Are they a scam? 54:42 - Conclusion & our thoughts on this entire experience We were recently featured in a viral KZfaq video made by ‘MegaLag’, about how he claims color blind glasses are a scam. He openly questions our video of Kyuho trying Enchroma’s color blind sun glasses for the first time, along with our intentions, and our ‘relationship’ with Enchroma. Important information we provided MegaLag when he first reached out to us was left out of his video. We will not only be sharing this missing piece, but also ALL of our email correspondence, discussing our ‘relationship’ with Enchroma (correspondence included), and answering every single one of MegaLag’s questions from his emails. Being featured in MegaLag’s video has caused us to experience an onslaught of abusive messages, hate comments and spam on our channel. All we ask is to at least take the time to hear from both sides before passing judgement.

I watched his video, watched youe video, rewatched the part of the video where he talks about, and then paused and read all of the emails. I don't think Kyuho lied and i don't think the story your telling now is a lie. Everything sounds legit. But Jonathan did nothing wrong. His deadline makes sense. You could have said "Hey we're on vacation right now,we do intend to reply but can you extend the deadline until we're back". Your affiliate explanation makes sense, but his investigation made sense with the information you provided. The choice to include the affiliate snippet as you did wasn't good. If you had said "hey guys we're filming this right after shooting the first part. We're super excited, we're gonna apply for the affiliate program. If we get approved that code will be right here" or just shoot another segment after you get the confirmation. You didn't DO anything nefarious or evil, but you made a weird and not great decision to shoot the way you did. Also two emails back and forth are not ridiculous. He wasnt hounding you or being unreasonable in his requests. Had he made up his mind about Enchroma, yes absolutely. But he gave you a fair chance to explain your side of the story. Or sit down for a call. Everything you are saying now, you could have said over the phone. Also you say that his video and editing choices totally validate your choice to not communicate, but your choice to not communicate was the thing he used as evidence because you didn't answer his questions. Your answering them now and it all makes sense. But how are you gonna get mad at him for misrepresenting you when you weren't representing yourself. This video is incredibly informative. Your emails weren't.

We have been reading all of your responses. Thank you guys so much for your support. We may need to take a few days off from comment sections, but just want to let you know we see and appreciate you.

you guys are approving comments just like enchroma approves reviews LOL

I don't really care if you guys are scammers, but its a fact is these glasses do not work. It seems you don't understand what color blindness is. The human eye has cells called the cones which can understand colors. The average human eye has a 60% red sensing cones, 30% green sensing cones and 10% blue sensing cones. When you have color blindness, you have a lack of one or more of these cones. In some cases, it's just the case that your eye doesn't have as many cones as it should and in other cases your eye simply is lacking a specific color sensing cone type all together. The idea that an external pair of glasses can make up for this deficiency is fundamentally ridiculous. When you are color blind, your eye literally cannot interpret certain types of color information. Putting on a pair of glasses cannot fix that problem (or even augment the problem) just as you cannot add color to a black and white movie by putting a pane of glass over a TV screen. Your eye just doesn't have the capacity to understand the information. In the case of the black and white movie, the information doesn't exist and in the case of your eye, it might as well not exist because your eyes are responsible for converting information into a format that your brain can understand. When you have color blindness, as far as your brain knows, the color information just doesn't exist. It's like those websites they claim that you can download RAM for your computer....

if a person has never seen red, how can they know red?

Such a long video just to confirm that MegaLag was indeed right.

Hello everyone, I asked a genuine question but it seems as though it’s deleted. So if one doesn’t have the color receptors for certain colors the glasses help? I hope someone would help me before investing.

I usually don’t comment on videos but I just wanted to show my support. You stayed courteous and handled this situation with a lot of diplomacy. I really admire you for that. Please stay true to yourselves your videos are always a joy to watch

He so badly doesn’t want to believe you but it’s too bad for him that you guys actually did in fact show up with all of the receipts. I believe you guys. I’m disappointed that a creator would use their platform to basically accuse you guys of not being honest but I’m so glad you took the time to make this follow up video to set the record straight!👊👏

Him: 'You have 72 hrs to reply', like who is this guy to ask for a detailed timeline and receipt? KZfaq police? Wow, how could he just gaslit you for sharing YOUR experience. I'm in utter shock at the audacity of some people on social media, you guys surely handled this with so much grace. But I want to let you know I have been your follower for years, I remember I cried when I watched that video of Kyuho crying, I was so happy for him. So good on you for clarifying all these accusations on your own channel. I think those haters are his followers, def not yours. Sending you lots of love, from your longtime follower.

Thank you for sharing HIS emails with us. Very interesting for us to see how these “investigative” reporting KZfaq channels conduct business. Scary stuff. Sorry you guys went through this. PROUD of you both for handling this so well ❤

I wouldve never though you guys would ever need to make a video like this. We know you are honest and people of integrity. We don't doubt Kuyho's experience at all.

This is crazy. Please don’t let this spoil your beautiful memory of Kyuho seeing all those vivid colors for the first time. It was a beautiful moment and we all cried from happiness with you ♥️ Thank you for sharing your experience!

Got caught red handed, and try to argue back by replying to comments

I agree that MegaLag was insinuating unfounded accusations. That being said, you weren't willing to engage with him and didn't answer all of his initial questions. What MegaLag failed to recognize was that influences have incentives to make exaggerated videos about color blind glasses without the companies paying them because it was a trend for a while and these videos bring in a lot of views. It's literally your 2nd most popular video on your channel. We will never know how authentic your reaction were but the title of the video still claims he "sees color for the first time" and I think that is deceptive. I would suggest at least changing that.

I believe in you guys

OMG I love this whole soap-opera. Now, when they get to the point where they explain how they made the vid of the affiliate program "just in case", that was too much 🤣. Can't wait for the Netflix documentary!

Your reaction may have been real, but the marketing behind colorblind glasses is unethical and these companies shouldn't be supported.

"It was mind blowing for ME". Meh. There is no evidence that those glasses work so they don't . You made an advertisement for a company that sells crap. No need to make up excuses.

The megalag video addresses how the glasses enhance saturation which is what this eye test does. He explains that this one is easy to trick. The test hard to cheat is the color gradient one.

At the end of the day it’s clear that you had a financial incentive since you were receiving a percentage from the affiliation program. That’s all we need to know who’s telling the truth

When I originally saw your video of Kyuho's first experience with the Enchroma sunglasses I was so moved I immediately went online and ordered several pairs for my colorblind sons. One was skeptical and the other had tried them on many years ago but couldn't afford them. They loved the glasses and said colors were much more vivid for them and they could distinguish differences they couldn't see before. So thank you for exposing me to Enchroma!

I hope you are doing well. That must have been very difficult. It's true, put it in neutral gear and listen. Very well said. That's a good lesson for all of us. Seek wisdom more than gold. Then you know who is telling the truth. God bless you!

This is everything I hate about Social Media! This guy is the one making money from other’s content through highly unethical means! You did NOTHING wrong and I’m very disturbed about the multiple violations this unsavory individual actions conducted. Please understand that your followers trust you both.

I had never heard of Megaleg or this channel beforehand- only stumbled on his videos when I was extremely let down by my pair I got as a gift. Frankly his descriptions of interacts with you seem fairly representative of everything you said. Your only complaint seems to be "he's a meany". Honestly for the tone of this video I'm surprised you didn't claim he tried canceling you

Yall saying his emails were HOSTILE?? huhH it was simply professional. There was no hostility, it was incredibly neutral.

I want to say thank you for giving us an update and telling us your side of the story. Because yes, you are right Sarah, there are two sides to every story and it makes me sad that this "MegaLad" person omitted information and was so rude to you and Kyuho from the start. But I am also sorry that you had to make this video in the first place. No matter what anybody says, you both are amazing people and you have and always will be my comfort content creators. I hope that this settles down fast and you can rest easy soon. No one deserves the kind of treatment you both have been given. Not from "MegaLad" nor his viewers. Its possibly hopeful wishing, but I hope "MegaLad" apologizes for his behavior. its totally unacceptable!

The glasses do not work as advertised. Even the most basic understanding of the function of rods and cones in the retina tells you that they CANNOT work. You CANNOT make a defective receptor respond to frequencies it cannot respond to - no matter what filters you stick in front of it !!! Every independent professional review of these glasses by experts worldwide come to the SAME conclusion. Enchroma are preying on people's misery and, intentionally or not, you are helping them do this. Kyuho may genuinely believe the world is supposed to look the way he sees it when wearing those glasses, but it isn't, and he isn't seeing anything like true colour when wearing them, no matter how much you and he may want it to be true. I've studied colour vision all my life. Maybe one day a gene-therapy solution might be found, but as of now, colour deficiency is completely untreatable, and that is the cold, hard truth - whether you like it or not.

Deleting all the negative comments 😂

In Megalag’s video he mentions the tint being obnoxiously pink or red. If Kyuho has red-green color blindness, doesn’t the tint just look brown? To someone with normal vision, of course it looks insanely red, pretty misleading. Am I wrong?

I have been watching your videos for almost five years now and you’ve been part of my Sunday routine. I’ve known how Kyuho struggled with colorblindness. When I watched your video of him being able to see vibrant colors for the first time, I also cried. You see, this precious emotional moment should not be dismissed and tactlessly smeared by some clout-chasing, money-hungry, inconsiderate KZfaq channel.

Clearly sounds like he’s already had an opinion and was going to go ahead REGARDLESS of any proof. This is also not “journalism”. I also like that he wants hard evidence from you but his evidence is “it seemed like it” “I felt like…” I wouldn’t worry about this person, I trust you both to be ethical and very careful with who you work.

As someone else in the comments mentioned you can approach this from a legal perspective as slander. Your business is based around the content you develop and his manipulation of your content can be seen as damaging from a financial perspective. I believe its under the Defamation Law. In any case, I'm sure at some point Karma will be visiting him. In a world that has gone crazy thank you for content. Its such a nice reprieve during my week.

As a color deficient person myself I can tell that all of the "emotional" videos with the glasses for color blindness are fake. Why? Those glasses are color filters that e.g. for protanopia reduces the amount of blue and green light, thus increasing the red light ratio (but not the brightness!) allowing to distinguish between some (not all) colors that look same or almost same for a protan. Overall the glasses reduce the brightness and saturation (it is just a filter, it filters out light) so the world looks less bright and colorful when you put the glasses on. So yea, you only can cry out of disappoinment, how dark and reddish the reality really is.

There's a lot of people who don't understand colorblindness and this shows 😂😂😂

Question: if these glasses worked so well for him that he cried. Why isn't he wearing them?

Nah. Stop scamming people. You know you'll get pity from people who follow you guys. Both of you are just saving face to not lose views. Even logal paul admitted it was all a sham. Logan paul- someone who scammed people into buying his cryptos

Yall are 100% in the right here. You dont owe this self proclaimed journalist anything who does he think he is? All he did was make assumptions about everything even how affiliate programs work and "wonder" about things. Yalls intuition is totally right he is a dodgy channel!

DON'T GIVE THIS MAN AIR TIME. WE DONT WATCH HIS CHANNEL WE WATCH YOURS. DONT WASTE YOUR TIME. LOVE YOU BOTH. You do not have to justify anything, WE DONT CARE WHAT HE THINKS.

Journalism degree holder and former newspaper reporter here: I had professors who would have failed him for the whole assignment because he didn’t even check if you were married 🤣 I had one professor who gave students a 0 if they misspelled a name. Editors would have made him print an apology and correction of the information he got wrong. I’m irritated that he is acting like this is “journalism”. Assuming that people using the glasses on social media are lying is not a claim he can substantiate. I enjoy your peaceful and fun videos about your life and travels. I watch them often when I want to remember my time living in South Korea. Have a good day 😊

He’s not a journalist. He’s an asshole. Don’t let this diminish your experience Kyuho! If kyuho was an actor I need him to get an Oscar bc I cried with him when that video dropped.

I find it strange that you have only made this video only after mega lag has exposed you.

I could not imagine that accuser would be so ignorant to not know as a content creator that one can pre-record materials for backup in case the affiliation work out. It is not rocket science.

Fancy calling the both of them scammer influencers? funny. both of them are the type of people that tries product again and again to ENSURE that its worth to share (and therefore getting sponsored) just look at sarah's and her pet peeve for skincare, SHE DON'T INTRODUCE UNLESS SHE IS CONFIDENT OF THAT PRODUCT. i personally trust her with klairs (back then) and i NEVER REGRETTED IT, it improved my skin and made me learn more about k-skincare. even kyuho! rocking that vessi shoes for the longest time i've seen (yes, sarah does that too) without saying that they are wearing vessi shoes. also, when kyuho cried out of joy and amazement that he can finally see colours? especially at sarah's motherland? those tears can't be scammed 😂😂 they are seriously the wrong pair to say they scam. how do you guys want kyuho to prove that he's colourblind without those glasses?

Even if all of his points/insinuations were legitimate, dog piling on you guys would not have been justified. I am/was subbed to Megalag for his earlier work, but unless he considers this in an upcoming video and does an unbiased look into the issue, I'm not staying around. One positive through this is that I've now been introduced to your channel, and you seem pretty great; you earned a sub :)

If you didn't notice, this video has more negative feedback than positive. If you want some constructive criticism, you reacted to MegaLag's video in a very defensive and emotional way. Basically, he said that he believed the product was a scam and that most of the people making reaction videos to the product were staged with falsified results. You denied the claims but failed to provide evidence to support your position. Regardless of whether or not you were compensated financially or with products for your promotion of their product (which you actually were both) what you failed to provide evidence for was that the reaction was genuine. That the glasses, in any way, shape or form, cured colour-blindness. Since he already knew this to be false, he is coming at it from a highly critical place. Even watching this pathetic (and I'll get to that later) video response, you were able to show how the glasses worked in your situation, helping to differentiate greens from reds. That's it. That's all it did and I don't know anyone that would say that helps people see new colours, or be able to differentiate between all colours. As he pointed out, Oranges and Reds appear the same, actually increasing and not reducing colour-blindness. Why I said your response was pathetic was because of apologising for being misleading, you doubled-up on being defensive. In the original video, the red-on-green became more vibrant and you showed that in the video. Genuine reaction or not, that is the absolute limit of what you were able to prove the glasses did. By showing them ONLY in their best-light, you failed to do an OBJECTIVE review of the product. Whether for convenience, forethought, or fraud, you DID prerecord a segment on the same day as your reaction to promote and sell the product and that will ALWAYS raise flags. You claim it was because you didn't want a change in scenery to throw off the tempo of the video, or whatever the reason, but honestly, having the video in your studio saying, "it's been 1 month since we recorded this video and we are so happy with the results we decided to promote the product, here's our link," would have been the better option BY FAR. You must have been in Korea for too long. Canadians apologise for EVERYTHING. That's what we do. You offended the internet and instead of apologising, you get angry. That's not going to win you any favours. Those red berries may have looked more red, but the sky is not purple. Even in this video, YOUR goal was to make MegaLag look like the bad guy who was just out to get you. All reporters work on deadlines. The deadline he gave you is standard. Everything he said to you was standard script. You chose to take it personally. You failed to discredit him because you failed to disprove anything he said. Again, you point out one of the people who admitted he scammed people and then he made another video and you're like see, this sociopathic liar ISN'T lying THIS time. Really? When people are caught in a lie and admit they lie, then how can you ever trust anything they say. That is why people question you. You failed to defend yourselves when your integrity was brought into question and instead of trying to repair the damage and beg forgiveness, you double-down and attack your attacker, failing miserably in the process. I doubt you had any malicious intent in your original video, but the product and those like it ARE a scam. By denying that and by profiting from the sales of that product, you are scamming your audience. By not showing any form of remorse or empathy for the millions of people who were scammed by this product, you vilify yourselves. Someone who is colour-blind watches your video, clicks your affiliate link, buys the glasses because YOU SAY THEY WORK, and they do nothing. You scammed that person. YOU. That's the truth about your reaction video.

Since South Korea takes defamation seriously, I hope you two pursue legal action over this!

Watched his video and thought it may be smart to check out yours (Not expecting at all to agree with your side of the story), but finished appreciative of your perspective and the tact that you displayed in such a hostile situation. I hope your channel thrives and you can both move past this annoyance of a smear piece that he created. I'm glad I got both sides of the story, and I'm sorry that he used your channel/video just to paint you out as scammers. Whether the company is shady, or if he's right or wrong about his investigation, what he did to both of yall was wrong and It's incredibly hard to take his side when he's so willing to take down innocent creators just to get a story.

MegaLag is a prime example of sensationalism in amateur 'reporting.' He has absolutely no credentials in the field of journalism, and his opinion is about as important as a smelly fart. Thank you for exposing his biased and shoddy work with actual FACTS. People like him need to be held accountable. You might actually have a defamation case against him, although the process might be quite expensive and time consuming. Good luck! ❤❤

This guy has 246K subscribers. 17 videos. None older than two years. No “About” on his channel. These three observations don’t add up to me. One video is about him saying he has gotten 100k subscribers in 4 months and might not have to get a full time job. But none of those videos are up the got him there? Or is this everything he has ever done? Almost half of his content is about air tags? Where is the depth of investigative journalism experience? Does he subscribe to any ethics guidelines of the profession? I don’t have enough info about him to consider him a professional whose methods and values are worth investing in. Next.

Huh, that's weird. There seem to be a ton of bot comments in this video? I'm confused as to why...

I've struggled with color blindness my entire life. I’ll explain my personal experiences with colors and the Enchroma Protan Outdoor Glasses. It’s a little hard for me to speak about colors since I probably don’t know what a specific color is supposed to actually look like. I took the Enchroma color blind test on-line. Test results showed a strong deficiency in red color tone. A Red-Green color blindness called Protan. An example of what I see: Green without Enchroma glasses: Dark green trees look brown. Bright green grass looks green/orange. A bright green light looks yellow. Red without Enchroma glasses: Red is very dark and dull. I can barely see red ribbons in a dark green Christmas tree. From afar, red in traffic signs look black or very dark dull red. Blue, Pink, & Purple without Enchroma glasses: I have a hard time distinguishing between these colors. I blame my inability to see red well. If you mix red with blue, you get purple. So, blue and purple look very similar to me. Mixing red with white, makes pink. Not sure why, but pink can pass for blue or purple to me. I have a pair of Enchroma outdoor Protan glasses. The following is my personal experience when wearing the Enchroma glasses: Red with Enchroma glasses: When I first put the glasses on, I was shocked at how vibrant red was. While driving, red cars popped. Some red cars almost look bright orange. The red background in “Stop” signs really popped out. Same for the “No Right Turn” sign, the red circle and red line going through the arrow stood out. I was surprised. Green with Enchroma glasses: Sad to say, no improvement. Maybe a tiny bit. Blue, Pink, & Purple with Enchroma glasses: Little impact. These colors look a tiny bit more vibrant. But, I still can’t say if something is Blue, Pink or Purple confidently. Enchroma Color blind test results: Without Enchroma Glasses: Strong deficiency in red color tone. Red-Green color blindness called Protan. Blue 100%, Green 75%, Red 0%. With Outdoor Enchroma Protan Glasses: Strong deficiency in green color tone. Red-Green color blindness called Duetan. Blue 100%, Green 37%, Red 75%. Summary: For me personally, the Enchroma glasses did not cure my color blindness 100%. But, I do like the glasses because it makes red so much more vibrant. I can now understand why red is used in signs and other things meant to grab someone's attention.

I feel so bad that you guys had to experience something like this. It's pretty clear who is genuine and who isn't... and I can't believe this so called journalist compared the two of you to Logan Paul 🤦‍♀ His content is very similar to Johnathan's if you ask me. All for the clicks and likes and reactions. I feel especially sorry for Kyuho... because he has to defend his own experience. It doesn't matter what kind of product I think people should always do extra research before buying cause everyone has their own experiences in life IN GENERAL. What works for someone may not for others. Crazy, I hope you guys don't have to experience the comments for much longer. Sending love your way

I’m so sorry you had to go through all of that; you guys are one of the most genuine and transparant channels on this platform. He clearly went in biased with an idea of what he wanted his outcome to be, was extremely hostile/demanding towards you and formed information to fit his outcome. Anyone with common sense knows there are different types and severity of colourblindness and that it will not work for everyone. Like one type of skincare might not work for someone but be great for another. Hope you guys get some well deserved rest and this will all blow over.

Only 20min in but first of all I'm so sorry you're having to deal with this and YES companies often will ask to use our content for their advertisements without giving you a fee. Famously Numbuzin here in Korea does is as well Grammarly.

He is crying like baby a year ago while wearing glasses, if I am colorblind and got one of those glass, my first thought will be I got scammed once I wear it.

Good for you for defending yourselves. I noticed he first reached out to you during the holidays. Giving you time ultimatums seemed like he was hoping you’d be too busy to either see his email or not be able to respond in time. Very suspect right from the start.

You are correct about Commission Junction being a platform for managing affiliates and sponsors. Another is impact. I would suggest reaching out directly to Commission Junction to see if they can provide you with records. They should be able to. I'm a marketing manager and have worked with them in the past. Also, my son is red/green colorblind. He had much the same reaction as you. His girlfriend recorded him going outside in her parent's backyard. His reaction was very much like Kyuho's. They were the best birthday gift he has ever received. Don't let the b*stards get you down. This was shoddy journalism at best. I'm so sorry.

Some dude has done a debunking video. Somebody needs to sue MegaLag. His only evidence seems to be that he doesn't understand how the glasses work. He never even consulted any experts who would actually understand them. They actually do work!

I’m so sorry that you had to experience this kind of shoddy “journalism”, from such a small-time person! It’s pretty obvious that he is just a journalist wannabe, and he’s using you guys, to feel a rush of power in his belly through his SM channel! We dedicated, loyal viewers, and supporters of your channel, clearly see your goodness, integrity & HONESTY, and are steadfast in our love for you, AND ALL of your content! ❤🤗🤗

I won't have time until later in the day to watch the entire video, but just reading the description let me say this: I've been watching your videos for years now, you always seem really open and honest when you do promotions and you seem genuinely be very picky with them and truly only recommend things you likes. That one autumn/winter when there was the massive rainfall and flooding, I remember it was that season or the one before you did one with Vessi and you really proved they were waterproof and I thought to myself "they really went further than most creators I've seen with such sponsorships and they showed what I as a person would want to test out". I only watched the glasses video this year and I was so touched by Kyuho's reaction. Anyone who's been around for a while could tell his reaction was genuine. Kyuho tends to be really expressive when he's happy or surprised. I'm sorry you got so much hate and spam and you really wouldn't have to make such a response video, but it shows how genuine you are about things. Edit after watching the entire video: yeah, it really seems like your feelings from the beginning were spot on. Unfortunately I reckon you're right about most of his viewers not going to see this or even give it the time of day. I doubt many people even read that disclaimer in his description about this being his pov and it not having to mean it's factually correct.

Honestly, his explanation on "reaction" videos was kinda weak. I don't know the science part obviously and i lack information so he can sell me anything. But that part was fishy. No way that so many people fake their reaction. I get that it's not a perfect product and probably won't do much for most people. But he is just biased. Seems lik a narcissistic guy. You guys are opposite, closer to soul. Earned a sub at least, because of this drama.

I watched the original video and i do think that enchroma are dodgy - i dont think they should advertise that the glasses are guaranteed to work for everyone, but i do suspect that for some people they do. But as someone who has had to prove my disabilities to people because they think im faking and i think its really shit you guys had to record a medical appointment to prove the glasses worked *for him*

Megalag found his story and was ready to twist everyone into a villain in order to make all the pieces fit. Some people refuse to believe there are kind and genuine people like you guys on KZfaq. Don't let negative comments get to you, there are cynical people out there who are ready to believe that everyone is a scammer or liar even when the proof is nowhere to be found.

I'm glad you made a response to his video, it came up on my feed and I didn't want to believe his words about you guys. I've watched you for years and you've never struck me as people who would lie about things like this, if anything you guys are often super transparent about promotions! His whole attitude toward the whole thing seems determined to 'prove' a massive conspiracy about youtubers and these glasses. He's trying to say these glasses promise cured vision which is not what they do..

If theyre so good why doesnt he wear them all the time or get lenses or something? Please.

Mega left out a lot in his video, and made you seem like the evil scammers by leaving out important information. He lost my sub, what a shame

Sorry to comment again, but I just saw that MegaLag had actually commented on your original video 5 months ago of Kyuho wearing the glasses for the first time, writing, "Wow so touching! Out of curiosity, did he score a mild, moderate or strong Deutan on enchroma's test?" And then today, on this video, he comments that he's been researching this topic for 5 months after once again accusing Kyuho of exaggerating his reaction, saying, "the experience isn't as magical as you've portrayed it." Seems to me that this dude engaged with your content in bad faith from the start, 5 months ago. Leaving a falsely sincere comment when his entire objective was to accuse Sarah and Kyuho of scamming their audience says a lot about his character.

I saw that video & was shocked by it. Even more shocking was the comments reinforcing the video's comment (except for mine). I have a different firsthand experience. According to tests, I am not colorblind, but the glasses provide enhanced vision for me, increasing color but also enhancing contrast. The eye doctor seems a bit confused. He refers to "Chromagen" as being the same as Enchroma? Enchroma is unique in using the "notch filter". All the others (Chromagen, Pilestone, Vino Optics, Colorlite), work by suppressing the green relative to red. This causes reds & greens to look different, but only in brightness. In appearance, the glasses look red or purple. While this allows one to see Ishihara plates, it destroys white balance & does not produce true red/green sensation. The "indoor glasses" that Logan Paul was using is Enchroma's "CX-65" indoor lens. This lens was the "weakest" lens that Enchroma made (now discontinued). This lens was much less tinted than the indoor Grayson glasses you have. Several other people noted that the CX-65 lens didn't give him the greens, but was satisfied with the darker-tinted lens. The lens he is using in video is CX25, darker, but still not as dark as the sunglass you have. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/q9OGe7l0lbe-lmQ.html Just wait, & the untruthfulness of the opposing channel will come out eventually.

If the glasses worked why is he not wearing it in every video🤣🤣🤣 come on stop ur bs now

Those glasses helping him pass the color blind test is so great! So can a 20¢ piece of red cellophane. Not adding color but deleting it and adding contrast. For those who don't know MegaLag's second video came out explaining this and a lot more science.

Why even address this? Comment section is so obviously curated when you compare the Top Comments to the Newest First. All even talking about this does is make you guys look worse.

Hi guys! I just saw what that MegaLag posted about Kyuho's colorblind experience. Did he even get consent from you both before he shared it on his channel? Perhaps you guys can get some legal advise looking at how upset you both are from his posting and how this guy is trying to slander Kyuho about his colorblindness. There is such thing as Cyber defamation law in Korea and it is treated as a tort (meaning a civil case where you sue him for compensation). Keep in mind, as long as MegaLag has that post up, it continues to slander you guys by the "day". I posted on his site mentioning cyber defamation law. The longer he keeps that post up, it can equal more compensation. The wise thing for MegaLag to do is to take down the post immediately. Your evidence trail has been your vlogs that I just viewed. You guys wasted your time trying to correct any falsehoods that guy posted against you and you guys couldn't eat, sleep which affected your mental status and health and prevented further work on your usual contents. I hope you guys will look into legal advice. I used to be low keyed as well until I sued my former employer (a very large entity) and reached a settlement. It looks like Kyuho just may have a good case and your vlogs are your evidence. In my case, my e-mails was my evidence. I always told myself that I would hate to see people in my shoes when you've done nothing wrong. Little did people know the low keyed me opened up pandoras box for 55,000 employees and management had to be retrained. My settlement was small but my message was taken seriously. I wish you guys much rest after this and luck in whatever you guys do. (Also, I watched your video twice, and it made me so angry that this happened to both of you.)

Block the haters. Those of us who have been here for years know your hearts.

Also sorry his subscribers clearly don’t understand this video all happened magically one day 🙄

As an existing subscriber who saw the MegaLag video, my reaction was "I see what he's saying, but Sarah and Kyuho always struck me as people of integrity". So I'm sorry you had to make this response, but I'm really glad that you did. Your explanation about the affiliate link timeline was exactly what I figured. I was a little surprised that the glasses could make that big a difference for some people, but the Reddit comments were really helpful. I have a friend who used to study visual cognition, and she was so excited when the photo of the ambiguously colored dress went viral: finally a popular example of how color perception could vary a lot between different people.

But how did you know the discount for the glasses would be 10% exactly? That doesn’t check out unless you had secured the affiliate confirmation before recording. This makes the fact that you conveniently don’t have the confirmation email sketchy.

His “journalism” was far from ethical. I really hope you sue for defamation. It sucks you’re are dealing with this slander, but you handled it gracefully (better than I would have).

Ironic how he’s the actual scammer. Sorry you guys had to deal with this.

I want cr1tikal to pick this up, in part for the drama, but also because you guys getting hate makes me so upset. (I don't, in a way, because that would make this explode even more) I started following you guys when I thought I'd make it to Korea to teach English and I liked your vlogs - life has taken me a different way to my goals so far but I stay because I enjoy your authenticity and videos. I hate "journalists" like this on KZfaq. This is the best response video I think I've ever seen, even though you shouldn't have had to make it.

I’m so sorry this happened to you. You’re amazing and we enjoy your channel. Keep up the great work. We love you!🫶🏽🫶🏽

I saw the original video through KZfaq's recommended and I felt like things didn't add up. Saw a comment talking about your response and wow, I'm very glad I watched your video too. I feel as though there's an uprise in content creators trying to "expose" people because it brings in views, but to use your genuine experience and lump it in with all of the other videos really is awful. No professional journalist would demand answers withing 72 hours. I hope he apologises for his actions and all the unnecessary stress he's caused you both.

Can you sue him for character slander,he's basically implying you are lying... You guys are the most trustworthy and honest people.... your vlogs come through with sincerity.

한국인분들을 위한 요약 1. MegaLag라는 채널의 조나단이라는 사람이 세라와 규호가 작년에 업로드한 색약안경 첫경험 리액션 영상이 앤크로마의 색약안경을 홍보하기 위한 사기영상이라며 본인 영상에 박제. 2. 조나단은 다낭 가족여행중이던 세라에게 선글라스가 내돈내산이 맞는지 뒷돈받은게 아닌지 묻는 이메일을 보냄. 3. 세라는 조나단에게 색약안경 구매 영수증을 답장으로 보냈지만 이미 세라와 규호를 사기꾼으로 규정한 조나단은 영수증은 무시한채 규호의 색약 진단서, 2번째 색약 선글라스 영수증 등 계속해서 증거자료들을 요구. 세라는 이미 구매 영수증을 보냈음에도 본인들을 사기꾼으로 단정지으며 무리한 요구를 계속하는것이 황당해 이 모든 질문에 대한 답변을 조나단이 아닌 본인들 채널에서 직접 말하기로 결정. 4. 작년에 업로드한 해당 영상은 앤크로마 색약안경의 유료광고 영상이 아님. 다만, 회사로부터 커스텀링크를 발급받아 코드를 사용한 구매자는 10%의 할인 혜택을 받고 세라와 규호는 약간의 커미션을 받을 뿐. 이건 많은 회사들이 사용하는 ‘Affiliate Program'인데, 색약 안경을 구매하고 첫경험 리액션 영상을 찍었던 시점에서는 앤크로마가 해당 프로그램을 운영하는지 알 수 없었음. 해당 안경이 규호에게 효과가 있을지는 일단 착용해봐야 알기 때문에(색약안경은 색약 종류에 따라, 사람에 따라 효과가 천차만별) 사전에 해당 프로그램 여부를 체크하지 않음. 다행히 리액션 영상을 촬영할때 규호에게 색약안경이 효과적이었고 게다가 매우 마음에 들어 일단 앤크로마가 'Affiliate Program'이 있을 경우를 대비해 리액션 영상 말미에 프로모션 코드에 대해 언급함. 당연히 해당시점에는 승인 받은것이 아니기때문에 정확한 코드명은 말하지 않고 더보기란을 확인하라고 함. 만약 해당 프로그램이 없거나 있더라도 승인받지 못하면 그 부분은 그냥 편집하면 되기때문에 말 그대로 just in case! 5. 조나단은 또다시 뒷돈을 안받았으면 영상에 앤크로마 해쉬태그는 왜 했냐며 의문을 제기하는데, 세라와 규호 입장에서는 본인들의 소규모 채널을 홍보하기 위해 앤크로마 색약안경 리액션이 궁금한 사람들을 끌어들이기 위한 목적이었지 스폰서쉽이기 때문이 아니었음. 실제로 해당 영상은 해쉬태그가 먹혔는지 현재 시점에서 73만뷰가 나옴. 또한, 앤크로마가 규호와 세라의 앤크로마 리액션 영상을 리포스트한것은 해당영상이 앤크로마의 유료광고인 증거가 아니라 그저 그렇게 하도록 세라가 허락했기 때문. 이후 앤크로마로부터 규호의 2번째 색약 선글라스를 선물받았을뿐 해당 영상 공유에 대한 금전적 대가는 받지 않음. 6. 조나단이 이러는 이유? 본인한테는 색약안경이 효과가 없었으니 색약안경 효과 있다고 말하는 사람들은 다 사기꾼이라는 논리인데, 애초에 앤크로마 색약 안경은 효과가 있는 사람도 있고 없는 사람도 있음(아마 이 사실을 안다고해서 그냥 클릭베이트 장사꾼일 확률이 놏음) 그러나 규호는 앤크로마 색약안경으로 색깔, 특히 빨강색을 태어나 처음 경험해보고는 정말 감동받음. 각자의 경험이 다르고 규효는 본인의 경험을 토대로 반응했을뿐인데 말도 안되는 공격을 받은 것. 7. 결론 : 이 영상에 모든 반박 증거들이 있다. 항상 양쪽말을 모두 듣고 판단하고 중립기어 박자! 8. 제가 두 분 영상에서 가장 좋아하는, 정말 감동받은 영상을 이런식으로 해명하게 하다니 정말 화가 나네요... 멍청이가 아닌 이상 그 리액션이 가짜라고 생각하는 사람은 없을테니 부디 더는 마음 쓰실 일 없길 바랍니다🥲 그리고 대강 요약하다보니.. 혹시나 오역이 있다면 말씀해주세요!

Sounds like Daily Mail, NY Post style "journalism". I understand why people advise content creators to ignore negative or biased or worse, flagrant lies, but to have one's integrity questioned is infuriating. Throw in a smidge of slurs, misogyny and general derogatory comments directed at you; not hard to predict actions of keyboard warriors and trolls. There is nothing wrong with debunking dangerous or fraudulent products and claims. However misrepresentation to skew the report, lack of citing peer-reviewed research and ultimatums in communications are unethical practices that can taint a report. I'm a long-time subscriber because I like your quality content and authenticity. You don't do sensationalist advertising or link yourselves to snake oil MLMs. I appreciate this thorough response and I hope people will take the time to hear your experiences and get insight into your business model. Love the thumbnail homage😑

Yuck unethical money is now getting you for trouble huh lmao

As a journalism student, MegaLag's actions are very disappointing... The approach he took on you guys is NOT the way to go. He talks about transparency but he wasn't transparent. As Sarah said, he wasn't trying to find out the truth. He already had a built idea on his head. How he asked u guys for proof is hostile. I wouldn't have answered either. Sadly, the silence made him go ahead and use that content against you guys. Not saying you guys were wrong but it was a risk with people that don't do their job properly. Integrity? No. Interesting content at all costs? Yes.

this jonathon dude needs to find a better hobby thats doesnt involve gaslighting people because my goodness. hes an absolute jerk to you guys im so sorry. much love to you guys.

Watching this super late but sending love to you guys ❤

He thinks the company is sketchy but he’s sketchy himself 😒 I’m so upset that you guys had to clarify this. He is so aggressive and has already decided that you’re guilty.

11:00 Sounds like he is trying to blackmail you, and sounds super illegal on his end. Not sure what the laws are in S. Korea but I thought they were pretty strict on this kind of stuff, blackmail and defamation.

To be honest the second part of this video has a lot more investigation than the one that guy Jonathon made. I agree with you, nothing you said was ever going to satisfy that guys “curiosity” because he had already decided on a subject for his video and was not willing to include anything that didn’t fit his narrative. You guys keep doing you! Love your content!

Sara and Kyuho, I just finished speaking with KZfaq creator support. They said you can submit a copyright removal request in order to have MegaLag's video removed or demonetized for using your footage without permission, if you haven't already done so. I'm sure you're tired of this whole thing but I think it's worth a shot. At the very least, he could upload his piece again without the portion that includes your video and testimonials.

Why isn't he wearing them now?

This is such an annoying situation. Being falsely accused is mentally exhausting. People need to hear both sides of a story before passing judgment. I'm sorry you guys were attacked online because of that misleading video! Reading his emails is hilarious. He disguises his hostility with professional looking emails. You can't call yourself an investigative journalist when you fail to actually investigate the facts and ignore the truth.

I just watched his video, and its infuriating. Its a guy who doesn't even grasp that there are several types of colorblindness... and that if he doesn't have the specific type of color blindness that this corrects, he will literally see things worse. Its so stupid.

you are some of the most genuine KZfaqr i know in korea (and i've been living in Korea for almost 8 years !). I support you and hope you KNOW you have an entire community supporting you and knowing you tell the TRUTH

I hope you both are okay and I am so sorry you had to go through that. You guys handle this with such grace. ❤ i am so proud of you both x

humbled by your video thank you
