#401: American Streamer Plays “I Want To S*x Children” Audio At Korean Children's Park
Thu, 7 Nov 2024
It’s the middle of the day in South Korea. Koreans are at work, grabbing lunch, picking up their kids from school, minding their own business. Amongst them is an American man named Ramsey- who clearly does not look like he’s up to any good. He’s live-streaming on his phone while glancing from side to side. When he feels the coast is clear he takes out his portable speaker… and starts playing… Diddy’s song “Last Night.”He runs in front of the camera, takes off his shirt, and starts pouring baby oil down his torso. He starts dancing on the female figure in front of him. Sexually rubbing his body on her frame. This video will go viral in South Korea. And a new game will start - hunting Ramsey. Objective of the game?Hunt Ramsey. Find Ramsey. Punch Ramsey.Because the female figure he tried smothering in baby oil is not any random statue. It is the statue representing the hundreds of thousands of young girls who were taken, enslaved, and SA’d dozens of times per day for years during the war.
Chapter 1: What incident sparked outrage in South Korea?
It's the middle of the day in South Korea. South Koreans are busy. They're rushing to their next place. They're heading to work. They're grabbing lunch. They're picking up the kids from school. Everybody's minding their own business, except there's this one man, an American guy named Ramsey. He's looking side to side, Maybe it's hindsight. It just appears that he's up to no good.
He's live streaming on his phone. And eventually when he puts his backpack, he puts his phone down and props it up. The live stream viewers can see this female figure in front of Ramsey. And he pulls out his portable speaker and he just starts blasting a song in the middle of a public street in broad daylight. The lyrics of the song go, last night, I couldn't even get an answer.
I tried to call, but my pride wouldn't let me dial. It's a song titled Last Night by Diddy, P. Diddy, Puff Daddy, whatever you want to call him. The American man, Ramsey, he starts slowly walking up to the figure of that woman. And he starts stripping off his shirt until he's shirtless in the middle of the street, grabbing a bottle of baby oil. And he just starts smearing it all over.
All over his chest, in broad daylight, in the middle of Seoul, a whole crowd of Koreans form. Passerbys. He's trying to rub his butt up against the female figure. He's trying to dance all up on this female figure, rubbing baby oil onto her. And the Koreans are screaming at him in Korean. And he's screaming back in English. He doesn't stop dancing. He just screams back.
Chapter 2: Who is Ramsey and what did he do?
And it seems like he's screaming more towards his live streaming audience. I think these people are about to call the police on me. but for what for what what did i do wrong i'm just trying to show her love because of what i'm trying to show my love to her like show the woman love like like what pete did he always says yeah show some love Yeah, well, I think KVD said that mainly, but yes. Yes.
So eventually the crowd becomes very angry that he stops dancing with the figure of the woman. He puts his shirt back on and he sits down. This is all live streamed and all of it would go viral in South Korea, making it to the news, making it to a congressional hearing, making him the number one target for all South Koreans.
because the figure that he's rubbing baby oil on whilst playing Diddy's songs, I mean, the implication being very clear there, the woman that he's doing this to is a bronze statue. She is there to memorialize the hundreds of thousands of girls and women that were essayed and tortured during the war.
Girls and women that were essayed 40 to 60 times per day for years for the quote-unquote comfort of soldiers. This video will go viral and Ramsey will be hunted on the streets of South Korea. By day 35 in South Korea, Ramsey will have been beaten on the streets multiple times with busted eyebrows, busted lips. And the very interesting part is he's not free to leave South Korea.
The authorities have confiscated his passport. They're opening an investigation into him. He's stuck in South Korea in a nation where he is being hunted for sport. This is the story of Ramzi Khalid Ismail, otherwise known as Johnny Somali, the most hated American guy in South Korea. Thank you so much. As always, full show notes are available at ronmangopodcast.com.
Some quick disclaimers for today's case. There's mentions of SA, sex trafficking, sex slavery, and if that's too heavy, please take care. Stay safe. And for general disclaimers, I want to be very clear that any discussions about specific countries...
Their history or mentions of wrongdoings is not an effort to degrade their people nor their culture, just like how Americans do not want to be identified by our politicians' decisions or our government's decisions, much of which we strongly oppose.
The same goes for every other country, nor is it meant to single out any specific region because historically, I think every single region and country has a past that they are not proud of and should not be proud of. And one last brief note, the American streamer goes by the name Johnny Somali.
His Wikipedia page states that he's half Somali, but he has done a video where he states that he's half Ethiopian and Yemeni. It does not appear that he's Somali. And regardless if he's Somali or not, many Somalis are frustrated that he's putting Somali as his username because it's making them look bad. And it's not even just like a small group of TikTokers being like, he look at this guy.

Chapter 3: Why did Ramsey become a target in South Korea?
And then he comes and decks Ramsey in the face. Ramsey, by the way, was not even trying to hide, was not trying to run, was not trying to help his friend Gino, was not trying to fight back. Ramsey just waits to get punched in the face. Ramsey then drops his phone and you hear someone donate to the live stream as well. But people start donating and they decide to do the text to speech donation.
So instead of the Mario coin sound effect, you get an automated voice saying Hiroshima Nagasaki, Hiroshima Nagasaki, Hiroshima Nagasaki while he's out cold. And then you just hear the claps of people nearby. They're clapping that these two were just punched in the face. Netizens have since commented on this video stating, dude, God bless that guy. Hit him so hard, Mario got a coin.
Another comment reads, as a Japanese person, I cannot describe how grateful I am to this guy. Violence is bad, but there is always an exception. I feel great. Another comment reads, the fact that some native Japanese people clapped when these guys got decked says a lot. If you know, considering how public situations are usually treated here. But what do you expect from this guy?
This is the same guy where there is a video of Ramsey hitting on minors. He promptly titled this video, Johnny Salami becomes P. Diddy. Yes. And it's him live streaming on the street, hating on girls. Finally, they asked the girls how old they are. They are 16 and 17. He lies to them that he's 19, but he's actually 23. And he says it's fine because the age of consent in that area is 16.
He straight up tells these girls he doesn't care how old they are because he's ready to go to jail. He doesn't give a fuck. He tells the girls, I'm going to groom you. He literally says, I will groom you.
Do they fully understand what he's saying?
Yes. And they're getting freaked out. He's kissing their hands. He starts trying to get their numbers and says, hey, call me Johnny 16. Call me Johnny 17. I don't give a fuck. I'm like P Diddy. I'm like Epstein. I'm like R Kelly. I don't care. Age is just but a number. You need an older man with some money. I'm not from here. So I'll take the chick and leave like Diddy.
I'll get on a plane and leave like Diddy. And I'm out. Side note, he has also said about women before in the past that they are quote, they are lower life forms only to be used for breeding. Shouldn't vote, shouldn't speak. Regardless, by the end of 2023, Ramsey is arrested in Japan.
When he is finally released, he is deported from Japan and has a travel ban so that he cannot travel to Japan for the next five years. Eventually, he ends up in South Korea. where some would say that there are certain things that you just don't poke fun at. There are certain boundaries that just cannot be crossed. And for each country, those boundaries are different.

Chapter 4: What are comfort women and why are they significant?
They also dispute what happened in Nanjing, China. Yeah, which we have a whole episode on. So I would say it's definitely a small group of Japanese netizens who know everything and still deny it. And then I would say like the younger people in Japan probably haven't even heard of it, really. One survivor states, I want a formal apology.
They should say what we did was completely wrong and we will correct our history textbooks. and say to us, we sincerely apologize. If they wrote that kind of formal apology, then we can forgive them. This is not about money. I mean, first of all, they're like 90 years old. This is not about money. They keep trying to make the issue go away.
And we are the ones that are constantly fighting so that doesn't happen. It's history. She says, because Japan's government keeps dragging it out, I have to keep talking about it over and over again. And each time I'm heartbroken beyond belief. This age in my 90s, I'm supposed to be in peace.
This is a comment from a comfort woman?
Yes, and she's in her 90s. And she just wanted a formal apology and she didn't get one. And in 2019, she passed away at 92 years old. One Chinese survivor states, the longer I live, the worse it gets. And she is also in her 80s. Decades later, these survivors have still not received justice. But here is Ramsey, an American visiting South Korea.
He's on a live stream when he shows a picture on his phone. He says, that's my next target. Where can I find this one?
the picture on his phone is of a comfort woman's statue the statue shows a young girl in traditional hanbok sitting on a chair because most of the victims were taken in their teenage years the statue is very detailed even her bare feet her heels are lifted because it's a symbol of unrest you don't feel grounded you don't feel settled your heels are raised it instills anxiety
Under her is a mosaic of an older woman, which represents comfort women now, growing older and it's shattered with all this trauma, no way to cope, no way to find peace. There's a small bird on the girl's shoulder, which represents her fight for freedom. And next to her is an empty chair. It's supposed to represent the deceased victims.
But it's also a place to invite viewers to sit and reflect and have a moment of silence for what has happened and how we can all be better people and also to ponder how do people have the strength to fight this long for so many decades? That's what the creator of the statue said. Her hands are clenched.

Chapter 5: How did Ramsey's actions disrespect a historical tragedy?
Ramsey is on the ground, vulnerable. They do not all come in and attack him and jump him. In fact, the Korean man's girlfriend steps in and pulls him off of Ramsey. Then the Korean man goes for Gino, the friend, slams him onto the ground. But it appears while he's going after Gino, Hank Yu, the disgraced Korean, is trying to grab at him.
So now it's Gino and Hank versus the Korean man, to which the rest of the Korean live streamers break it up. And they're screaming, fucking do one-on-one, you stupid asshole. Because they're saying like.
Yeah, because they have so many people, they could have jumped the three of them. So they are still being civil.
Yes, there's it's not about jumping someone. It's about karma is what I think they think. It's not what I'm condoning. You know, it's assault. It's a fight. But I guess they want a fair fight, a fair assault. That's what netizens are indicating. South Korean netizen comments translates to read, the person who kicked that guy should be awarded a good citizen award.
Another reads, who cares what the police do? Citizens are punishing well. Don't even get the police involved. Another South Korean netizen comments, ban them from leaving the country and just release them on the road. God takes care of it. Another comment ominously reads, it's going to get worse. They need to deport him to save his life.
Ramzi Khalid Ismail could have been a very smart guy before he becomes one of the most hated people in East Asia. And I want to say Asia and perhaps America everywhere. He's just a 23 year old guy. From what I can tell, there's very sparse information online, but he's a very normal guy from Scottsdale, Arizona. Allegedly, he graduates from Arizona State University with a finance degree.
Side note, there's a whole video of him talking about school, and he says, before his career online, he was just a bot. And he calls all the students bots. Someone who is stuck in a hamster wheel of life. Which is so dumb. We are all hamsters stuck in the wheel of life.
You're just a racist hamster that's still stuck in the wheel of life, but you're also getting punched in the face every now and then. Back to his monologue, he states, when I went to school those first four years, I did really well in finance, but I was depressed. I did not like where my life was going. Like, where does that leave you? You go to school for four years.
You go to work for four years. You end up in a cubicle with a suit on and a tie. Where's the mobility in life? I'd rather take a risk, you know, and live a different life. You know what I mean? Live in a different country, meet different people. which he's meeting people all right. Even with his right eyebrow busted, he is live streaming saying things like, if you want to run up, run up.

Chapter 6: What reactions did Ramsey's live stream provoke?
Yes. Okay. The comparison alone is pretty insane, but I'm just trying to give you context of what it would be like.
Yes. Okay.
Yes. So the South Koreans are very upset. I see some Americans commenting things like, why do you even want an apology? Even if he gives one, he doesn't mean it. It almost feels though, like he cares more or is scared more of the Japanese government and does far worse and gets away with it in South Korea.
So a lot of Koreans are like, we just want the same, at least give us a fake apology and we'll see what we do with it. We're going to get into it. He does give a fake apology later. But this was one big point of contention.
The second being the cops kept showing up in every altercation and almost shielding Ramsey from the Korean citizens, which side note, I can see why the police have to do that per se. I get it. But it's honestly infuriating for Koreans to see. I get the Korean netizen perspective here. And Ramsey keeps taunting Korea with it. There's a clip of him saying that he's a VIP in South Korea.
That's why the police protect him. He's like a fucking VIP. He also says America made South Korea. He's American, so he owns this place. Which is not how it works. Yeah.
I just don't understand how he can get away with this.
Yeah. Ugh. And he said that the cops told him he's a VIP, which I think is highly doubtful. And if they did, they probably meant vile idiot particle that happens to have limbs. But Ramsey taunts Koreans. And there's a clip of him saying in the back of a cop car, Americans have way more freedom here protecting us. We in the back of a police car. Come and get us. Come and get us.

Chapter 7: How did Ramsey's behavior reflect on American culture abroad?
Chapter 8: What consequences did Ramsey face in South Korea?
And it's not like, because a lot of netizens are saying, why don't you try this in Brazil? Why don't you come to Mexico? We want you. So a lot of netizens from those countries are actually asking Ramsey and Gino to come to their country.
Hmm.
just to see what happens but he specifically targets countries for that reason in another instance he walks up to a korean woman minding her own business this is gino the minion and asks if he can eat her private part she does not understand what he's saying because sorry this is korea speak korean okay that was rude but you get what i'm saying but then he proceeds to stick his tongue out and try to crudely show how he would do it
which is just straight up sexually harassing women on the street. They also seemingly stalk minors around. Stalk could be subjective here, but Ramsey follows a girl who appears to be a minor into a store, asking her why she's scared of him. Because she avoids him by going into a store. And he's like, why are you scared? Why are you scared of me? Why are you scared?
Which you're chasing her into a store, shoving a camera in her face. I would say that would induce some level of fear. The employee tries to help the girl and Ramsey starts screaming, don't touch me, don't touch me. he laughs maniacally before going out onto the street and running up to a group of older ladies.
Like I would say they're my mom's age, screaming, ah, into the camera and just pointing the camera at their faces, like blocking their way of traffic on the street and screaming, ah. maniacally into his camera. The lady stares at him for a minute, then stares at the screen. Listen, if this were my mother, bless her heart, she would have cried all the way home.
But this woman just screams, ah, right back and gives him the side eye to the point where he just tells her, Ajumma, relax. Ajumma, relax. What do you mean, Ajma, relax? Johnny also walks around asking girls if they want to be on his stream. And one group of foreigners informs him, no, thank you. But also, could you delete the video? Since, like, you caught me on your video when you were asking.
And at this point, he shoves the camera preemptively into their face. So then Ramsey continues recording them, asking, and if I don't, what are you going to do about it, ho? Exactly, so shut the fuck up.
In another clip, he spots a cute little band performing outside on stage, which by the way, this whole performance is cute because it's small and it's intimate in real life, but it's being televised on national television. He proceeds to jump onto the stage. disrupts the entire show. He thinks it's hilarious, basically saying, look at me jumping up on here.
