Therefore, I think I should stop before things get worse. Until I gain back my confidence, I don’t think I can make videos anymore.”
Referring to the celebrities whom he made the videos of, he said, “I think I was too immersed in stabbing others with a knife. I think I had stained the knife with too much blood and received too many criticisms.”
He added, “At first, I started everything alone, so I thought I could make harsh statements. After that, everything went out of control, and many people sued me. I attended many trials, and the court told me that I had crossed the line.”
