Exploring what crimes Johnny Somali allegedly committed, as the streamer reportedly faces six charges in South Korea ahead of his upcoming trial
After listing the six charges that Johnny Somali is reportedly facing in South Korea, Legal Mindset went into detail about the alleged crimes committed by the content creator.
According to him, the first charge, "Obstruction of Business," was filed against the 24-year-old when he threw ramen at a 7-Eleven. The streamer was charged with the first "Violation of Minor Offenses Act" after carrying fish and harassing South Korean locals.
Johnny Somali's case was merged with a second violation of the same Minor Offenses Act when he supposedly caused disruption while traveling on a bus and the subway.
Claiming that the Parti content creator had pleaded guilty to all the first three charges, Legal Mindset said:
"He has plead guilty to that. So, one, two, and three - guilty."
For the fourth charge, "Obstruction of Business," Legal Mindset stated that the exact cause for the crime is unknown.

The first violation of the Sexual Crimes Act, merged into his case on March 27, 2025, stemmed from Johnny Somali's deepfake controversy in South Korea.
Legal Mindset then stated that a second violation of the Sexual Crimes Act was added ahead of the Ethiopian-American personality's upcoming trial. He said:
"So now we have, again, another deepfake coming in right before the trial on the 8th of May."
