Jennie Kim wins case against fake dad
19 Jun - Jennie Kim has recently won her lawsuit against an imposter claiming to be her biological father.
According to Korean magazine Women Sense, the ruling was actually made back on 9 June by the Uijeongbu District Court, with the judge finding that the man's claims to be the BLACKPINK member's real father were unsubstantiated.
It is noted that Jennie's team filed a lawsuit after the man revealed last year that he has published a novel with the assistance of AI and that the novel was based on "a true story" about Jennie.
He also claimed to be a former producer for a TV network and a director who made independent films in Japan and the US.
Referring to the said man and his publisher, the court stated, "There is no other evidence besides the defendants' own assertions that the man is the plaintiff's biological father, as opposed to the plaintiff's certificate of family relations, which lists a different individual as her father."
The court has also ordered the man and his publishing company to destroy all existing copies of the book. He was also banned from mentioning anything related to Jennie on his KakaoTalk and other personal social media accounts.

Justin Baldoni ‘Waiting For His Day in Court' Amid Blake Lively Lawsuit Dismissal
Justin Baldoni is 'waiting for his day in court' after his lawsuit dismissal, as his legal battle with is 'far from over.' On Monday, a New York judge tossed his $400 million defamation and extortion countersuit against his 'It Ends With Us' co-star and her husband, Ryan Reynolds. The director-actor's lawyer, Bryan Freedman, told TMZ Live on Tuesday that they both believe the judge's decision to dismiss the suit was unfair and 'not right.' Freedman implied the star is now awaiting the chance to share his story in the courtroom. Bryan Freedman addressed the Justin Baldoni-Blake Lively lawsuit dismissal in an interview with TMZ Live. PEOPLE shared excerpts from the same, in which Freedman disclosed that he and his client, Baldoni, had similar reactions to the news. 'What was Justin's reaction to it? The same as my reaction to it,' he apprised, adding they believe it was 'not fair and not right.' In addition, the lawyer noted that the star only wants the truth to come to light. Freedman continued that Baldoni desires vindication concerning Lively's sexual harassment claims from December 2024. 'That's all that he cares about,' asserted the attorney, claiming the actor-director 'knows what he's done' and 'what he hasn't done.' Moreover, he only wants to establish the facts and lay bare the truth in the 'appropriate way' and is 'waiting for his day in court, where he can speak out to tell the truth.' Freedman highlighted his and Justin Baldoni's displeasure with Monday's lawsuit dismissal, implying the legal battle with Blake Lively remains unresolved. The lawyer declared that it's 'so far from over, let's just put it that way.' He further called her allegations against his client and the Wayfarer Studios parties 'completely wrong,' affirming she's 'afraid of the truth.' Nevertheless, the attorney insisted that the upcoming depositions would expose the truth. Baldoni's lawyer avowed that they plan on proceeding forward with the case and proving 'there was no sexual harassment.' He maintained they would 'show that there was no smear campaign' and called the wrong accusations 'unfortunate.'

Taylor Swift's Messages Crucial To Disprove Blake Lively's Allegations, Baldoni Claims — Report
Justin Baldoni reportedly alleged that and Taylor Swift's text messages could prove crucial in disproving lawsuit allegations. Last week, his 'It Ends With Us' co-star filed a motion to block his attempts to seek and use their exchanges in the court case. Lively called his efforts a mere PR 'tactic' to exploit Swift, claiming these communications were 'irrelevant.' However, Baldoni's lawyers argued the relevance in a response filing on Tuesday, weeks after dropping the subpoena to the musician. Billboard reported that Justin Baldoni is pushing for access to Blake Lively and Taylor Swift's text messages in the case's latest update. Contrary to Lively's claims, his lawyers alleged that these communications would prove crucial in challenging his legal adversary's sexual harassment and smear campaign allegations. Moreover, Baldoni's team shifted the blame to Lively for 'contemporaneously' inserting Swift into the legal dispute. They called out the 'Gossip Girl' alum for using her pop star friend's 'stardom to withhold evidence.' His lawyers also maintained that her own discovery materials identified the singer as someone with knowledge of what she experienced. Reportedly, Lively sought a 'protective order' to restrict the contesting party from acquiring their messages on Friday. In her filings, she accused her co-star and his legal team of strategically devising the 'tactic' to take advantage of Swift. She even questioned the relevance in connection with his claims. The motion came weeks after a New York judge dismissed Baldoni's $400 million countersuit against her and her husband, Ryan Reynolds. Before that, the actor-director had served two separate subpoenas to the Grammy winner and her lawyers, which he later dropped, claiming they got what they needed. Justin Baldoni's latest move aims to pursue these Taylor Swift messages directly from Blake Lively. On top of that, he believes this could also substantiate whether his co-star actually suffered emotional distress as she has claimed in her December lawsuit. Baldoni reportedly stated that Lively and Swift's messages could disprove the sexual harassment and smear campaign allegations.
