==Controversy==
Starting in 2020, she's been controversial online for her apparent animal abuse in her videos. While it is traditional to eat octopus alive in Korean culturehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JYDkzqCfJzg, she's criticized for eating a variety of animals while also inflicting pain on them. One example is a video where she pours salt inside a tray of mudfish, which makes them rive around and slowly die, while Ssoyoung sounds frightened.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aKed50rg_TY She's also been criticized for her scared reactions, as some have called them fake since she might be used to water and sea creatures by now. This has been seen to make the videos more comedic, which she's also been criticized for.
She's been bashed by multiple YouTubers, vegans, and other animal activists to shut her channel down, such as h3h3productions, penguinz0, and SomeOrdinaryGamers. However, YouTube has stated that her videos don't violate their guidelines. A representative for the channel spoke with Insider saying that Ssoyoung's channel is meant to bring awareness of different foods and cultures while also providing entertainment. They also said she doesn't promote animal abuse.https://www.insider.com/youtuber-ssoyoung-live-squid-octopus-video-h3h3-mukbang-2020-4 Although YouTube and this representative have been criticized as well. In her recent videos, she still shows off animals and eating them, but she'll skip the killing process and get to eating them.
