Singer and actor Son Dam-bi won 500,000 won in compensation against two netizens who made malicious comments in connection with the sexual assault of a teenage student of Lee Kyu-hyun, a former member of the national figure skating team.

Civil 12 of the Seoul Western District Court ruled in December 2025 that Son Dam-bi should pay 300,000 won, 200,000 won, and 500,000 won, respectively, in a damages lawsuit filed against two haters, asking them to pay 23 million won.

Son Dam-bi's side filed the same lawsuit against three other haters at the same time, but dropped the lawsuit against them during the trial.

In the judgment, the court said, "The defendant violated the plaintiff's moral rights by writing abusive language containing derogatory expressions. "We are obligated to compensate for mental damage financially," he explained. "The amount of alimony was set in consideration of the content of the article posted by the defendant, the level of expression, and various circumstances that appeared during the pleading process."

The lawsuit was filed by Son Dam-bi in September 2022 after Lee Kyu-hyun was convicted of all charges such as arrest, attempted sexual assault, sexual harassment, and illegal filming of a teenage student and was sentenced to four years in prison.

Through the trial, Son Dam-bi said, "The haters made insulting and derogatory personal attacks. I suffered mental damage due to malicious comments," he claimed.

Meanwhile, Son Dam-bi married former speed skater Lee Kyu-hyuk in 2022 and gave birth to her daughter Hae-yang in April 2025.
