- CJ So Cool’s YouTube channel was briefly suspended in 2018 after viewers complained about a video in which he pranked his kids by hiding laxatives in their ice cream.

- In September 2019, he informed his millions of subscribers that he was lucky to still be alive after a scary incident involving him at a shopping mall.

The incident took place just 1 day after he found out that his wife was pregnant.
