sing is criticism, not hate… I think only comments that make personal attacks will be classified as hate.

[+120] People aren't lying…

[+118] There are some people who don't understand the comments haha. Do you really think the only comments were “I can't sing” or “I'm practicing live”? Comments across all platforms crossed the line from belittling one's appearance to sexually harassing. I completely understand why we are taking legal action now. By the way, I've closed the comment window, so I'm sure the people who are criticizing me right now will be scared lol.

[+69] If you've seen the comments on Shorts or Reels about Le Sserafim recently, you'll definitely notice that the comments below are not 'criticism' at all. They were insulting the members, attacking their characters, and making fun of their looks, and it's unfair that they're being ridiculed in the comments here for finally taking legal action. If you want to criticize Le Sserafim so badly, you need to frame your comments in a useful way that allows you to provide feedback. Harassment and ridicule are not criticism.

[+66] The comments on the members' personal Instagrams were also really off, and the comments here aren't any better lol Some of you really need to learn what 'criticism' means. Nothing comes close to criticism

[+83] Yeah, I've noticed a lot of crazy comments about them lately…

[+11] As expected, Daughters of the Hive hahahaha Where are the legal notices for other groups? Fans begged and pleaded but remained silent. They only care about protecting their daughter!

[+17] Put your hand on your heart and think carefully about whether the comment you left was criticism or hate. This applies not only to Le Sserafim commenters, but also to ILLIT. Now that I think about it, there were almost no comments criticizing my skills, and there were a lot more comments hating me for no reason. Think for yourself whether this group has done something so heinous as to justify that kind of hatred. Too many people these days are feeling comfortable crossing the line.

[+24] Some of the people who commented here meet the criteria for this lawsuit.

[+11] Yes, don't be too easy on people you don't like and lock them all up ????

[+5] I'm kind of glad this happened haha. Recent events have shown me that while I admit I don't really like Le Sserafim, I can definitely see that people have crossed the line from criticism to outright, unfounded hatred. Actually, I was afraid that the members of Le Seraphim would have bad thoughts as this kind of hatred spread, but this notice has finally been posted haha. I hope the members can grow from this and overcome the hatred.

[+58] Looking at Le Sserafim's post, you can see that the comments are not criticism, but hate.
