YouTuber Tzuyang (2.92 million subscribers) was embroiled in controversy over racism in the Philippines when he played the character 'Nitung' in a broadcast with comedian Jiyoung Kim.
In the video in question, Tzu Yang hosts a Vietnamese food mukbang with Jiyoung Kim and had Jiyoung Kim dress up as her character 'Nitung', a female immigrant who married a Filipino woman.
Jiyoung Kim portrayed Filipino women stereotypically by portraying her 'Nitung' character with her slurred speech and exaggerated behavior.
Creators must produce content with a sense of social responsibility, and viewers must also maintain a critical perspective and be wary of racist content.
