Women Press Freedom stands in solidarity with journalist Kim, who was pressured and coerced into retracting her critical statements about the COO of a music company involved in the 2023 death of a woman artist.

This attempt to silence Kim raises serious concerns about the suppression of women’s voices in South Korea’s media industry.

We condemn the intimidation she has faced and demand transparency, accountability, and protection for her in the face of these threats.
