- Greetings Plofessors!
Today we are going to be doing a deep dive into one of Korea's most infamous cults, JMS (also known as providence). After getting exposed by Maple Yip and the Netflix documentary "In the Name of God: a Holy betrayal", JMS has been making headline news throughout Asia and Australia, and the cult's perverted leader, 정명석 Jung Myeong Seok 's, disgusting acts are finally coming to light. In this video, we will be speaking to a former member, Rome, to get a first hand look at how life was inside JMS, and the tactics the cult used to brainwash him and other members.
Intro: 0:00
Sex scandals: 2:32
Life in JMS (ft. Rome): 11:27

Children should be taught about cult in school. There're so many crime cases involving cult but help and prevention don't seem enough. I appreciate that this video was posted.
totally agree with u
I totally agree!
The conservative people would hate it. Here in Brazil they hate the idea of kids to learn what is sexual abuse (they fake that kids will learn what sex is, when in fact they would learn when to tell someone what happen if happened), imagine learning that some religion might be used to make bad stuff...
I had a PSYC 101 class in uni where my professor taught about cult recruitment tactics, and I 100% agree. This stuff should be more widely known because the extent of how far they will go just to sell you a lie IS INSANE. (He also drew parallels between cult recruiters and marketing tactics as well I suppose... So that might somewhat be helpful as well if you're trying to learn that :'D)
I can't speak for other countries but in Germany (Ba-Wü.) , I was taught about in school around like 8 or 9th grade.
And I also think that children should be taught about cu_lt's in school because it's best for their safety to know the tactics that they use, how dangerous they are and how the victims are treated (e.g. getting cut off from their family, ectr.).
Korean justice system me never fail to amaze me 🤮 10 years for all his crimes? 🤮
You took the words right out of my mouth. I was in disbelief when i heard that
Ikrr like 10 years really?? He deserves a life sentence
For 40 years of trauma and damage
But honestly it’s not like it’s just Korea. Justice systems around the world need some serious fixing
Especially since he was on the run aswell; some countries don’t take sexual harassment, rape etc not as serious as they should but he ran from his punishment and clearly didn’t learn from it so I don’t get why they‘d only give him 10 years
I hope the attention this situation gets makes the reconsider giving him a longer sentence next time
I watched the documentary In the name of God: A Holy Betrayal, and from start to finish I was sick to my stomach. Especially him. He was so disgusting and vile for what he did. He knew what he was doing and didn't care as long as he got what he wanted. Also what appalled me even more was while he was in prison, how they kept sending him pictures of the girl and when he came out he went right back to doing what he was doing
You should use "apalled" not "appealed"
@@jshu-_- typo plus I forgot to spell check thank you
I assumed a cult like this took off in Korea because Catholicism is quite big there. But the fact that they recruit young people by trying to be a "hip with the kids" church that doesn't even seem religious on the surface is disgustingly crafty. Glad Rome and other members got out.
I also can't get over the fact that people are being led to somehow believe that the next coming of Jesus, personally selected by God...is a random Korean man.
One thing I noticed is that Rome said he got recuited during freshman year of college. Here in the philippines, before 2016, highschool is only 4 years and students usually graduate and enter college at 16/17 years old. Keeping that in mind Rome must have been really young (16/17 yrs old) when he got recuited and brainwashed
The funny thing is that he/they mainly recruits young girls. Governments all over need to start investigating all these so called churches or religius leaders.
This is very heart breaking and disgusting
And it's great that you're letting more people know about this story 💔
10 years? 10 YEARS??? Whyyy that should be a life sentence! What is that legal system 🤢🤮
In solitary confinement as part of the package too
I was having a cold during filming so I'm sorry if you hear me sniffing throughout the interview!🤧 Anyways, I wanted to thank Rome for sharing his story with us. Hope you guys found the video interesting and informative! This video has been demonetized btw (which may also affect visibility), so I would really appreciate it if you guys could like and comment so this video will get seen by more people!

Awww Hope you feel better, thank you for the amazing upload again 💕
glad to see you got a sponsor for this video since it getting demonetized was inevitable lol
Hey Evangeline! While this wasn't your typical content, I'll admit that I personally wouldn't mind seeing more videos about cults in Asia. It's interesting how another well known Korean Christian cult (Unification Church; aka "the moonies") was actually where Steven Hassan actually escaped from, and later brought about his BITE model.
You did great! It was very informative and insightful
Awesome video 💪
Watching this I remembered that Hyunjin of Stray Kids once mentioned he almost joined a cult by accident. Maybe it might have been one of these cults
Not only Hyunjin but Jeongin as well…Apparently random cult affiliated people approaching u on the streets is very common in S.Korea
Kpop is a cult that is made to targets and brainwash westerners. This is why there are so much western elements built into it.
I've already heard about this awful case, but I'm still very interested to watch your video and get your point of view, cause I know how much work you put into the making process, and how you gonna analyse the situation in depth while presenting the all thing with a good narration.
In short, you never disappoint.
Thanks for making these videos ^^
Thanks!! I hope the video won't disappoint! ☺️🤞
@ploopy678 Expose the Mother god cult in South Korea
"Society church of god"
It's a diabolical cult
(More Fake Christians)
The stories of the victim are so heartbreaking. It is easy for people to blame the followers asking them why they support him in the first place, and this is victim blaming at it's peak. This way of highlighting victim's voices and their stories is so important. You work is so important.
So you don't think it's absolutely ridiculous that an odd looking creepy guy says he's the messiah and 1000s just say.. "oh cool.."! 🙄Pls.. There's victims of many things but this.. This is just stupidity.
Early plofessor crew reporting in!
Honestly, the fact that you were not allowed to take the lesson without dealing with being proselytized at/being forced to go to church in return is a red flag as is. Maybe it's my utter intolerance for religious institutions and how they try to convert the unwilling, but this is bullshit even in non-cults. If it's meant to be a college club, then the service is free, period. None of this "hidden" fee of proselytization/conversion, or the organization gets fined to hell and back. The colleges should be sued for allowing those parasites into their campuses in the first place.
Basically, all of these tactics basically target people who are too polite to tell someone "excuse me, I did NOT sign up to be a member of any Church, what the hell is this?" or to just eyeroll their way through the frivolous ceremony and then never join up on the things they were signed up for. In this case, "rude" or more direct people wouldn't fall into this because they weren't socialized into just going along with something for the sake of politeness (which, sadly, many people have since the rich and powerful like the meek).
I'm normally not for the death penalty, because it is very easy for it to be used against minorities and the vulnerable rather than actual out of control monsters, but cult leaders deserve the good ole two bullets and a shallow grave treatment.
I just watched the documentary a couple of weeks ago and I was absolutely shocked and disgusted by it. Just heartbreaking.
me too I've watch so many religious documentaries and this is definitely the most hard to watch and disturbing to me , I couldn't sleep properly for so many nights.
I watch Stephanie Soo’s first yet your video is so much more specific. I wish you gain as much subscribers as Stephanie. You did your research along with spending so much effort and time doing this. Well done Ploopy.
I'm surprised no one in the horror community on youtube (that creepy reading, nick crowley, blame it on jorge etc etc) talked about this because this is one of the most disgusting and disturbing shit I've ever heard
didnt even have to read the comment to know this video likely got demonetized, but thanks for still putting this out there, I didn't even know about this and probably would have never came across it if it wasn't for this channel. Thanks for the hard work you put into everything!!
the fact that you're able to get an interview with a person or people who were involved in these cases amazes me. it really shows that you dedicate yourself to these videos and projects
I realize you have a degree in pharmacology.....but this is a documentary. You made a documentary. You're technically an investigative journalist, too.
Congrats on that. Great video as well, even if the subject itself is sad. I hope Rom is having a much better life than he had, and idk about anyone else, but I'm proud of him for making it out and trying to help others. He's a good person for that.
A true satan
Oh it's you 😃
@@c0nicalflaskagain!!🫡
I appreciate how you do not just talk about the case, and just reiterate what most of us already know, but actually try your best to have someone who has a personal insight on the topic at hand talk to your channel. You indeed worked hard on this very sensitive topic, compared to the other RUclips videos I've seen that are also covering this cult.
Such an insane case, thanks for the video!!
It's really gross how these cult leaders all abuse religion in the same ways; "I'm the second coming of Christ/I'm God, and therefore my SAing you is a divine act and not abuse." So not only do the victims have the trauma of the acts, but they have the trauma of religion hurting them.
This is so heartbreaking
Let's boost the algorithm, more people need to know about these type of stories, in order to prevent or help in such atrocious situations!
PLEASE please do a video on johnnys ent and their grooming of young boys.
BBC just came out with a fantastic documentary but not enough people are noticing! It seems like something in your realm and honestly I really liked your akb48 video and the respectful way of coverage you did.
How sad it is, that in all countries there are perverse people, harming the most vulnerable, and that the law does not give them capital punishment
This isn't surprising - this has been happening for decades especially in Hollyweird. When you think your fav celeb is thanking "god" its not the same as what we think. Its also telling because they target children who are interested in the entertainment/art/sports industry... that tells you a lot.
This is textbook ways to groom someone, using religion. The bible can be used for good and evil, so be mindful of who your around and understand symbolism, so you'll know if this is good or evil.
OMG I ACTUALLY WAS LOOKING FOR A NEW UPLOAD FROM YOU LIKE 2 HRS AGO- what insane luck! So excited to watch
I’ve never heard of this case but I really appreciate you telling us about it, love you ploopy💗
I'm just so scared at this point. I mean people say there are bad people but there are always more good people. But honestly WHERE? I can't seem to find them anymore...
There are sure many bad people around the world for different reasons but good people too. We dont communicate nowdays with people and dont really get to know many people so maybe this is why we think more bad exist?
For me as a weak woman im scared to go outside with many fears thats why i always hear music for discration.
I wasn't in a cult like this, but my old church was very cult-like. We were told to only trust church sources of information and that anyone saying bad things about the church were miserable and trying to drag us into sinning and being miserable with them. When you questioned anything, you were told to pray, read scrpture, and have faith until you stopped thinking that way. It kills your curiosity and encourages blind obedience, and they start indoctrinating you as a kid. Being in environments like this makes you think differently, and the fear of being ostracised or disowned by loved ones stops people from speaking out even when they have doubts. It's awful and I hope the victims of JMS get justice and can begin to heal.
thanks for making a video about this. we love you!💓💓
Ploopy thank you for all the effort you put in these Videos💖
this is so heartbreaking and disgusting, these people are so evil!
This was absolutely disgusting and hard to sit through.
This is really interesting and educational, thanks!
this is horrifying wtf
I was expecting ATLEAST 50-70 years for him and even a life time but 10 years? JUST 10 years?? For that amount of damage he did to millions? Unbelievable
Once again, amazing video from you. Thank you for bringing awarness to this, I had no idea this was all going on. Sick people.
Great content as usual!!
ONLY 10 YEARS???
He sounds a bit like Keith Raniere, we have over here. Even after confessions, testimonies, audio and video, some were still devoted to his teachings, and even camped outside of the prison, he was tossed into. The major difference is Raniere was less based on religion, but on self improvement. Oh, and he'll be spending the rest of his life, in prison.
Thank you for this video, it was very interesting as always!
thank you for making this video, i tried to watch the documentary but it was hard to watch due to the graphic topics.
Thanks for this video! I always wondered why people would ever believe in cults but after watching your video I understand now...
10 years that’s it for mass sexual assault. I hate the world we live in
Great job with this
Can't wait to watch this video 🙃
EARLYYY, LOVE UR VIDS! ❤
AAA I'm early ❤ love you ploopy
Nice! I'm relatively new to this channel, and it's now touching upon one of my guilty pleasure topics...awful cults 😅
Guys please keep in mind that people like this aren’t true followers of Christ. True followers don’t twist Gods word and it says in the Bible that it’s a sin to have sexual orgies which is what this man has done so please if you want to actually get to know God read your Bible and ask for forgiveness from God himself.
Facts!
Now he just ruined a religion for people just because of his lies Im disgusted and I will watch out for the red flags
I’m your super fans, thanks for your video , which can present this crime JMS cleanly
I learned so much about cults in this video and what manipulation tactics they use but ok slayed tears of themis T_T
Omg, is that the Apollo Quiboloy of Korea?
TEARS OF THEMISSSS, HUGE FAN
I love ur videos!
I wish Left would make more videos about solving these problems. There is a endless stream of sad frustrating videos about how messed up our system is, ok what next.
The answer is education, that's why videos like this that show people the red flags are so important
What a great video thank you so mich
Great video
The Korean version of the infamous Children of God cult. So sad evil exists no matter where or what country a person is located.
My friend is said that cult means culture group. I really don’t think so, but I could be wrong.
Off topic but I love tears of Themis! I haven’t played it lately because it’s kind of time consuming but it’s so fun!
Me & my friends dodged a bullet (more like a nuclear missile) with a cult as well. In my country is not really usual, but these guys came from other countries and their cult was from SK as well, and yeah, it was weird. We went to a few gatherings out of curiosity but it was really sketchy so we cut contact and tbh, best decision. I did my own research and turns out they had some sex trafficking allegations but not proved, so at least we were not in big danger. Either way, kids, be skeptical and keep your eyes open. Take care.
I just finished your video and now I’m watching this In The Name of God on Netflik right now… it’s so messed up….
it's a great video wow❤
that's disgusting
You seem like a very honest and down to earth person, can you please investigate BillBoard and the Jimin sabotage situation.
Not me playing Tears of Themis while having this video in the background...only to get jumpscared at the end lol
The best trick that evil has ever pulled is to convince human kind that he is the savior for humanity. The more fanatic the world become the more tragedy in this world. The only God you need is the one in your heart and your conscience.
What’s done in darkness will eventually come to light
Is this the same channel that I just watched dance shorts on 😅 you’re awesome ploppy 😂
He is saying hes god but committing one of the 7 deadly sins which is lust
10 years in Jail that’s not enough justice for the women he should have 25 to life imprisonment and shut down his church business
Ohhh can't wait to watch this I have heard of them before from crazy grace I think if not an other like case youtube channel of Korea this was a crazy but I will watch this I'm on break and after work if not finished
Hold my alcohol free beer mate 🍻
Btw if it wasn't Crazy Grace, might have been Midnight Theories, or if you speak french, Togen maybe?
I can't recall precisely either 😅
Who will do a full documentary on it beside Ploopy?
DKDKTV? 🤔
Omg they're crazy! I feel so bad for the victims :(
This is why I rejected Christianity as a whole, don't want to get involve and get trapped into something like this.
Im sorry but most Christians aren't like this, yes there are Christians that do shit like this but most of them don't
This is definitely not real Christianity.
The heck? JMS church is also active in the Philippines??
Yes, they currently have three churches here. One in each of the following cities: Quezon City, Cebu and Cagayan de Oro
While watching this series, I had a great idea for producer to do a show where all this cult leaders that claim to be the messiah fight it out, you know like a debate on why they are the real messiah and not the other cult leader. That would be a fun watch
Not sure if you will see this comment, but I think now is the time that you need to invest in some good sound recording equipment or something to make the sound quality better. Your videos are well made and I can see a lot of work was put in, but the sound is a little letdown, you ever have over 220k followers and I think its time you got a better microphone, and even a studio or some place to record in for better sound quality.
Just a thought.
Shane
I didn't know that Philippines has Providence as their church... That's new for me
Basically it's the Korean version of happy science
Side note: you look gorgeous in this hair😍😍😍😍
Did you know that Taxi Driver 2 used this case for their fourth crime arc
omg this must be where the kdrama i watched called save me or guseonwon is based from :0
This is nuts!
Nice video
This is just... What in the fucking world
Yes I'm back and I've watched the doc on Netflix and honestly wtf
i heard this movement in Malaysia around 2002-2010..very active n got a big money support...never heard after tht..
Why is this man smiling like that-
I cant believe people marry, have kids with people who already was part of this stuff
I think he's just one of those people, who smile a lot. He's just smiley lmao
this is literally the smallest section of the video but….
omggg ToT SPONSORSHIP!?! 🤭 i havent seen Marius in a couple of days and now i feel like i’ve been caught cheating 😂😂
on a more serious note! Excellent video! its so true that prevention is as important, if not more, than a cure! it was such a great breakdown of the manipulation tactics used too! It must be a gigantic task to be able to live and heal from such a harrowing experience!
Watching this reminds me of a korean christian group who came to our school to teach us word of god and join them to be a member. They scouted me once and teach me about 'soul'. But since I'm an atheist, I just listened to their lesson and still reject at the end.
I don't know if they are really cults as they look fine and innocent and they are REAL koreans. In conclusion, we don't really know what we are going into unless we already entered it.
nice video
I think JMS actually stands for the leaders name
Until now JMS still not charge. Maybe S.Korea Government will free him because he's got so many followers in Government.
Wttttffffffff everything is so horrifying
I see this video has 9 down votes so far, it would make sense if they were part of the cult. But, since they are not allowed to search the internet it wouldn't be the members. Why would anyone down vote this?
We have someone like him here in the Philippines
Who?!
I'm disgusted
