German influencer Streichbruder faces backlash for disruptive behavior in Seoul

German TikTok influencer Streichbruder, who has approximately 3.3 million followers, is facing criticism for disruptive behavior in Seoul. Following recent controversy involving loud music and dancing on crowded subway lines—including Samgakji, Noksapyeong, Hyochang Park, and Sinchon stations—the influencer posted new footage filmed in the Hongdae district.

In the latest video, Streichbruder is seen setting up large speakers in the middle of a busy street, dancing to loud music, and removing his shirt. The footage shows him performing aggressive movements, such as shadowboxing and swinging his legs toward passersby, causing some pedestrians to recoil or move away in surprise.

This pattern of behavior has been noted internationally; the influencer previously faced backlash in Barcelona, Spain, for continuing performances in Park Güell despite being told to stop by security.
