[Asia Economy Intern Reporter Park Hee-eun] Popular YouTuber Daedoseogwan has filed a lawsuit against some netizens who made sexually insulting and derogatory remarks.

Daedoseogwan (real name Na Dong-hyun), a YouTuber with 1.79 million subscribers, revealed this fact on the 13th through his channel 'Daedoseogwan TV' in a video titled "I sued MapleStory's bad-mannered XX. How to sue for in-game insults."

In the video, he said, "The incident occurred on January 24. I received several malicious comments during a streaming session of Nexon's popular game 'MapleStory.'"

Some 'Ilbe' (short for Ilgan Best users) users continuously followed him in the game and left malicious comments, which included sexual insults not only toward Yumdang but also his young son, as well as derogatory remarks about the Sewol ferry disaster.

In response, Daedoseogwan warned, "Why doesn't Nexon manage this kind of thing? I will take it to a lawsuit."

Subsequently, on the 6th, Daedoseogwan submitted a complaint together with lawyer Eom Tae-seop from the law firm Okims. The case is reportedly under review by the Women's and Youth Division.

Meanwhile, the production team of 'Workman' had previously sparked controversy for using terms reminiscent of Ilbe.
