SM Entertainment Announces Strong Legal Action Against Sasaeng Of NCT's Jaehyun

SM Entertainment will be taking strict action against a sasaeng (those who stalk or severely invade the privacy of public figures) of NCT’s Jaehyun.

Earlier on August 21, a foreign sasaeng of NCT’s Jaehyun uploaded a video showcasing the interior of a hotel room that NCT 127 members had occupied during their U.S. tour in October last year. The controversial video was taken after the sasaeng stole Jaehyun’s hotel room key card and illicitly entered the room while it was unoccupied.

The video also captured Jaehyun’s stage outfits and personal belongings and fans further noticed that the hotel room depicted in the video bore a striking resemblance to the backdrop of the hotel room where NCT members had conducted live streams.

On August 22, SM Entertainment officially announced, “The leaked video is an illegal act that severely violates the artist’s privacy. We are collecting evidence against the initial uploader and all those who distribute the video. We will request the cooperation of domestic and international sites as well as legal firms to ensure a thorough investigation is conducted by law enforcement agencies.”
