On the 18th, High Up Entertainment announced through the official fan community Weverse, "Recently, copyright infringement has been occurring frequently, including cases where photos of our artist STAYC Yoon have been used without permission for album covers, both online and offline," and "We will respond strictly with the law in accordance with copyright law in cases of unauthorized use or malicious reprocessing."
In addition, they said, "Such acts are a violation of copyright law and are illegal acts that seriously infringe upon the rights of artists. Photos, videos, and other copyrighted works of our artists are protected by law," and "We are currently taking internal measures regarding the matter, and we plan to continue to crack down on similar cases through thorough monitoring in the future."
Recently, the fact that a foreign rapper used a magazine pictorial taken by Yoon as the cover photo for his album began to spread online.
