JAKARTA - Bang Chan from the Stray Kids group took legal action regarding the user of the X account who uploaded a deepfake video of him. His lawsuit was received by a judge in California, United States on September 5.

Bang Chan asked the court for access to information about an account that uploaded a deepfake video of him speaking racist words on the internet. He filed a lawsuit on September 1 and was received four days later.

Apart from Bang Chan, another member of Stray Kids - Felix also filed a similar lawsuit on September 3.
