Media related Regulations/Disputes

Due to the rapid evolution of information technology and the rapid development of communication equipment infrastructure, telecommunications carriers, the broadcasting industry, and various media industries have undergone structural transformation and are now facing new challenges. As a result, businesses are being required to properly comply with increasingly complex laws and regulations. In particular, in recent years, as awareness of personal information and data protection and the protection of young people has increased, there have been many cases where businesses have suffered significant damage to their reputations due to violations of regulations. Amid this trend, discussions and legislation on regulating social media have been progressing worldwide in recent years, and businesses are being asked to be flexible in responding to ever-fluctuating legal regulations. Our firm provides comprehensive services relating to media regulations on an ongoing basis, leveraging our extensive practical experience in major laws and regulations, such as the Act on the Protection of Personal Information, Act against Unjustifiable Premiums and Misleading Representations, and the Copyright Act, as well as our extensive knowledge of data regulations in a variety of countries and our global network. We not only provide legal review of new business schemes, but also have extensive experience in dealing with defamation and privacy violations, which are inevitable in the media industry, as well as dealing with the authorities, handling litigation, and crisis management response, and therefore are able to provide practical solutions according to the needs of our clients.
