Singer IU will receive compensation for damages from A, who falsely raised suspicions of plagiarism.
According to the legal community today (18th), the Civil 29th Division of the Seoul Central District Court ruled in favor of the plaintiff in a lawsuit filed by IU against A.
Accordingly, A must compensate IU for 30 million won.
In May last year, A accused IU of violating the copyright law, but the police rejected the accusation on the grounds that it did not constitute a crime.
At the time, IU filed a lawsuit against A for damages for defamation, infringement of personal rights, and intentional acts, saying, "We strongly condemn the malicious accusation behavior and collective and violent acts against the artist."
However, it is reported that A's side has been consistent in responding to the stage at the trial.
