There were several YouTubers who were criticized for parodying Woo Young Woo from the popular series 'Extraordinary Attorney Woo.' While one YouTuber acted out the different traits of a person who is "completely absorbed" into the drama, another YouTuber imitated Woo Young Woo's way of speech throughout the whole video.

The YouTuber of the latter was heavily criticized as she was accused of mimicking the way of speech that is actually seen among some individuals with an autism spectrum disorder. After the criticism, the YouTubers uploaded an apology and took down their videos.

However, on July 21, one YouTube channel named Wowcow, who was seen mimicking Woo Young Woo's way of speech, posted a lengthy statement on the YouTube community explaining their legal team will be taking legal action. Wowcow wrote, "We have 60,000 subscribers now. We always planned a 'Thank you event' every time we exceeded another 10,000 but it's a pity it would be difficult this time." The YouTuber continued to write, "There was an overwhelming number of malicious comments, and more than five pages of articles about the controversy, so we were really afraid we would be outcasted. But we endured because we feared that we would be succumbing to the violence and the terror if we took down the video and apologized."

Wowcow then explained they did not create content that mocked individuals with the autism spectrum disorder. The YouTuber wrote, "We did not make content mocking people with an autism spectrum disorder. At first, we were prepared for the number of subscribers to drop but we reached 60,000. I want to thank our subscribers and my wife."

Wowcow continued to write, "This was the first time I hired a lawyer in my life. I will take legal action against malicious comments that cross the line. I have nothing else I do during the day so all I do is look for malicious comments." 

The YouTuber emphasized, "I think that all content in the world has positive influences and negative risks. However, creators make videos when there is a positive influence through their videos. This is the value of being a creator." He finally concluded by saying, "I do not consider the 'Woo Young Woo' parody video as content that is derogatory toward autism. If you think otherwise, don't watch our videos. I apologize to those who were unintentionally hurt through that video."
