[Asia Economy Reporter Hana Na] As the child sex offender Jo Doo-soon is scheduled to be released next month, public anxiety is rising, and an elementary school student who maliciously exploited this situation on a YouTube broadcast to increase views is causing controversy.

Recently, a video titled "I am Jo Doo-soon's son. Don't mess with my dad" was uploaded on YouTube. The YouTuber who made a video defending Jo Doo-soon was an elementary school student.

Although Jo Doo-soon is known to have no children, the YouTuber claimed, "Actually, Jo Doo-soon is my father." The thumbnail of the video displayed the phrase "Long live Jo Doo-soon." He did not hesitate to utter harsh curses and said excitedly, "If you mess with Jo Doo-soon, I will shoot and kill you all."

He also addressed the critical public opinion and concerns about Jo Doo-soon by saying, "People who curse Jo Doo-soon, think carefully before you live, you xx."

The YouTuber added, "Now that Jo Doo-soon is being released, it is okay to visit and interview him, but do not insult or hit him."

Due to the provocative title and content, as well as the high level of profanity, the video surpassed 38,000 views in just two weeks.

Meanwhile, Jo Doo-soon, who was sentenced to 12 years in prison for kidnapping and sexually assaulting an elementary school student in front of a church in Danwon-gu in December 2008, causing serious injuries, is scheduled to be released on December 13.
