Chinese VTuber s kidnapping claim deemed fake by agency after six-month hiatus

Dave Deiley Published: 2022-06-02T05:20:42 Updated: 2022-06-02T05:03:22YouTube: 王戈wgChinese VTuber Porin went viral after claims she was kidnapped, leading to a six-month hiatus. However, her agency has denied this story, citing a police investigation allegedly uncovering no evidence. 柏凛Pori, translated to ‘Sleeping Devil Porin’, was thrusted into the international spotlight after a damning video posted onto the Chinese social media platform bilibili on May 21. In the video, Porin claimed that her six-month period of inactivity was due to her being kidnapped and abused. The streamer’s graphic descriptions garnered international attention. Porin stated she was taken in by an “Aunty”, a term specifically used to refer to middle-aged women involved in triad activity. However, the VTuber’s story has since been called into question. The VTuber’s agency, MOFU-F, released a statement rebutting Porin’s story, claiming she fabricated it for attention on the internet. The agency states Chinese police looked into the story and “verified the content is untrue.” Read More: Vtuber el_xox banned on Twitch as category mistake ruins bikini debut stream There’s been no official statement from any police body surrounding the incident, and MOFU-F has not offered an alternate explanation for Porin’s hiatus. Porin’s original video has since been taken down from Bilibili. 1/2 At 17:05 p.m. on May 21, 2022, the account "Bai Lin porin" released a video about the fact that I was abducted and sold after disappearing for half a year. The police verified that the content was untrue. It occupied social resources and had a negative impact on the society. — Issac Bridges (@Xu_Issac) May 31, 2022 Without an official investigation into the events described by Porin, fans of the VTuber have been left dissatisfied with the statement by MOFU-F. Some fans are in open opposition of the agency statement wishing to show support and “tell her we believe her“.
