British YouTuber Josh Carrott, known as the Korean Englishman on YouTube, has removed singer-songwriter Jung Joon-young's video from his online video channel after allegations of Jung's sex video filming and distribution allegations were reported Monday.

Carrott posted the video of himself learning the Korean drinking culture from Jung, whom he has known for 15 years.


Carrott explained on his YouTube
channel on Wednesday, "I have decided it would be wrong to leave Jung Joon-young's video public, amid the allegation."

He added that he was in no way linked to the scandal.

Carrott is a well-known British YouTuber with more than 3 million subscribers. He appeared on tvN's Korean variety show "Salty Tour" as Jung's best friend.
