In October 2022, Baim Wong and his wife, Paula Verhoeven, sparked public criticism after creating a YouTube content prank about domestic violence. After receiving criticism, Baim and Paula apologized for the content.

Baim once scolded an old man named Suhud who followed him on a motorcycle. At that time, Suhud asked for Baim's help to buy a book he was selling. As a result of the incident, Baim was criticized by netizens for being considered disrespectful towards the elderly.

PT Tiger Wong Entertainment owned by Baim and Paula once sparked controversy when they applied for the Intellectual Property Rights (HKI) of Citayam Fashion Week. Intending to help, Baim instead received accusations of taking advantage of the viral phenomenon.

A few time ago, an elementary school student with lice-infested hair went viral on social media. Seeing this, Baim visited the child in Solo. However, Baim's good intention was slightly tainted and criticized by netizens for exposing the identity and face of the elementary school student.

When in Surabaya, Baim Wong met a parking attendant who didn't recognize him. The father of two children carried out a prank with the police. Claiming to be the son of the Governor of East Java, Baim jokingly threatened to imprison the man for not knowing him.

The latest controversy created by Baim Wong is selling an iPad for Rp 1 million on TikTok. This action has invited ridicule from netizens who doubt the legality of the device. As a result, the Directorate General of Customs and Excise is conducting an investigation. Report by Dinda Putri Radika.
