Net Worth
The exact net worth of Johnny Somali is not well-documented. However, his income likely comes from his streaming activities and any associated sponsorships or donations.
Social Network
Johnny Somali has a presence on several social media platforms, including YouTube, where he has faced bans due to his content. He has also streamed on platforms like Kick and Parti. His old YouTube channel had around 20.7 thousand subscribers and 5.4 million views. Despite being banned from Twitch and other platforms, he continues to stream on newly created channels.
Ismael mostly streams himself on video streaming platforms such as YouTube and Kick as a tourist travelling in different countries, in particular Japan, Thailand, and Israel. Ismael also visited Bali, Indonesia, despite calls requesting him to be barred from entry. He began streaming in May 2023. After being banned from Twitch, he moved to Kick before being banned from that platform as well. In 2024, he streamed on Rumble. He currently streams on Parti, an alternative streaming platform which banned him for 24 hours after breaking the Terms of Service.
On October 7, 2024, Ismael kissed and performed lap dances on the Statue of Peace, a memorial that commemorates young comfort women (sex slaves for Japanese soldiers during World War II), though he later apologized for his actions: claiming to be unaware of its significance. After this incident, his YouTube channel was terminated. On one occasion, Ismael bought ramyeon noodles and then purposefully poured it on a table in the dining area. After being confronted by the store owner and told to leave, Ismael proceeded to throw noodles out of the store. In addition, after being barred from drinking alcohol, Ismael made sexist comments towards the worker. He was reported to the police the same day. In other incidents, he brought a bag of odorous fish to people on the street, and disrupted a bus ride.
Education
There is no detailed information available about Johnny Somali's educational background. However, he is mentioned as being associated with Arizona, possibly indicating some connection to educational institutions there.
Professor Seo Kyoung-Duk of Sungshin Women's University called for a strong sentence because of Ismael's actions and discouraged others from engaging in similar behavior. Seo further criticized Ismael for calling South Korea a U.S. "vassal state". South Korean legal experts say that if sentenced Ismael will likely serve a sentence in South Korea, then be deported, followed by an entry ban.
