Game YouTuber Sutak has been hospitalized and is awaiting surgery after a reported kidnapping and assault. Sandbox Network confirmed the incident in a notice posted on his YouTube community tab on October 29.
Sandbox said the victim referenced in recent media reports is Sutak, adding that he is currently receiving medical treatment. The agency said it is assisting with his recovery and legal procedures.
According to Incheon Yeonsu Police, two men in their 20s and 30s are accused of attacking a YouTuber in his 30s on the night of October 26 in an underground apartment parking lot over an unpaid debt. Police said the suspects drove the victim to Geumsan County, South Chungcheong Province.
His last video was uploaded in early October, and it showed the faceless creator playing through Little Nightmares 3.
Police request arrest warrants on attempted murder charges
Authorities said the victim contacted police beforehand due to concerns for his safety. Investigators tracked vehicles and CCTV footage and arrested the suspects at approximately 2:30 a.m. on October 27. Police reported that the victim sustained facial injuries but was not in a life-threatening condition.
Media reports first described the victim as a popular game creator with over 1 million subscribers, which led to speculation that Sutak was involved. Sandbox later confirmed that information.
The agency said it is prioritizing the creator’s health and stated that it will support legal measures related to the case. Police have applied for arrest warrants for the suspects on attempted murder charges and are continuing the investigation.
