Im Yong Soo is a character in the series Axis Powers Hetalia. He represents the country of South Korea.
He was originally slated to make an appearance in the anime, as evidenced by an early character design on the site, but was cut from the series, possibly in an attempt to avoid protests. Despite being axed from the anime, the character became controversial enough to warrant online protests and the series to be declared a "national crime" by the South Korean government.
