Shin Sae Kyeong's agency confirmed an eight-month prison sentence for an individual who threatened and defamed her.

Shin Sae Kyeong's agency, THE PRESENT COMPANY, has announced a significant legal victory in the case against an individual who threatened and defamed the actress. On November 2, the agency revealed that the appellate court upheld the original ruling, sentencing the defendant to eight months in prison.

This decision follows a series of threats and malicious remarks directed at Shin Sae Kyeong, prompting the agency to take legal action. The initial ruling was made in July of the previous year, but the defendant attempted to appeal the sentence.

However, the appellate court dismissed the appeal on October 22, confirming the need for accountability in cases of online harassment. The agency expressed gratitude to fans for their support and information during the legal process.

THE PRESENT COMPANY emphasized that online anonymity does not shield individuals from legal repercussions for their actions. They reiterated their commitment to protecting the rights of their artists and taking firm action against any unlawful acts in the future.
