Rapper Zico said he was legally responding to various malicious posts and comments.

On the 5th, KOZ Entertainment, a subsidiary of Zico, said, “In November, the lawyers filed a first complaint against posts such as dissemination of false facts about Zico, sexual harassment, defamation, personal attacks, and infringement of privacy. He was charged with the charges of insult under Article 311 of the Criminal Code and was briefly prosecuted, and the rest are under investigation."

Earlier, in October last year, KOZ Entertainment announced through various online communities and SNS channel monitors that it was taking legal measures against malicious posts and comments such as distributing false facts about its artist Zico, defamation, and personal attacks.

Zico added that it will take additional legal steps in the future.
