'The late Seo Se-won  The Devil?' Angered Seo Dong-ju 'Slandering Parents' YouTube Complaint
Lawyer and broadcaster Seo Dong-ju has taken legal action against YouTubers who posted content that slanders themselves and their parents. Seo Dong-ju is the daughter of the late comedian Seo Se-won and model-turned-TV Seo Jung-hee.

According to the police on the 16th, the Seongdong Police Station in Seoul received a complaint from Seo Dong-ju against the owner of a YouTube channel for defamation and launched an investigation.

On the 15th, Seo Dong-ju wrote on Instagram, "'I've been getting calls from the morning to watch the video, so I've done something.'" and was puzzled, "'I'm going to kill myself to a well-off person, talk about my sick mother, and say I'm a deceased devil.'"

He then said "You're a human being without conscience" and "Yeonggeom? What's the difference between a criminal who scams people who want to make money while saying everything is wrong?" Also "Okay, let's go all the way. You've got the wrong one."

Seo Dong-ju then edited and posted a photo of a complaint taken at the Seongdong Police Station in Seoul along with a video capture screen of a YouTuber.

The YouTube channel he mentioned is a famous influencer channel with more than 450,000 subscribers. Shamanism mainly releases content that shows the fortune of celebrities. Seo Dong-ju, the daughter, seems to have taken legal action when she criticized her parents for looking ahead to the past and future of celebrities. Videos about Seo Dong-ju, the late Seo Se-won, and Seo Jeong-hee are currently deleted from the channel.

In April, Seo Dong-ju said on the YouTube channel 'Ita Instructor Seo Dong-ju' that he was collecting data to sue the haters. He said "I don't want to talk about my external parts, plastic surgery, bikinis, etc."But I want to punish my parents when I see a text with cursing about them. We had a big fight. We haven't reached an agreement."

Meanwhile, Seo Dong-ju is on Netflix 'Devils Plan' and MBN entertainment 'Light Airplane Healing Adventure - It's Up! He appeared in Captain Kim' and so on. Recently, he appeared on Channel A 'Great Birth' and JTBC 'Departing Camp 'New Refreshing'.
