In an unsettling incident that unfolded live on the online streaming platform, Twitch, Korean streamer, may5w, was subjected to harassment during a broadcast while visiting Hong Kong.

The live stream on September 10 showed an individual, speculated to be an employee of Rajasthan Rifles, an Indian restaurant in Hong Kong, persistently harassing may5w. Despite her visible distress and consistent rejections of his advances, the individual continued to intrude upon the streamer's personal space. Throughout the terrifying ordeal, the brave streamer vehemently rejected the assailant's advances, continuously emphasizing that she was not alone.

As the audience watched in heightened worry, the situation disconcertingly escalated to a point where may5w had to scream for help.

The streamer's vocal resistance and firm declarations that she wasn't alone eventually led to the assailant releasing her. Another man, who was nearby, stepped in to check on the visibly shaken streamer.

This harrowing incident shocked viewers, and many fans are concerned about the streamer's well-being and mental health. It was a deeply distressing and jarring scene, bringing to light the grim realities many individuals unfortunately face, even when seemingly safe in the virtual gaze of a global audience. As of now, it remains unclear whether a police report has been filed or if any charges have been brought against the assailant.
