YouTuber Ai Uehara (32), a former Japanese adult film (AV) actress, visited Seodaemun Prison in Korea and criticized Japanese atrocities, but eventually deleted the video after criticism arose in her home country.
On the 1st, Uehara announced on the community bulletin board of the Korean YouTube channel ‘Praise Uehara’, “The video ‘Visit to Seodaemun Prison’, which was uploaded as the first video, has been made private.”
He added, “I cannot tell you in detail about the reason (for the non-disclosure), but I hope that Korean subscribers will understand with an open mind.”
Previously, Uehara posted his first video of visiting Seodaemun Prison last month.
The video shows Uehara touring the Seodaemun Prison history museum.
He explained the reason for his visit by saying, “My Japanese friends and Japanese broadcasts tell me to go here when I go to Korea,” and “I came here for a tour because I wanted to see it because it is a place with history.”
After hearing the explanation that this was a place where independence activists were imprisoned during the Japanese colonial period, Uehara showed curiosity about cases in which the Japanese oppressed our independence movement, such as the Korean Language Society incident. I also toured the Seodaemun Prison execution site and prison. In particular, Uehara, who was looking at photos of independence activists who ended their lives here, said he was ‘sad’ after hearing the description of Yu Gwan-sun, who died in prison at the age of 17.
After completing the tour, Uehara said, “It hurts my heart because it was so cruel. He responded, “I want to beat up the Japanese.” He continued, “I am very grateful that Korea is what it is today thanks to the independence activists.”
Uehara said, “I don’t know if the bad image of Japan still remains among Koreans, but these are peaceful times, so I hope that our relationship will improve.” He added, “After coming here, I thought, let’s cherish these times.”
However, Uehara’s remarks in the video continued to be criticized by Japanese netizens.
Japanese netizens poured out negative comments such as “I know you want to make money, but be careful what you say,” “Study history,” “Don’t come to Japan,” and “Just live in Korea.”
In response, Uehara said, “We apologize for causing concern to fans and officials. I started thinking that I should study in a variety of ways in the future. “I will work hard in the future, so please support me,” he apologized.
This appears to be the reason why the video was made private.
Uehara, who retired from the AV industry in 2016, has been active through YouTube and social media (SNS). Uehara, who has shown interest in Korean culture through hot chicken fried noodles mukbang and K-pop dance challenge videos, opened the Korean YouTube channel ‘Praise Uehara’ on the 8th and has been uploading videos of his visit to Korea.
