The Great Quarantine Caper: Did Korean Englishman REALLY Bite the Dust?
Hold onto your kimchi pancakes, folks, because the internet is swirling with rumors wilder than a bulgogi hangover. Apparently, the beloved YouTube channel "Korean Englishman" has suffered a tragic loss – but fear not, fans of British blokes bewildered by Korean customs, it's not quite as dramatic as it sounds!

A Birthday Bash Gone Bust: A Recipe for Disaster?
Let's rewind the kimchi clock a bit. Back in the before times (aka 2020, when quarantine seemed like a distant memory), Josh Carrott, the Englishman half of the duo, found himself in a bit of a pickle. It was his wife Gabie's birthday, and what's a birthday without, well, breaking the rules a little? They decided to have some friends drop off birthday gifts, a sweet gesture, right? Wrong. Apparently, "dropping off" turned into a full-blown, maskless, quarantine-violating shindig.
The internet, ever the watchful internet grandma, was not amused. Korean netizens went full-on kimchi slap, unleashing a fury hotter than gochujang. Headlines screamed, social media flamed, and everyone with an internet connection seemed to have an opinion.
Tip: Use this post as a starting point for exploration.
Did the Korean Englishman Channel Get Cancelled?
Did Josh spontaneously combust from netizen rage? Did he flee the country disguised as a giant kimchi dumpling? Thankfully, the answer is a resounding NO. There were apologies, a temporary channel hiatus, and a whole lot of self-reflection. But fear not, the Korean Englishman is still very much alive and kicking (and hopefully following quarantine guidelines).
These days, they're back on YouTube, albeit a little wiser (and hopefully with a better understanding of Korean quarantine rules).
QuickTip: Don’t skim too fast — depth matters.
