Ghanaian broadcaster Sam Okyere reported that Korea has never left despite controversies such as disparaging Asians.

Recently, a video of the guest Sam Okyere episode was released on the YouTube channel "K-Story."

On this day, Sam Okyere said, "Many people wondered, 'Did Sam Okyere leave Korea?' Nevertheless, I endured it well. Don't other people go back because they don't want to worry about it. Still, he was asked why he decided to stay (in Korea)."

In response, Sam Okyere said, "Honestly, I have nowhere to go," and added, "I have become an adult in Korea. I came when I was 19 and learned a lot. It was big here. That's why (Korea) is too home to go anywhere else. Korea is my home."

"Where would you go if you told me to go out of the house?" There is nowhere to go. Everyone knows it. He said, "When I leave the house, I have a lot of love for Korea," adding, "First of all, I have too much affection for Korea. As I thought a lot about it over the past five years, I realized that my affection was really deep. I really like and love Korea. Now I think almost like a Korean," he said.

Meanwhile, Sam Okyere has been at the center of controversy since he raised racism in connection with a parody of Uijeongbu High School students' graduation photos of "Kwanjjak Boys" in 2020.

At that time, Sam Okyere caused controversy over the use of K-pop hashtags and criticism of the Korean education system in the course of student criticism. In the process, gestures of disparaging Asians in the past were re-examined and faced headwinds.

Since then, Sam Okyere's past SNS remarks have been made public, leading to a controversy over sexual harassment. In particular, criticism intensified as allegations arose that he agreed to racist perceptions of black people by sympathizing with the sexual harassment expression toward actress Park Eun-hye, "Once you go to a black person, you will not come back."

Eventually, Sam Okyere dropped out of the MBC Everyone entertainment program "Korean Foreigners," which was a regular appearance. Then, three years later, in 2023, he returned to Channel S 'Elder Sisters of Advance'.
