If they win legally because of public support, it undermines the judiciary system, and in extension, the entire government. Who need these institutions then if "The People's Court" wins? Then it leads it chaos and anarchy once these systems loses its relevance.
The multiple organizations in Korea who gave them a stern warning are correct, if they win, it will undermine the K-pop industry as a whole, not just the idol industry, but the entire K-pop / Korean music. And that's just the beginning, as I've mentioned earlier, it will undermine the judiciary as well.
Start the legal proceedings first. Reveal everything there. And the people will side with you.
Best example? The Depp case. Even though the world turned against him because of what his ex-wife did (swaying public opinions first before the legal proceedings started), he kept quiet and was patient. So, when the proper time and place came, he revealed his aces up his sleeves. The public quickly switched sides to him. And some (or many?) of those who were critical against him turned as well. The legal proceeding was what swayed the public to his side.
It's why legal advisers often say to keep quiet. To only reveal things within the framework of legal proceedings. Otherwise, it can backfire (they divided sheir own fanbase) and it is giving the other party a chance to formulate a strategy (now they have more allies and better statements).
