The public is growing increasingly tired of the endless revelations and explanations related to the blackmail and extortion incident involving YouTuber Tzuyang.
On the 1st, Tzuyang uploaded a video titled “This is the final explanation video” on her YouTube channel.
In the video, Tzuyang confessed to the abuse she suffered, including an abortion using her name, and sexual assault, and explained the suspicions of forged wills, tax evasion, and an adult entertainment establishment.
In particular, she revealed that she was sexually assaulted even after breaking up with her ex-boyfriend and agency CEO, Mr. A. The recording that Tzuyang released was shocking as it contained the exact situation at the time. Tzuyang expressed her refusal in a pained voice, and Mr. A did not hesitate to verbally abuse Tzuyang.
Previously, the YouTube channel “Garosero Research Institute” released a recording in which the “Wreck Association,” which included YouTubers Karakula, Gujeongyeok, Crocodile, and Jeon Guk-jin, threatened Tzuyang.
Tzuyang’s side revealed the relationship with Mr. A and the situation where he was not paid for his earnings, as well as the violence, threats, and extortion he suffered. It was also revealed that Tzuyang was threatened by cyber wrecking YouTubers through this content.
In response, Foot-and-Mouth-Eye claimed innocence, and Tzuyang released the video and email in which Foot-and-Mouth-Eye threatened her in a second explanation video, along with an explanation about her continued work at the establishment. However,
Garosero Research Institute continuously raised suspicions through their YouTube channel and media reports that Tzuyang’s identity theft and her explanation about working at an adult entertainment establishment were false.
In the end, Tzuyang’s side stated, “These claims are not true, and CEO Kim Se-ui has spread false information not only about Tzuyang, but also about people around her, and has personally sanctioned her beyond measure. The secondary and tertiary damage is extreme,” and sued Garosero Research Institute’s CEO Kim Se-ui, even uploading a third explanation video.
Despite revealing her own shortcomings, the public is showing fatigue with Garosero Research Institute’s position that she is demanding another explanation, saying, “We’ve seen the video that incited public opinion. The explanation that Garosero Research Institute requested has not been provided at all.”
There is concern that the revealing of such a graphic situation in a space accessible to everyone increases the risk of abuse and imitation. Netizens expressed their regret, saying, “I couldn’t bear to listen to it,” “Who is this mudslinging expose for?” and “Why does the victim have to reveal the truth about the damage done?”
Meanwhile, YouTuber Karakula (real name Lee Se-wook), for whom a pre-arrest warrant has been requested on charges of blackmail and aiding and abetting blackmail in connection with the incident, and Choi, the lawyer for Tzuyang’s ex-boyfriend, are undergoing an arrest hearing today (the 2nd).
