Latest videos of live streamers recently uploaded on social media sites Xshowing him playing the Japanese military song, “Batote” while giving a Roman salute. However, he did not stop there, because he also conveyed a message to South Korea. “Let me tell you why you are so weak,” he said. “Because you are not fighting Japan; To fight a little golden goblin, a little black YouTuber… Instead of fighting me, fight Japan. ”

Johnny Somali banned from leaving South Korea

The Somali, who has been charged with causing a “disturbance” at a convenience store on October 17, is considered a flight risk and is currently banned from leaving South Korea. He allegedly got into a fight with a 7-Eleven employee after the employee told him not to drink alcohol in the store. He also reportedly played loud music and yelled sexist slurs at the worker. Ten days before the convenience store incident, the controversial anchor kissed and had a lap dance at the Statue of Peace. The Peace Statue is a monument commemorating Japanese soldier comfort women and sex slaves during World War II.

Somali later posted a video apologizing for his actions, claiming he was unaware of the statue’s significance. Not surprisingly, viewers doubted his sincerity. Over the past few months, he has continued to annoy South Korean citizens with actions such as loudly playing North Korean music and Kim Jong Un’s speeches on public transportation. On October 30, Somalia became a topic of discussion at a parliamentary meeting in Seoul, with government members expressing the need to monitor him. The next day, a YouTuber Arrested for attacking Somalis.

Somalis first made headlines last May for harassing passengers on a train in Japan. He shouted things like “Hiroshima, Nagasaki… we’ll do it again.” Despite being forced to make multiple public apologies, his inflammatory videos continue to outrage locals and people online. In September 2023, Somalia and his accomplice Jeremiah Dwane Branch were arrested for trespassing at a hotel construction site in Nihonbashi Ward, Chuo-ku, Osaka. Branch filmed the video as Somalis chanted “Blessed Island!” He was later arrested again for playing loud music at a gyudon (beef rice) restaurant. This resulted in a fine of 200,000 yen.
