YouTuber “Wi-acle” Park Wi sparked controversy after releasing CCTV footage of his wheelchair fall incident on a KTX train, later deleting the video and issuing an apology. Despite Park Wi’s apology, the controversy persists, with cyberbullying comments now appearing on his wife Song Ji-eun’s social media accounts.
On the 21st, Park Wi uploaded a video titled “Reason for Releasing CCTV Footage” to his YouTube channel “Wi-acle.” In the video, he explained that he suffered an accident while disembarking after using KTX for a lecture on the 14th. He described how, while descending a ramp in his wheelchair, the wheel caught on a staff member’s foot, causing him to be thrown from the wheelchair and fall to the floor.
The accompanying CCTV footage captured the moment Park Wi fell from his wheelchair while going down the ramp. Recalling the incident, he said, “Suddenly, I saw a pair of feet right in front of me. My wheelchair got caught on those feet, and my body was thrown off, landing on the floor.” He added, “Honestly, I was extremely angry. I was furious, disoriented, and overwhelmed with thoughts, yet I was already lying on the ground. It was an incredibly dizzying situation.”
Park Wi also revealed that he felt deep fear because, given his near-total loss of sensation in his lower body, it would be difficult to assess injuries immediately after the accident. He stated, “I’ve never fallen from such a height in 12 years. What’s even more terrifying is that I might not realize if I have fractures or cracks due to my lack of sensation.”
He further expressed, “Although the staff member did not intentionally cause harm, I was still angry simply because they placed their foot on the ramp.” However, he urged people to refrain from directing criticism at specific individuals, explaining that the video was released to highlight the need for safety improvements, as a single mistake could lead to serious accidents.
However, following the release of the footage, some critics argued that Park Wi’s approach was excessive. They pointed out that even though the public service worker had apologized, releasing the CCTV footage and appearing to target an individual seemed overly aggressive.
In response, Park Wi deleted the CCTV video and posted an apology statement. He said, “I failed to consider the staff member’s perspective, who did their best to assist me at the scene and sincerely apologized.” He continued, “I viewed the mistake made during efforts to better help me only negatively. My delivery was immature, and my thinking was short-sighted. I apologize to everyone who worked hard at the scene.” Park Wi added, “I also deeply apologize to all viewers who watched the video. I will take your advice seriously and approach content creation with a more mature attitude. Taking this incident as a lesson, I will act more cautiously and responsibly in all matters. Once again, I sincerely apologize.”
Nevertheless, public outrage continues. Critics have pointed out that Park Wi obtained the CCTV footage under questionable circumstances and uploaded a video that appeared to target an individual despite the accident being unintentional after receiving help.
Meanwhile, on the 22nd, comments began appearing on wife Song Ji-eun’s social media. Some netizens left remarks such as “My husband gives me chills” and “Stop pretending to be a victim” on posts featuring photos of Park Wi and Song Ji-eun.
