CHOI SUHWAN
Social media is not safe, whether it’s for major or up-and-coming artists.
While young singer CHOI SUHWAN recently celebrated reaching 100,000 YouTube subscribers on June 6,
“hackers” attempted to use his YouTube channel to spread information. Here’s a message released yesterday by his agency, Lynna Entertainment.
Message from Lynna Entertainment:
“Hello, this is Lynna Entertainment.
First, we apologize for having to share some bad news. On the evening of June 10, we discovered that our official Google email address had been hacked.
Then, during the night of June 11, a cryptocurrency livestream, unrelated to the direction of our channel, was streamed on our official YouTube channel by the hackers, which likely led to the deletion of our account for violating the rules.
We requested recovery through Google’s customer service, but due to the time it takes, we had no choice but to create a backup YouTube channel and change our email address.
For any inquiries from now on, please contact us at lynnaent.official@gmail.com, and we also ask that you follow our backup channel at https://www.youtube.com/@Choisuhwanofficial. Additionally, the X account (@Swanta_TV) linked to the old Google email is also inaccessible, so until the issue is resolved, we will post updates on the account x.com/lynna_ent.”
This morning, June 12, both the YouTube channel and X account are accessible again, and we are waiting for confirmation from the agency for the official word.
In the meantime, you can find singer CHOI SUHWAN performing during busking events around Seoul, and soon, he will also be performing in Tajikistan for the 2025 KOREA FESTIVAL.
