It’s a sad reality that many sexual offenders could still have a platform despite being found guilty of their crimes. Recently, the return of a disgraced South Korean influencer sparked outrage amongst netizens.

South Korean influencer Seo Won Jeong (원정맨), known by his TikTok account @/ox_zung, was once very popular, with over 55 million followers on the video platform alone. However, in 2023, he stopped posting online, seemingly going on hiatus. Several months later, reports emerged that Seo Won Jeong was under investigation for his involvement in a sexual assault case. He was also accused of filming the assault.

In April 2025, news reports revealed that Seo Won Jeong was sentenced to more than three years in prison. However, a second trial reduced his sentence, due to lack of evidence, to one year and six months in jail, suspended for two years. The TikToker also shared an apology post in May 2025, seemingly admitting to the allegations. Despite the sentencing and his admittance, Seo Won Jeong recently returned to posting videos.

On 3rd July (Thursday), the social media personality shared a video of him cleaning his home before facing the camera and bowing. He then shared another video, returning to his usual comedy content. Unsurprisingly, this move sparked outrage from netizens. Many expressed anger at Seo Won Jeong for brazenly returning to social media after his sexual assault trial. Some even called him shameless for continuing his influencer career despite being charged with a serious crime.

However, some fans showed support for the TikToker’s return. Some comments even said they look forward to seeing more postings from Seo Won Jeong. His recent videos are also gaining traction, with his most recent video, posted on 4th July 2025 (Friday), gaining over 300,000 views in just 12 hours. It’s also worth noting that the influencer’s TikTok follower count is still in the 50 million range despite his months-long hiatus.

Netizens are calling for TikTok users to boycott and stop providing a platform for Seo Won Jeong, arguing he won’t feel remorseful for his actions if he continues to be popular. What are your thoughts on this?

Here’s a look at Seo Won Jeong’s recent post:
