Goodbye YuBin Kim (UglyYuBin) on Twitter

I first read about the anti-Filipino Twitter account of Kim Yu Bin (user name UglyYuBin) via this post on Plurk. Here is a screen shot showing the last couple of Tweets posted on the said account (before the account was removed or suspended); click the thumbnail to enlarge:

Upon going to the Twitter account itself, I found that:

• All tweets on the account were @ replies, mostly to heckle Filipino users on Twitter
• The first/oldest Tweet was only three days old, dated September 25
• The avatar and background images used were that of a Korean-looking woman

Also, anyone of any race could have created the account using a Korean name – even a Filipino “monkey” that had nothing better to do.

At the end of that particular Internet troll‘s brief stint of notoriety (more like, desperate call for attention), I was just too happy to take a few minutes to point the creature out to Twitter support, as if it were a pile of dog poop for disposal.

So long, UglyYuBin. You will not be missed. You just got pwned, suckah.

UglyYuBin isn’t Kim Yubin! That’s just a poser. In case you didn’t know, Kim Yubin is a Wonder Girl. :-bd & Her official Twitter Account is: WGyubin :>

‘Nuff said.
