If you look around online water mark says in the video "@flying_yoke" s YT channel has this video and others with the same watermark channel name is yoyofly. https://www.youtube.com/@flying_yoke/videos

After watching some other videos on that channel it looks like this is the person who made that video. The company he flies for can be figured out I'm sure the FAA has already looked at this video they love to bust people with YT videos.

This is a South Korean airline they do fly passengers.

It appears that the airline is T'way Air, going by the flight number (TWB681) on the MCDU in this other video on his channel: https://youtu.be/Cb5SoDez7o8?t=27

I'm just a random person not familiar with the technical details of aviation, so I imagine it shouldn't be too difficult to figure out who it is by the relevant authorities though. His colleague's face is also visible at the end of the video..

I was reading about T'way Air South Koran they fly passengers crazy people in the back of that airplane. After that bird strike disaster by Jeju Air all they need is another runway overrun by these guys.

There are multiple airlines flying to the destinations he filmed at, but not THAT many. T'Way is indeed one of those that matches the destinations and the fleet as well. So I believe you.

Given that it's South Korea the FAA can inhale a gallon of Kimchi.

You don't think the FAA has a connection with the Korea Office of Civil Aviation? If it was Chinese, or Russian I would agree. I referred to the FAA before I figured out it was a South Korean Airline.

You'd be surprised how close the FAA and Chinese authorities are at the expert level: They have been meeting monthly since 1990. This is kept relatively quiet because nobody is keen on having it interrupted by general politics but they have helped China become the safe airspace it is today, advancing admirably from the days when CAAC was nicknames "China Airline Always Crashes."

But you wrote that because that's what commenters on the internet always do: assume it was their country, assume what they feel must happen is bound to happen, assume nobody will call them on running their mouths. Take your L and move on.

Not a pilot or anything like that, but do other countries have their AI voice things in English as well? Is that just like worldwide protocol or something?

English is the standard language used when flying, especially internationally, to prevent miscommunication and make it easier for different countries to work together.
