YouTuber probed after making false claim about mutilated bodies<\/h2>\n

A popular YouTuber in South Korea with nearly 1 million subscribers is being investigated by authorities after he made claims that 37 mutilated bodies were found in the country.<\/p>\n

According to Korea JoongAng, the man surnamed Cho was charged with spreading misinformation in mid February this year.<\/p>\n

Claimed that crime in South Korea is getting worse<\/h3>\n

The video that got him in trouble was published on 22 Oct 2025.<\/p>\n

It was titled “The problem of murders and organ trafficking committed by criminal Chinese nationals who recently entered Korea without visas is becoming serious”.<\/p>\n

In the video, the YouTuber made several unverified claims including that 37 lower halves of corpses were found and that there are 80,000 missing people in South Korea.<\/p>\n

Under investigation for damaging “national interests”<\/h3>\n

That video, among several others, led to police opening an investigation in November, and he has since been called in for questioning.<\/p>\n

The National Police Agency would later define such videos a “serious act harming national interests”.<\/p>\n

According to The Korea Times, police also requested the seizure of US$2,421 (S$3,086) — an amount that is believed to have been illegally earned via YouTube.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, the YouTuber has defended himself online with another upload to his channel.<\/p>\n
