A young fitness instructor has stepped forward, confirming his involvement in a controversial video scandal that has captured public attention. Shi Yang, 25, became the focus of intense online scrutiny. He shared his story and presented medical documents to clear his name.
Online users had been working like detectives. They identified Shi Yang from specific details in the videos. A black t-shirt with a bull’s head logo, his distinct body shape, even his glasses and shoes, led them to conclude it was him. The relentless online messages and harassment became too much. Shi Yang decided to reveal himself to the public and report the online abuse to the police. He also pleaded with everyone to stop sharing the video clips.
Shi Yang even visited a hospital for a health check. He showed his test results, confirming he was free of syphilis. He admitted feeling a huge sense of relief after getting the negative results. He plans to get retested again next month, just to be sure.
The public reaction to Shi Yang’s confession has been varied and sometimes strange. One woman online even sent him a message, offering to marry him. She claimed she didn’t care about his past. Shi Yang was surprised by the offer. He responded, asking, “Who doesn’t care about someone else’s past?” He also added that he felt “unworthy of her affection.” Other curious netizens asked him if he didn’t find “Sister Hong” unpleasant to look at. Shi Yang revealed he hadn’t really looked closely at the person’s face. He was a bit confused at the time, believing the individual was a woman. He just didn’t give it much thought, he said.
The broader scandal involves “Sister Hong,” whose real name is Mr. Jiao. He is 38 years old. Police in Jiangning arrested Mr. Jiao on July 5th. They charged him with sharing obscene materials. On July 8th, authorities released a statement about the case. They clarified that claims of Mr. Jiao having relationships with over 1,600 people were exaggerated. The investigation is still ongoing.
This case could become even more serious for Mr. Jiao. If he is found to have knowingly spread sexually transmitted diseases to others, he could face charges of endangering public safety. Under the law, this offense carries a very severe penalty. It could even lead to the death penalty. There are no updates yet on whether Mr. Jiao has been released or when he will go to court.
Meanwhile, many people caught in these videos are trying to get the clips removed from the internet. Some, like Shi Yang, have openly revealed their identities. Others, whose actual connection to the events is still unclear, have also come forward. They are livestreaming their “experiences” on platforms like Weibo. One person even titled their stream, “I am one of those involved in the ‘Uncle Red’ case.” This has drawn a lot of attention.
