ENHYPEN's Jay was reportedly the victim of a privacy violation and stalking by someone who allegedly posed as an employee at an internet and television service center. This information was conveyed directly by BELIFT LAB through an official announcement on the Weverse platform on November 3, 2026. 

The agency explained that the privacy violation had been going on since June 2026. According to BELIFT LAB, the perpetrator attempted to contact Jay's personal phone number several times. In the first contact, the person claimed to be an employee at an internet and television installation service center.

The perpetrator even named Jay's family members and used the excuse of providing service information to approach the idol. In the conversation, the perpetrator also asked for time to contact Jay again and gave his personal contact number.

However, after Jay confirmed the information directly with his family, it was discovered that the information the person had provided was not true. Even though Jay did not respond to further communication attempts, the perpetrator continued to contact him repeatedly.

The situation became more serious after the perpetrator allegedly recorded telephone conversations without permission and distributed the recordings through a number of platforms, including KakaoTalk, Instagram, and X Spaces.

BELIFT LAB believes this action is more than just a simple privacy violation. The dissemination of personal information and recorded conversations has the potential to cause additional harm and disrupt the artist's psychological well-being.

As a follow-up, the agency has filed a criminal complaint against the perpetrator. BELIFT LAB has also sent official letters to three major telecommunications companies in South Korea requesting their cooperation in identifying the responsible parties.

The agency emphasized that it will not tolerate stalking or illegal distribution of artists' personal information. BELIFT LAB also expressed its appreciation to fans who have submitted reports and assisted in the handling of the case.

The agency asks fans to remain active in reporting actions that could potentially endanger the safety of artists through available artist rights protection channels. Jay's case serves as another reminder that an artist's privacy and safety must be respected, even outside of their professional activities.
