On August 11th, viewers found that all videos on Son Yeon Jae’s channel were unavailable, replaced by a notice stating that the channel had been removed for “violating YouTube’s Community Guidelines.”
After various rumors circulated, the channel’s production team issued a statement on August 12th: “On the afternoon of August 11th, the channel was suddenly deleted. We immediately checked the situation and submitted an appeal to YouTube. Fortunately, after review, we officially confirmed there were no violations of Community Guidelines. The channel has now been fully restored.”
The production team affirmed their commitment to continuing content production on the reinstated channel.
