YouTuber Park Wi faced criticism after releasing CCTV footage showing an incident where he fell while disembarking from a KTX train, and a mass exodus of subscribers from his YouTube channel has been observed.

As of noon on the 24th, the number of subscribers to Park Wi's YouTube channel 'WeRacle WERACLE' stood at approximately 995,000. Originally, Park Wi was a YouTuber with 1 million subscribers, but recent controversy has caused his subscriber count to drop below 1 million.

On the 21st, Park Wi released CCTV footage on his 'WeRacle' channel showing himself being knocked off balance by the foot of a public service worker while disembarking from a KTX train.

He stated, "The public service worker did not intend to do so, but I was angry that they placed their foot on the ramp," and added, "Of course, they apologized politely to me, but I could not accept it at first."

Regarding his decision to release the CCTV footage, he explained, "There is still a need for improvements in unsafe environments."

However, after releasing the video, Park Wi faced backlash. Despite the worker apologizing politely on-site, criticism poured out that Park Wi, a famous YouTuber with 1 million subscribers, went too far by releasing CCTV footage and publicly criticizing the public service worker. In response, Park Wi posted a brief apology statement saying, "I failed to consider the position of the worker who did their best to help me at the scene when the incident occurred and apologized politely," and deleted the controversial post.

Despite Park Wi's apology, subscribers are turning away in large numbers. Amidst the fierce backlash, attention is now focused on Park Wi's future actions.
