Ko Young-wook, a former member of the group Lula, fired a signal to return.

Ko Young-wook announced the opening of a YouTube channel on his SNS on the 5th. He led a shameful life. "I start YouTube rambling to get out of my lethargic daily life because I think I'm getting old badly at home whining at home."

Ko Young-wook's YouTube channel uploaded a video of his dog listening to his music.

This led to a barrage of criticism.

Ko Young-wook brought a 14-year-old middle school student A to his officetel in December 2010 to drink alcohol and raped her twice, and in 2012, he sexually assaulted a 19-year-old B who appeared on the same program as an aspiring model in the same way. In December of the same year, he approached C, who was 14 years old at the time, and molested her while hiding his identity.

For consecutive sex crimes against minors, Ko was sentenced to two and a half years in prison, five years of information disclosure, and three years of electronic anklets, and was permanently suspended from all broadcasters.

As such, he entered a path that cannot be forgiven just for being a sex offender for minors, and Ko Young-wook showed no signs of remorse.

In 2020, some SNS accounts were opened to communicate with fans I was forced to shut down. When the news of Lee Sang-min's debt cancellation of KRW 6.9 billion was reported in April this year, 'I became lethargic when someone who was not funny and sincere said they had paid off KRW 6.9 billion in debt, but life is not bad nowThere was a controversy over the shooting of Lee Sang-min by posting '.

Public anger grew even more at the appearance of Ko Young-wook, who seemed to blame others rather than repenting for his mistakes. However, Ko Young-wook fired a signal to return.

Netizens criticized, such as 'The life of a criminal, not a life of shame', 'What kind of YouTube is a sex offender trying to make money from?' and 'I haven't come to my senses yet'.
