This is Korean live streamer Yun GR, an influencer with more than 300,000
0:05
followers and a young woman whose playful streams were watched by thousands of viewers at a time. GR had a
0:12
way of making you feel like you were old friends. She was honest, down to earth, and very sincere. For these reasons, she
0:19
resonated perfectly with her audience. However, on September the 11th, 2024,
0:25
this streamer suddenly disappeared. and it happened at the very end of her live stream. What followed was a desperate
0:32
search to try and find her. In fact, it uncovered a horrific story which was born from obsession, money, and a man's
0:39
warped idea of love. And that's because buried within her audience and hidden behind the username of Black Cat, a
0:47
generous donator would turn out to be an obsessive loner. And the truth is, he
0:52
didn't even see Yunji as a person at all. Instead, he saw her as an investment, a possession, and a
0:59
lifeline. The more that he convinced himself that she actually belonged to him. And when GR finally tried to pull
1:06
away, well, let's just say that the situation escalated in the worst way
1:11
imaginable. Welcome, or welcome back to Coffee House Crime, folks. My name is Adrien, and
1:18
today we're traveling to South Korea to look at the recent case of Yun. This is a story about parasocial relationships,
1:25
obsession, enormous donations, and unfortunately also murder. And trust me,
1:31
after watching this video, you will definitely see streaming in a very different way. Oh, by the way, did you
1:36
know that I am actually a human and so are the rest of my team. Apart from Nero, he is definitely a cat. Look, the
1:44
main point I'm trying to make here is that none of us are AI and so if you want to support the work that we do,
1:49
please do consider subscribing. Thank you. And now with that said, please grab yourself a coffee and let's caffeinate
1:54
while we investigate. This is the case of Yun.
2:08
Welcome to Korea, folks. And there really is no other place quite like it. I'm talking about the South, obviously.
2:15
I mean, I could be talking about the North, but that would be for a whole list of other reasons. For today, we're
2:21
focusing on South Korea, a place where ancient palaces and neon skylines just effortlessly mesh together. Late night
2:28
markets are buzzing with food. Apartments stretch out like dominoes into the horizon, and there's an endless
2:34
fixation with technology. And let's be honest here, if Cyberpunk ever really does become real, this absolutely will
2:41
be ground zero. And on that note, I thought you folks might appreciate a small behind-the-scenes update, both
2:47
personally and creatively. As many of you know, I moved to Australia a year ago, and the next step was always to buy
2:53
my first home. And well, what we're standing in right now is Coffee House Crime's brand new studio. For the last 3
3:00
or 4 weeks now, renovations have been non-stop here with dust flying everywhere and using tools that I didn't
3:05
even know existed. I have to say though, my team have been fantastic throughout all of this. So, thank you guys. And one
3:12
other thing that has really helped me throughout all of this chaos are my Raycon's Everyday Earbuds Classics.
3:17
Honestly, these things have been an absolute gamecher. Now, many of you who regularly watch Coffee House Crime know
3:23
that Raycon has sponsored us for a while now, including this video. And I have to say, they have yet again come through
3:29
for me. For example, when I'm deep in work mode, the active noise cancellation shuts out the rest of the world around
3:35
me, which helps me focus and get the task done. And when tradies are in the house, all I have to do is hold down
3:40
this button to change to awareness mode. And now I can hear both them and my music at the same time. So, I'm about I
3:46
think 4 hours into demolishing this garden now. Got some food in the microwave because I'm hungry and of
3:51
course quite exhausted. But one thing that I am not running out of battery on are these Raycon's Everyday Earbuds
3:57
Classics. Honestly, these things are great. They're going to last me today, tomorrow, and the day after cuz they've
4:02
got up to 32 hours of battery life. And what's even better is if they were to run out of battery, they've got this
4:08
really cool function where if I charge for 10 minutes, I get 90 minutes of play time back, which is just absolutely
4:14
fantastic. Honestly, I love these things. If you're stuck for a holiday gift this year, then these are such a
4:19
win for everyone. You can use them while studying, working out, while walking, or even to drown out your family's
4:25
conversations over Christmas dinner. The choice really is up to you. And right now, Raycon are offering up to 20% off

5:16
wait to show you the rest of this in a few weeks time. Anyway, let's get straight back to this video. Technology
5:22
is crazy recently and I have to admit I am kind of worried about where it's going. AI has been extremely disruptive
5:30
to every industry out there, especially the creative scene. It's quite sad to say, but YouTube feels like it's slowly
5:36
drifting away from its human touch, which to me is what YouTube is actually all about. In South Korea, phones are
5:44
not merely just devices. They're lifelines which are filled with communities, careers, and endless
5:50
entertainment. Entire industries and trends seem to rise and fall within days here. And some of Korea's social media
5:58
influences are categorically massive. In short, South Korea is a country that is
6:03
powered by tech, social media, money, and status. Something which The Squid Game seems to capture quite perfectly.
6:09
And sadly, even in the real world, sometimes those things all seem to combine into tragedy. And it's here in
6:16
this hyperconnected world that we meet Yun GR, a young woman and content creator who had found an audience of
6:23
several hundred,000 people. And little did she know that eventually one day one
6:29
of those would kill her. So who precisely was Yunji? Well, she was a
6:34
vibrant young woman in her 20s and the kind of creator who naturally loved to be on screen. Being honest with you
6:40
here, I don't know much about Korean social media, but GR seems to have that rare combination of charm and
6:47
effortlessness that apparently always made people stop scrolling. Her comedy skits, day in the life vlogs, and even
6:53
her own fashion videos all painted the image of someone who was warm, funny, and real. And it wasn't long before
7:00
hundreds of thousands of people began to tune in to her content for precisely that reason. In fact, at the time of her
7:07
death, GR had well over 300,000 followers across Tik Tok and all other
7:12
platforms. And it's clear in the months prior to her murder that her audience only seemed to keep growing. But back in
7:19
the real world for just a moment, her friends claimed that she was hardworking, ambitious, and had huge
7:25
dreams. And that's because GR didn't see herself as just another influencer, but as an aspiring actress instead, and
7:32
someone who was quietly trying to build a career that she hoped would one day take off from her social media. Now,
7:39
perhaps one of the most magnetic parts of her presence was how she treated all of her viewers. Because after watching a
7:45
few of her videos, it is clear that during her live streams, she would often chat to all of them as if she was
7:51
actually talking to a close friend. She would also routinely thank her supporters, joke around, answer
7:57
questions, and even share many vulnerable moments of her everyday life. In response, her fans would usually send
8:04
her virtual gifts like donations, which are commonly found in Korean social media. This included things like
8:11
colorful icons, stickers, animations, and even small financial donations. Most
8:17
of these donations were not unusual, and they certainly were not alarming. They were merely just small tokens sent by
8:23
those who liked to watch her content every day. However, as we all know too well in this industry, sometimes you
8:31
only need one single person in a crowd of thousands to turn admiration into
8:36
obsession. And hidden among her supporters was someone whose fixation was growing far beyond harmless
8:43
admiration. As G's popularity grew, so did her influence. And that's because in
8:48
South Korea, live streaming seems to have its own ecosystem of power. And of course, with the way that the internet
8:54
is becoming forever more integrated into society, it comes with its own fair share of fame, too. You see, much like
9:01
Western platforms like Kick and Twitch, viewers aren't necessarily just spectators. Some become donators and
9:08
others even investors. And on platforms like Africa TV, which is one that Yunj
9:13
was huge on, fans can even buy lots of virtual gifts such as the well-known star balloons. Now, in today's currency,
9:20
a star balloon is not even worth a dollar. But of course, if they are sent in the hundreds, thousands, or even tens
9:25
of thousands, they make a huge impact on the streamer. Now, of course, many people see this as currency. And there
9:31
are others that see it as status or perhaps even just a display of care. But in the wrong hands, it can be seen as
9:38
leverage. And unfortunately, that is something that GR would eventually experience. The platform's biggest
9:45
spenders can often spend more than 100 million1. That being the equivalent to roughly $70,000.
9:52
And as you can probably guess, these spenders are usually looking for a little bit more than just a flashy icon
9:59
beside their name. Instead, they are normally looking for influence and access. Kind of like a seat of power
10:06
close to their favorite streamer. And in the end, they sometimes become sponsors, friends, mentors, or maybe even
10:13
something a little murkier. To be honest with you, it's a system where generosity and control seem to sit very
10:20
uncomfortably close to each other. And this is often exploited by people for the most nefarious of reasons. And by
10:27
now you can likely guess that this is how GR would meet a man named Black Cat.
10:34
Now, at first this did seem to be a financial dream come true. Whenever GR went live, Black Cat was always there
10:41
and ready to flood her screen with both gifts and money. And these were no small sums either. In fact, sometimes those
10:49
numbers would be enough to make other streamers scream. You see, Black Hat was not merely supportive, but strategically
10:56
supportive, too. He was always present, always praising, and always throwing money towards her, but at the same time,
11:03
always had great ideas to improve her streaming. To Gia, this felt like much
11:09
more than just luck. It felt like someone big had finally noticed her potential, and so quite understandably,
11:16
she ran with it. Several months later and in late 2023, Blackat would finally
11:22
reveal himself to her. His real name was Mr. Choi, and he was a top-of-the-line
11:27
successful CEO who owned an IT company. After this, he often talked to GR about
11:32
business partnerships, investments, and even acting opportunities. He would also routinely compliment her talent and say
11:40
that she had a very bright future. And of course, for a young creator who was trying to break into this industry,
11:47
well, his attention felt euphoric. And so, GR agreed to finally meet Black Cat
11:53
because, well, she trusted him and she believed that he was someone that she could allow into her personal life.
11:59
However, as you likely have guessed by now, the man behind the name was not
12:04
actually who he claimed to be. While GR saw Black Cat as a wealthy tech executive, the truth was actually
12:12
extraordinarily different. And that's because Black Cat, who was legally known as Mr. Choy, was actually a man in his
12:19
50s who was drowning in financial ruin. I mean, not only was his home
12:24
repossessed, but he also had lone sharks after him, and his debts were spiraling into oblivion. In fact, his online
12:31
generosity towards GR, which totaled more than 100 million1, that being the equivalent of 68,000 US or 52,000,
12:41
did actually perfectly represent his behavior towards money. He seemed to have absolutely no concept or control
12:48
over cash flow and instead was merely just a compulsive spender. As Black Cat,
12:53
he was powerful, admired, and possibly even feared. But as Choi, well, he was
12:59
just poor and forgettable. And so, in the same way that GR chased her own dreams, he too chased the only thing
13:06
that made him feel better, that being his power over a beautiful young woman.
13:11
It is evident that GR became his escape, his fantasy, and his prized possession.
13:17
And soon, his obsession would demand far more than just a few digital gifts.
13:24
On the morning of September the 11th, 2024, Yun Ji headed out of her apartment
13:29
to create new content. She made her way to Yong Jong Island, an area in Inchen
13:34
which is well known for its ocean views. Outdoor live streams were something of a signature for GR, and so it was not
13:41
unusual that she broadcasted live to her fans. Viewers watched as she wandered along the coastline, and nothing about
13:48
her demeanor would suggest that anything was wrong. At approximately 300 p.m. that afternoon, her live stream then
13:55
ended, finishing as normal as she thanked her audience before signing off. However, unknown to her and everyone
14:02
else who was watching that live stream, it would sadly be the last time that the world would ever see her alive again
14:09
because not even 30 minutes later, she was gone. When GR didn't return home
14:15
later that evening, her family immediately began to worry. Not only was she expected to be back for dinner, but
14:22
nobody could actually reach her phone either. Friends also noticed that she had gone quiet, and her viewers also
14:28
wondered why her usual updates had stopped. Something was clearly wrong, and that feeling seemed to spread
14:34
quickly. GR had essentially vanished without a trace, and nobody knew where
14:40
she had gone to or why. Sadly, nobody knew just yet that she had actually been
14:45
abducted. And what they also didn't know was just how far she had been taken. The
14:50
distance between where she was last seen alive and where her body was later found would turn out to be more than 3 hours
14:57
away by car. Now to be fair, the authorities in began to investigate quite rapidly. However, by then it was
15:05
already too late because later that evening the authorities in Muju County received multiple reports of an
15:11
unresponsive woman who had tragically been found on the side of a remote mountain. Rescue teams made the climb
15:18
immediately expecting to maybe find an injured hiker, but instead what they found was her body. The scene was bleak.
15:26
Yunji lay in a secluded grassy clearing which was high above the winding mountain roads. A place that few people
15:33
ever actually stumble upon. With all things considered, it was actually remarkable that she had been found on
15:39
the same day she disappeared. But even still, nothing could be done to save
15:44
her. Sadly, G's body was covered with unmistakable signs of violence. This
15:50
included bruising on her face and her arms and a deep mark around her neck. An
15:55
autopsy later confirmed that she had died by asphyxiation, and forensic teams determined that the mountainside was not
16:02
the scene of the murder. It was merely just a dump site. By sunrise, the news of Yunji's death was all over social
16:09
media, and it even made national and international coverage, too. Of course, with many headlines focusing on how this
16:15
streamer had mysteriously been murdered. Fans were quite clearly devastated and
16:20
other content creators were both stunned and concerned for their own safety. And of course, everyone was asking two big
16:28
questions. Who killed Yun GR? And why? Well, you can probably guess who
16:33
already. And as investigators learned of the name Black Cat, it took them down this wild rabbit hole. One that was
16:40
filled with anger, obsession, and deceit.
16:46
As investigators began to piece things together, they initially started with Yun R's final live stream, of course,
16:52
giving them a time and a place that she was last seen alive. Detectives retraced her final movements, scoured the area,
17:00
and spoke to anyone who might have crossed paths with her. They were certain that whoever she had met, he or
17:06
she likely wasn't a stranger. There was no chance that she would have gotten to a car with someone that she never knew.
17:12
And when they eventually found surveillance footage, well, it only confirmed their beliefs. Now,
17:18
unfortunately, Korea is very secretive when it comes to murder investigations, so we don't actually have the footage at
17:25
hand. But what we do know is that security cameras near the live streaming site did capture GR in what looked like
17:31
a tense conversation with an older man. We can see a screenshot of him bowing next to her before then suddenly
17:38
dropping to his knees. Again, this was a man who was much older than her, kneeling in desperation at the feet of
17:45
this young streamer. His body language also seemed to be both frantic and panicked, not aggressive. And of course,
17:52
all of this led to the question, what precisely was he begging her for?
17:57
Whatever was going on, the two remained in contact because later on at 3:27
18:03
p.m., another camera captured just outside of her car, the same man grabbing her before then pulling her
18:09
back into her own car. Multiple witnesses then report seeing the car door being forced open and UGR being
18:16
slammed shut inside, therefore leading the officers to believe that this was the exact moment that she was abducted.
18:23
The identity of the kneeling man was basically confirmed to be Black Cat almost immediately. And so, no surprise,
18:30
the police then publicly named him as her prime suspect. As you can imagine,
18:35
that didn't go well with her fans because many of them immediately recognized Black Cat. I mean, he was
18:42
always gawking over her in her streams and was essentially her moderator at this point, too. With so much publicity
18:48
inside her own streams, Black Cat did not have the luxury of remaining anonymous anymore. Because at this point
18:54
in time, literally tens of thousands of people already knew who he was through
19:00
her. And so, as the authorities began their hunt for Black Cat, so did her own
19:05
army of viewers. And let's just say that the deeper investigators and the internet dug, the more they all realized
19:12
how horrifying his obsession would actually turn out to be.
19:17
So, you're probably wondering what kind of relationship GR and Black Cat had, which is valid. But to better understand
19:24
that, we must first talk about the kind of world they lived in. Some of you will already know where I'm going with this
19:29
because I've talked about it in so many videos before. But the internet can be a very alarming place, especially when it
19:36
comes to social media and parasocial relationships. GR openly shared her life
19:41
online, and that was part of her appeal. She was vulnerable, honest, authentic, and transparent. And that meant that
19:48
hundreds of thousands of people, including Black Cat, knew her extremely well. They would even create one-way
19:54
impressions of her and even fantasize about her. And of course, the sad reality behind all of this is that Yun
20:01
didn't even know the existence of many of these people. However, here is where it gets a little bit messy in South
20:06
Korea. Because unlike western platforms like Kick and Twitch, many of the biggest donators aren't merely just fans
20:13
anymore, but actually become investors to the streamer. And with that investment status comes access,
20:19
influence, and sometimes in the wrong hands, a false sense of entitlement. And
20:24
unfortunately, that is exactly where GR ended up with Black Cat. You see, Mr.
20:29
Choy was not actually satisfied with just sending her gifts and cheering her on. Instead, he wanted control. And so
20:36
he positioned himself as her mentor, tried to create a schedule for her and even pushed her to follow orders. Now
20:43
this issue actually extends far past Yun, but many top donators for these streamers in South Korea even ask these
20:49
influencers for tracking apps. So for whatever reason, they can be monitored at all times. And unfortunately, it's
20:56
believed that Blackat even managed to achieve this with UNGR. By mid 2024, she
21:02
finally had enough and told all of her friends that she wanted out. In all honesty, the donations didn't even
21:08
matter anymore. She just wanted her freedom back. Now, that decision should have been simple. But for a man like
21:14
Black Cat, losing her simply was not an option. And the moment that Junior told
21:19
him to back off, well, sadly, it was game over for her.
21:25
[Music] As investigators closed in on Blackat, the truth about him finally surfaced,
21:31
and obviously it was nothing like the image he had sold to GR. The fake wealthy CEO was a financially ruined man
21:38
in his 50s. And not only were his debts enormous and his home repossessed, but the money that he had spent on Yun GR's
21:45
live streams had put him even further into the red. Essentially, he had gambled his entire future on her
21:52
success. If GR were to actually become famous, then maybe he would ride the wave as her manager and business
21:59
partner. But of course, that was fantasy and never likely going to happen. With
22:04
well over 100 million one donated to her, his name was well known over all of
22:09
her streams. And for a man who was failing everywhere else, that kind of attention was quite clearly
22:15
intoxicating. At first, he had managed to charm GR into trusting him, pitching
22:20
himself as some kind of mentor or sponsor and maybe even a business partner. But soon enough, as she pushed
22:27
back, his mask would slip. And in the days before her murder, Black Cat's behavior collapsed. Multiple
22:33
surveillance cameras have already shown him confronting GR. But the messages that he sent her were apparently even
22:39
worse, with him grling, pleading, and begging her to stay. Yunji made it quite
22:44
clear that she wished to distance herself from him. But the thing is, if she left, then not only would his entire
22:51
fantasy collapse, but all hope he had would die, too. That final confrontation
22:56
with Mr. Choi would cost GR her life. When she walked back towards her car on
23:01
Yong Jong Island, she had no idea that Black Cat was actually already there waiting for her. As you may have
23:08
guessed, he had tracked her down using her live stream, which of course is something that we've already experienced
23:14
here on Coffee House Crime time and time again. As soon as he caught sight of GR,
23:19
Mr. Choy intercepted her. The two argued almost certainly about her decision to cut ties with him. And with GR standing
23:26
firm, that is when he dropped to his knees and begged her to stay. But when she refused to give in, that is when he
23:33
stopped pleading and his rage took over instead. As she turned away, Black Cat
23:38
lunged towards her. He grabbed her, forced her into her car, and then sped off with her held captive. Somewhere
23:45
during that drive, things would then turn fatal. Evidence later showed that GR was horrifically beaten with bruises
23:51
all over her face and body. Most of the violence seemed to happen inside her own car, and then in that confined space,
23:59
she was strangled. Whether it was with his hands or a ligature, we don't quite know. But what we do know is that this
24:05
lasted for several minutes, which was enough time for him to back down and stop. But of course, this was personal.
24:12
Black Cat had many moments to stop if he wished to do so. But with every waking second, he made the conscious decision
24:19
to carry on, and moments later, she was gone. Investigators would later find out that
24:26
Blackat had even brought a large suitcase with him, suggesting that this murder was actually premeditated. As for
24:33
disposing her body, Muju County is quiet, rural, and the kind of place that you mostly visit for hiking or skiing.
24:40
And so, realistically, this was the perfect place to hide a body. It was somewhere along that drive that he
24:47
stuffed her body into a large suitcase to avoid being spotted. He then placed it in the back of the car and continued
24:53
onwards. The trip would take more than 3 hours in total, allowing plenty of time
24:58
for panic, regret, or even fear to kick in. But Black Cat had a plan. And in an
25:04
effort to confuse investigators, he would even make eight separate stops along the way, pulling over in towns,
25:11
changing direction, and even pausing along highways. Anything to confuse the
25:16
timeline and the investigators. You see, Mr. Choy thought that he was outsmarting
25:22
the system, when in reality, all he was doing was making himself look even more
25:27
suspicious. Anyway, by nightfall he reached a secluded part of the mountain and then while under the cover of
25:34
darkness he dragged his suitcase from the road, opened it and then dumped her body into the grassy clearing. Not that
25:40
any of this would actually matter because of course only a few hours later her body was found. Mr. Choy likely
25:48
believed that this lonely patch of wilderness would probably hide what he had done, but thankfully he was wrong.
25:54
While he was still on the road back home, GR's family had already reported her missing. Police even had the
26:01
surveillance footage of her abduction right under their noses, and before he even reached his front door, he was
26:07
declared to be a suspect. By the time her body was found, officers were already tracking Black Cat's movements,
26:14
and only 12 hours later, he was found. Now, at first, he actually lied about
26:19
the murder and claimed that after arguing, the two then allegedly went their separate ways. But of course,
26:24
police officers knew this was bologoney. It's actually amazing how much information they had against this guy
26:30
within 24 hours because not only did they have hours of surveillance footage against this guy, but not one but eight
26:37
separate witnesses placing him and Yunji in the same car. And so when officers
26:42
told him this, he quite literally collapsed and confessed on the spot. And then came even more grim discoveries
26:49
because after officers started digging into his criminal profile, they realized that Mr. Choi has a long history of

violence. In fact, not even one year prior to Yunj's death, Mr. Choy was on trial for assaulting and abducting yet
27:03
another female streamer. So, this wasn't a one-off or a freak accident. This was
27:08
quite literally a pattern. The public were furious to learn that despite his previous conviction, he was free to do
27:14
the same thing yet again only one year later. The system had failed Yunia on a
27:20
cataclysmic level. And sadly, she had to pay the full price for it.
27:27
South Korea was stunned by his confession. News outlets called him the Black Cat Killer and a man who pretended
27:33
to be GR's guardian angel while slowly tightening the noose around her life. The public's anger was immediate, too.
27:40
They all saw a young woman who was chasing her dreams that had been betrayed by a man that she and the rest
27:46
of her community thought was safe. So, it is no surprise to learn that prosecutors announced that they would
27:52
pursue the harshest sentence possible. And this tragedy did not end in the courtroom either. It would also spark
27:59
another conversation around social media and the risk that streamers and influencers alike take to speak on their
28:05
own platforms. In fact, many other Korean streamers started sharing their own stories of obsessive fans and top
28:12
donors who all often seemed to push boundaries. And many more admitted that they had brushed off plenty of warnings
28:19
before, too. Even American streamer Asmin Gold issued his own blunt warning on X, saying, "If someone randomly gives
28:27
you a ton of money, block them." The kinds of people who donate 50k to a girl online, they're not stable. Now,
28:34
obviously, his words would hit a nerve for a few people, but they are also kind of true, and this case proves it. In
28:41
South Korea, calls for reform grew louder. Many viewers demanded better protections for creators, faster police
28:48
response to stalking, stricter monitoring of massive donations, and new digital safety laws that would protect
28:55
all creators alike. They would even ask for an increase in mental health resources for streamers who are dealing
29:01
with obsessive viewers. But in my opinion, I think they missed something here. What I think they should also
29:06
provide is mental health resources for anyone who donates large amounts of money because the truth is they too
29:13
likely need help. Moving to the legal proceedings of this case, by late 2025, Mr. Choy stood in
29:21
court to face a quite bluntly overwhelming amount of evidence. Behind that, he also faced a nation that was
29:28
united in both disgust and outrage. The prosecution sought life in prison. And
29:34
there was very little sympathy outside of his defense team. He became known as quote an obsessive lunatic and was the
29:41
subject of parasocial relationships and exploitation. At the time of recording this, Black Cat has not yet been found
29:47
guilty. Though it is kind of obvious that this is how it will end. I mean, he has already admitted his responsibility.
29:54
However, South Korea moves slowly with this kind of thing and so his trial is still ongoing. But once that verdict
30:01
lands, it is expected to be both severe and long-term. For now though, we are
30:06
still waiting for an end. Speaking of endings, we should remember Yun Jr. as a bright and creative person who was full
30:13
of ambition. And her story is a painful lesson that the greatest danger to public figures is not always coming from
30:20
hate. Sometimes it is coming from love that has been twisted into obsession.
30:29
Now, it is true that the legacy that she leaves behind might be a wake-up call for creators, fans, and general live
30:35
streaming platforms. Though, if I'm honest with you, I doubt it because platforms like Twitch and Kick really
30:42
don't care. However, this is a reminder to all of us with large and small followings alike that we really must
30:48
exercise caution because at the end of the day, we don't know who is behind that screen. And let's be honest, 90% of
30:55
the time their intentions aren't good. So, I guess we'll see what happens in this case and what happens to Black Cat.
31:01
Hopefully, he's put behind bars for life. And knowing South Korea, it likely will end up that way. But what are your
31:08
thoughts here? Anyway, folks, that's pretty much everything on this case as we stand today. Of course, with any more
31:14
information that comes out, I'll be sure to leave it below in a pinned comment. But until then, I suppose that's the end
