This South Korean woman Park Seo-yeon, 34, has turned an unusual online trend into hard cash, making more than £5,600 (N1.5m) a month by just livestreaming herself having dinner. Her plates of choice range from two medium pizzas to 30 fried eggs and a box of crab legs, or five packets of instant noodles.
Tens of thousands watch Park every day as she serves up disproportionately large meals in her Seoul flat and eats them, live, on a streaming site where she goes by the name The Diva. She can spend as long as three
hours eating in front of the camera, and thanks to the success of her show, Park was able to quit her day job at a consultancy firm and focus all her energy on her daily meals on camera. The mmoney she makes are from advertising and ‘donations’.
The trend, known as gastronomic voyeurism, has grown in recent months in South Korea, a country that has one of the highest increase in single households in the world. So people living alone get a sense of community when they watch Park eat.
