Additionally, the agency requested fans to respect the privacy of the artists, avoid illegally obtaining their personal information, and stay away from the companies' premises.
The warning emphasized that legal action would be taken against anyone who misuses the artists' personal data, infringes upon their privacy, or repeatedly loiters around the company's offices without permission.
