Mark Lee’s Label Announces Legal Action Against Malicious Posts

Mark Lee’s label UPPER ROOM has announced plans to take legal action against malicious posts and comments targeting the singer.

On September 2, Summer, UPPER ROOM’s in-house lawyer, announced that the label would take firm legal action against malicious content targeting Mark Lee, including posts and comments that constitute cyberbullying.

The label’s full statement is as follows:

Hello, this is Summer, in-house lawyer at UPPER ROOM.

First and foremost, we would like to sincerely thank all the fans for your continued anticipation and love for our artist Mark Lee’s new single “My Friend.”
Like the cool breeze that arrives at the end of a hot summer, we hope this song brings a refreshing and pleasant feeling to your everyday lives.

Since our establishment in the first half of this year, we have been continuously monitoring malicious posts targeting our artist across various online platforms and social media, including malicious slander, the spread of baseless false information, and violations of his personal rights.

At present, the artist is more concerned about the emotional pain and stress that these malicious posts may cause his fans than he is about himself. Accordingly, for the sake of both the artist and his fans, we intend to take firm legal action against malicious posts and comments that constitute cyberbullying.

Moving forward, we promise to continue doing our utmost to ensure that the relationship between the artist and his fans remains centered on the beautiful connection they share through music.

Thank you.

Watch: Kim Hye Joon Steps Up To Make Her Mark As Lee Dong Wook Protects Her In “A Shop For Killers 2” Teaser

“A Shop for Killers 2” has unveiled a new highlight teaser!

Based on a novel by “The Killer’s Shopping List” author Kang Ji Young, “A Shop for Killers” is an action drama that follows Jeong Ji An (Kim Hye Joon), who moves in with her uncle Jeong Jin Man (Lee Dong Wook) after her parents’ passing. Jin Man runs a shopping mall, but when he suddenly dies, Ji An inherits his secret and dangerous legacy and becomes the target of suspicious killers. Season 2 follows Ji An, who becomes the shopping mall’s new CEO. She joins forces with Jin Man, who returns alive, to fight back against the global forces of Babylon.

The newly released teaser reveals Jin Man and Ji An beginning their counterattack to protect everything they hold dear. After learning the truth about Jin Man and the killer shopping mall Murthehelp, Ji An wants to leave everything behind and live an ordinary life. However, Babylon plans to use her as bait to capture Jin Man.

Realizing that she can no longer avoid what lies ahead, Ji An accepts her fate and takes her first step as the new owner of Murthehelp. Ji An’s vow, “I won’t do things the way Jeong Jin Man did, ever,” reveals her determination to ensure that she does not lose the people she cherishes.

Meanwhile, a series of intense action sequences foreshadows the full-scale war between Murthehelp and Babylon while showcasing the expanded scope of the story. As Babylon’s relentless attacks continue to close in from every direction, Ji An’s desperate cries and the moment when Jin Man, who has always maintained his composure, explodes with emotion and shouts, “Protect Jeong Ji An, right now!” amplify anticipation for the unpredictable developments that will unfold in Season 2.

Mark Establishes New Label + Launches Official Social Media Channels

Former NCT member Mark has announced a new beginning with the launch of his own label!

On June 4, Upper Room announced, “Mark has officially launched the creative company Upper Room, which will serve as the starting point for his music, creative vision, and the various projects he will pursue in the future.”

Founded by Mark alongside longtime colleagues with whom he has built trust over the years, Upper Room is a creative company centered on music with plans to organically connect various content fields—including video, visual art, and performance—to further expand Mark’s creative world in a multidimensional way.

The name “Upper Room” represents more than just a physical space—it symbolizes a place where people with shared goals and ideas can come together, exchange inspiration, and explore new possibilities.

To mark the launch, Upper Room unveiled a series of announcement films through its official social media accounts.

According to the company, the announcement film was inspired by the era of 15th-century movable-type printing. Designed to highlight the value of human creativity and craftsmanship in an age of rapidly advancing technology, the film was created entirely without the use of AI-generated imagery, with every visual produced by hand to reflect the message and vision behind Upper Room.

Check out the label’s announcement film below!

You can also follow Upper Room’s Instagram account here and X (formerly Twitter) account here!

Wishing Mark and his new label all the best!
