Controversial Reporter Kim Yong Ho Took a Swipe at 'Single's Inferno's' Song Ji Ah
It all started when the controversial reporter Kim Yong Ho from Garo Sero Institute posted a video where he talked about the popularity of the 25-year-old beauty content creator.
The famous Youtuber, who recently came out of his retirement, revealed on his video that right before she appeared on Netflix's reality dating show, he had already received intel about her identity.
"It was around the time when Song Ji A had 100,000 subscribers that I started receiving intel about her. Now, she has around 2 million and is becoming something closer to a celebrity," he said as obtained by Koreaboo.
As some viewers and fans would know, Song Ji Ah is a content creator on YouTube who often posts beauty and lifestyle videos.
However, her stint in "Single's Inferno" skyrocketed her fame, making her YouTube channel rake millions of followers as well as her Instagram.
As of this writing Song Ji Ah's YouTube garnered 1.91 million subscribers while her Instagram has 3.7 million followers.
As the controversial reporter continues, he also took a swipe at Song Ji Ah's father, naming him as the center of the issue.
Garo Sero Institute's Kim Yong Ho pointed out that the public has a false perception about her father and his identity.
According to his video, fans knew that he works as a dentist, but it turned out that it was a lie.
"He is supposedly a dentist-but her dad is not a dentist. I know what Song Ji A's father really does for work. I also know how Song Ji A's father raised his daughter," he said.
Moreover, he also explained that the reality star might say that she never mentioned her father being a dentist, but Kim Yong Ho highlighted that being quiet and hiding his real job "is the same as lying."

"I believe that she or her agency will watch this video. I want her to honestly confess it all," he added.
The 25-year-old beauty catapults to fame after being the fan favorite in Netflix's "Single's Inferno."
