The channel "Yongjuree Lee Yongju", for which Lee Yongju of "Pisik University" serves as executive producer and director, received a warning from YouTube.
Lee Yongju said on the 10th, "I am Lee Yongju, the executive producer and director of the Yongjuree Lee Yongju channel," and added, "I have summoned the courage to publicize our grievances against YouTube and expose YouTube's wrongdoing."
He continued, "This morning we received notification from YouTube that the 'Yongjuree Lee Yongju' channel violated guidelines and was banned from uploading for one week and given a red tag," and said in protest, "When we checked the reason, our work 'Pajama party surprise attack v-log at Seonmin's place' was labeled sexual act content, branding us as cheap and depraved people."
He said, "Because of this, not only my reputation but also the reputation of comedian Lee Seonmin, who is currently rising in popularity, has been tarnished, and comedian Yoo Youngwoo is recovering at home after a meal due to shock," and added, "Of course, I acknowledge that Yoo Youngwoo's body is of poor quality and that Lee Seonmin's muscles are too massive."
He added, "But the 710,000 penguin subscribers who watched our video 'Pajama party surprise attack v-log at Seonmin's place' will know. We never staged any sexual scenes. We just ate tasty food, chatted, farted a few times and fell asleep. I earnestly ask you to be our witnesses."
He said the next video has been postponed indefinitely. Lee Yongju explained, "Also, the 'Lee Seonmin hair loss tour surprise attack v-log' that was scheduled to be uploaded today has already been edited, but it has been postponed indefinitely with no scheduled date," and said, "If YouTube attacks us again, our channel will disappear."
Finally, he added, "Please resolve our grievances and stop YouTube's wrongdoing so we can continue to post videos that bring you joy."
Additionally, Lee Yongju posted on social media, "This is a video of us hanging out, but YouTube labeled it sexual content and banned uploads for one week," and asked, "Please help us."
He also captured and released a screenshot showing a notice that the video 'Pajama party surprise attack v-log at Seonmin's house' violated the 'excessive exposure and sexual content policy.'
Netizens reacted to the absurd reason, saying, "Why is YouTube taking away my enjoyment?", "The criteria are too vague", "YouTube Korea must be held accountable", and "Why a red tag?", expressing that they could not understand it.
