Blackpink Jennie wins lawsuit against fraudster; the man claimed to be the idol's father and even published an AI-generated book – deets inside!
Blackpink Jennie had earlier filed a lawsuit against a man who had publicly claimed to be the idol's father and had even published a book under the guise of this identity. In recent updates, the idol has won the official lawsuit, as the court shared that the claims made by the unknown man were 'groundless'.
Blackpink's Jennie wins case against a fraudster
Blackpink's Jennie had filed charges against an anonymous man who claimed to be her father and had written a book under that guise. In a recent court ruling, it was shared that the idol has won the lawsuit, with the court ruling in her favour and sharing that the allegations were not true. As per a popular Korean magazine, Women Sense, the Uijeongbu District Court Goyang Branch made the ruling at the beginning of last month.
The court stated regarding the case that 'There is no supporting evidence for the defendant's claim aside from his own statements. Meanwhile, the plaintiff's official family registry clearly identifies another man as her father. It is therefore reasonable to conclude that the defendant's claim is untrue.'
While the court did not impose any kind of punishment in the matter, they ruled that whatever claims were made were false and even put a stop to the circulation of the content.

The court also issued that since the content spread false information and reputational harm, all existing copies of the book need to be destroyed as well.
What had happened?
Previously, a man whose identity has not been revealed was caught publishing books and published work written through AI. In the prologue of the book, he had also shared that he was Jennie's father. A lawsuit was filed by the idol last year, followed by an injunction later on that requested to stop any and all publication from continuing.
Jennie has kept most of her life private and has not publicly mentioned her family members as well.
