A bounded linear operator \(T\) on a separable complex Hilbert space \(\mathcal H\) is called \textit{complex symmetric} if there exists a conjugate-linear operator \(C:\mathcal H\to\mathcal H\) that is isometric and involutive such that \(T=CT^\ast C\); in this case, we say that \(T\) is \(C\)-\textit{symmetric}. In this paper, the author asserts that Example 3.6 of [\textit{S.-G. Jung} et al., J. Funct. Anal. 267, No. 2, 323--351 (2014; Zbl 1292.47014)] cannot be considered as an answer for the the following problem. Problem. Does there exist a non-constant and non-automorphic symbol \(\varphi\) for which the composition operator \(C_\varphi\) defined on the Hardy-Hilbert space \(H^2(\mathbb D)\) by \(C_\varphi f=f\circ\varphi\) is complex symmetric but not normal? Further, he points out that under the same notations as in [loc. cit., Corollary 3.5], since \(W^\ast_{\psi_\lambda,b_\lambda}\mathcal JW_{\psi_\lambda,b_\lambda}=\mathcal J\) and the only composition operators \(\mathcal J\)-symmetric on \(H^2(\mathbb D)\) are normal operators, where \((\mathcal J f )(z)=\overline{f(\bar z)}\), [loc. cit., Corollary 3.5], gives no nontrivial examples of complex symmetric composition operators on \(H^2(\mathbb D)\).
