Internet personality Oli London allegedly received online abuse â including death threats â following his decision to cancel his gender reassignment surgery.
London, 32, detransitioned from identifying as a woman to a man earlier this month. However, he continues to self-identify as a Korean person.
Citing God and Christianity as his reasons for detransitioning, London scrapped his surgery plans, which then allegedly led to a wave of abuse.
âI have been bombarded with abuse for the last few weeks since sharing my transition story originally on Fox News and E! News in America,â London told the Daily Star. âThe abuse I received has been awful. I describe certain elements of the Trans Lobby as a âCultâ because it has so many cult-like aspects.â
The abuse, per Londonâs description, came from those who encouraged him to transition. The messages he received allegedly included death threats.
âThey celebrate you becoming trans and try to push and persuade you to transition and give you positive reinforcement that you are a great person,â London said. âHowever when you decide to leave the âcultâ they vilify you, cast you aside, hurl abuse and death threats in an effort to silence you.â
London became widely known online after undergoing a series of plastic surgeries in an effort to resemble BTSâ Jimin Park. Prior to marrying Danny Richardson, who also planned to undergo Jimin-inspired plastic surgery, back in June, London âdivorcedâ a cardboard cutout of Jimin in January, citing âirreconcilable differences.â
In an earlier interview with Fox Newsâ Tucker Carlson, London blamed âwoke cultureâ for causing his struggle with gender dysphoria. He also criticized the ânew normâ of gender politics in education, saying theyâre âeroding the alpha straight male.â
Since announcing his detransition, London has introduced himself as a politician. In a tweet on Nov. 14, he used the hashtag â#olilondon2024â and vowed to protect children from âharmful ideologiesâ and to âfight against woke culture.â
âMy new single âChristmas Bells of Koreaâ offers the same Christmas cheer and catchy hooks as Christmas in Korea and will no doubt have everyone singing along around the world,â he told the Daily Star.
