Model Han Hye-jin’s YouTube account disappeared after a suspicious crypto livestream sparked hacking concerns.
As of this morning, her channel―home to roughly 860,000 subscribers―shows a notice stating, “This account has been terminated for violating YouTube’s Community Guidelines.”
The takedown appears linked to a hack. Earlier, an out-of-nowhere livestream titled “Ripple (XRP): CEO Brad Garlinghouse’s Growth Forecast” suddenly ran on her channel, with comments disabled.
Fans quickly flagged the out-of-character crypto content―her channel typically shares day-in-the-life updates―and raised alarms about a possible security breach. The channel was subsequently removed. ESteem Entertainment, her agency, has not commented.
Celebrity YouTube hacks aren’t new: TAEMIN, IVE, and MONSTA X previously had their channels compromised before being restored.
