YouTuber Lee Soo-nal (real name Jeong Yi-soo), who is active as a KBS reporter for the 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar, was shocked by the intrusion of the crowd while broadcasting live locally.
On the 21st, Lee Soo-nal posted on his YouTube channel, “I got hit on my shoulder during the live broadcast of the World Cup. He posted a video titled ‘The biggest broadcasting accident ever’.
In the released video, Lee Soo-nal started reporting at the Albaite Stadium (stadium) in Alcor, Qatar on the 20th (Korean time) when the opening ceremony was held to convey the local atmosphere.
Lee Soo-nal, who was preparing for a live broadcast at the time, was taken aback by a group of foreigners who suddenly approached. As they sang, they approached Lee Soo-nal, and at last a man put his hand on Lee Soo-nal’s shoulder and made a so-called ‘bad hand’.
Nevertheless, Lee Soo-nal steadfastly showed a professional appearance, saying, “Now I am at the part-time stadium where the opening ceremony is held. Since it is the place to announce the start of the tournament, the atmosphere at the site is very hot.”

At this time, another man appeared with a cigarette in his mouth, covered the camera, and forced Lee Soo-nal to hold up his country’s flag. They did not budge even when restrained, and Lee Soo-nal removed the national flag with one hand and said, “I can feel the word ‘festival of the world’.”
Then, the man in question hit Lee Soo-nal hard on the shoulder, probably because he was offended by Lee Soo-nal’s attitude. Even as Lee Soo-nal was pushed behind him, he calmly continued his report, saying, “The heat is really hot.”
Lee Soo-nal, who finished the live broadcast safely in a cluttered environment, said, “The scene is a series of variables. I was really surprised. I was confused about what to do when I suddenly hit the drums and put my arms around my shoulders.” Then, he smiled and said, “It’s not easy,” and caught up with his surprised mind.
He added, “In fact, people came unexpectedly and unexpectedly. This was the only thing I could control. An unexpected situation happened, but I said something steadfastly.”
Netizens who watched the video commented, “I’m watching it live, so I’m worried. I’m glad I didn’t get hurt too badly”, “I’m angry at the bad manners even getting shoved in the shoulder by a bad hand”, “No matter how much it’s a cultural difference, the level is too low”, “Broadcaster reporting on the spot. I have to be careful”, “I was worried that something might happen while watching”, “I think I should attach a bodyguard”, etc.
