Around 4,600 famous celebrities’ resident registration numbers have been leaked because of a Federation of Korean Music Performers’ mistake. Lee Hyo Ri made her position clear as being one of them.
On the 26th, the Lee Hyo Ri side said, “Instead of protecting the singers’ rights and interests, the organization has caused us harm.”
But the Lee Hyo Ri side also said, “Fortunately, we haven’t been directly affected by this event and we will see how things go.”
Meanwhile, on the 25th, people were able to get the singers’ resident registration numbers by searching for the singer’s name on Google with the key-words, ‘Federation of Korean Music Performers’.
On the 26th, the Federation of Korean Music Performers left a note on their official website. “We investigated the details of the accident. We found out that private information was exposed to the public because of a system upgrade.”
They also said, “We blocked the system so that people can’t search for information about members anymore. We will supervise the system thoroughly as to not make another mistake.”
“We are truly sorry about what happened and we will do our best to minimize following damage,” they added.
