As a long-time observer of the streaming world, I have to say that the tumultuous journey of Johnny Somali has been nothing short of captivating, albeit for all the wrong reasons. From his early days terrorizing Japan and Israel on Kick, to his infamous run-ins with the authorities in South Korea, this man has managed to consistently make headlines.
Streamer Johnny Somali faces the possibility of being imprisoned for more than a decade, as he has been prohibited from departing South Korea following accusations of assault and drug offenses. If found guilty, these charges could lead to his incarceration.
Beginning in 2023, Johnny Somali’s destructive rule in the digital streaming sphere commenced. His acts of aggression targeted both Japan and Israel through his broadcasts on Kick, leading to numerous conflicts with law enforcement due to these disruptive actions.
In a YouTube video, PewDiePie criticized the creator, claiming he had “destroyed” Japan. This criticism led Somali to warn PewDiePie about a potential lawsuit, asserting that PewDiePie’s language was harmful and defamatory by labeling him as a terrorist.
In September 2024, Somali ventured to South Korea where he carried on with his mischievous behavior. Not only was he removed from a subway and made quite a commotion in a nearby store, but he also ignited controversy by affectionately kissing the Peace Statue – a memorial for victims of sexual enslavement during war.
Streamer John Somali suffered an assault in South Korea at the hands of a Korean YouTuber, leaving him shocked and upset. The phrase “Hey Boy, are you crazy Boy” was allegedly used during the altercation. 😨😓

Over time, these occurrences led South Koreans to take direct action against him, as some physically attacked him. A popular Korean YouTuber even offered a reward of approximately $770 for any information leading to his location, in order to continue the assaults.
Currently, due to investigations into allegations of assault and drug use, the streamer who was previously banned from Kick is unable to travel outside of South Korea, despite his wishes. This situation arises because he’s being charged for these offenses. (Yahoo News reports this information.)
In South Korea, the penalties for drug use are quite severe. If someone is found with illegal drugs or using them, they could face imprisonment for up to ten years or be fined as much as 100 million won, which is roughly equivalent to $72,500 USD. On the other hand, assault can lead to a maximum punishment of two years in prison or a fine of 5 million won, or around $3,600 USD.
If the situation leads to a trial, it would mark Somali’s second court appearance in an Asian nation, following his trial in Japan. After his Japanese court case, Somali confessed that he had lied to the judge, stating that he wasn’t earning money through streaming and was instead producing “documentaries.
