[Message from AL & HELEN] Hey everyone. Hope everyone is doing well, and thank you for tuning into another episode of Asianalysis. Before moving into the video, I’d like to just mention the fact that whenever we create content on a sensitive social issue such as the one of today’s video, we’ve had times when some of our viewers got quite, let’s just say emotional in the comments section, making certain negative remarks to the other commenters for providing viewpoints that do not agree with their opinions. And such comments containing profanity, or plain and simple taking things too far against another commenter will immediately be blocked and deleted. But with that said, as there are no definitive answers to social questions in the lines of 1+1=2, a thoughtful discussion showing the different types of opinions in which every individual has, is also more than necessary. So let’s keep the comments between each other respectful, and we always appreciate your love and support. -AL & HELEN -------- Our Book: THE SECRETS OF THE JAPANESE MIND- Demystifying the Japanese psyche towards life, gender, love, sex and more. payhip.com/b/eBk45 Based on my decade-plus years of experience living in Japan, our book will mainly be of fruit for reaching two goals: 1.Maximizing utility that is to be had in a Japanese setting, or a setting composed of Japanese people, by being able to understand why they do what they do (and not just sit there and complain of how they do things so differently) 2.Avoid the years of trial-and-error and pain in which I had to personally face when interacting with people from this island nation, composed of individuals whose psychological framework was by far the most idiosyncratic to that of people from any other countries in which I’ve lived in (South Korea, UK, Australia, China, Malaysia, etc) -------- ◆About us◆ AL I graduated from Waseda University 早稲田大学 (the alma mater of the current Japanese Prime Minister, Chairman of Samsung Group, CEO of Sony, president and CEO of Honda, etc) with a degree in Global Political Economy 国際政治経済学科 at the Department of Political Science and Economics 政治経済学部, and have lived, studied and worked in Japan for over a decade.

okay, I'm dyslexic, I read the title of the video as "Koreas online shopping problem", and for 7 ducking minutes, wondered when the shopping part is going to come in😂😂😂😂😂😂
It is the chemicals that the governments and corporations of the world are putting in the food and water. Men worldwide have low testosterone because of the chemicals.
i saw it first hand, so many times. Most stand out moment was at Seoul popcon in Gangnam... tons of streamers... lots of girly streamers.... guys were little falling over each other to get closer to one specific one. They followed her every movement. She would "drop" her wallet or lipgloss etc and alllllll the boys would dive to the ground to pic it up and she would giggle.... like actual "tee hee" and do aegyo. The boys would follow her every whim like little puppies. There was no shame or embarrassment lol like where is your pride??!! I'm not trying to be mean but it was crayyyy
if my friends would be there at the moment she 'dropped ' her wallet one would try to take the wallet and get away and the others would try to take the wallets from the simps.
The GLAM member who became a BJ was Kim Si Won. And she was flirting/having an affair (I don't remember) with Lee Byung Hun who was married at that time. But Kim Si Won's extortion became bigger news and she was thrown under the bus. Fun fact, GLAM was Bang Si-Hyuk's first group before he created BTS. GLAM was destroyed by the scandal and Bang Si-Hyuk swore off girl groups after the scandal stating girl groups were "too much drama".
I found it funny how most of the "simping problems" hardly are just "simping problems" in the case you talk about that person did in fact blackmail someone who was cheating = it's not a "black and white" thing or crime where typical moral compass say "this person sucks": Even the first case has the girl actually paying a rather big fine for literally getting a few free meal, which seemingly the author is not seeing as enough of a punishment. The problem there is not that "those did not get cancelled" It's the that "the other DID get cancelled" Second part of the video is basically the same as the problems with idol simps (which is not so dissimilar from what happened in the past with tulips for example )
You should do an analysis on the Fat Cat story from China. Basically Fat Cat is a video game carrier (sells carrying service for MOBA games) and he started dating a woman online. Kept on asking for money from him for various reasons and drained roughly $100K USD from him and broke up with him cause he no longer has the funds to support her financially. Then he committed suicide. The crazy thing is it has caused such an outcry online in China that apparently there are groups on telegram putting a bounty on her head (there are screen shots), and there has been videos of ppl literally fake asking her out to hotel parties and then slapping the shit out of her. While I don't condone violence, the reason why netizens got so mad is because she and her friend claimed no responsibility in Fat Cat‘s death and immediately begin looking for the next target. There are also screenshots of her arguing with Fat Cat's family and saying he deserved it. Not to mention she cheated on him while they were dating.
I know the case you’re talking about and it’s gotten pretty big in Vietnam (where I’m from). The evidence against his ex-gf have been disproven and all the messages of her asking for money were faked or taken out of context. Fat Cat’s sister allegedly fabricated evidence against the ex-gf to avenge for his death.
The attacks on her weren’t reported here but allegedly she’d also contacted the family after Fat Cat’s s*icide and has returned the money that was last sent to her. Fat Cat also allegedly gave her the money WILLINGLY to support her flower shop business and she’d also refused taking his money on a couple of occasions.
So I know of this case and it was really popular where I’m from. Turns out allegedly Fat Cat’s gf never cheated, it was all fabricated by his sister as revenge against the gf. Also allegedly, the gf initially refused to take the money from Fat Cat and paid off the amount owed to his family after his passing. The money sent to her were actually sent towards a mutual account where they both put money into for her flower shop. In the end his attempt and ending life was speculated to be because of his declining mental health as he was earning money online for days on end with little to no rest, and the break up just added onto his stress.
@@namphuongnguyen8569dang… I never heard this side of the story. But I’ll be honest, we gotta follow where the money runs. If there are proof of multiple and numerous of transfers then the gf definitely is fishy
Your solution at the end of the vid is spot on: develop a deep respect for yourself. Improve your body and mind to increase your value. Take the risk to approach someone in reality, it is likely you will get shot down, but every once on a while…..you will score a home run. ❤
@@EmilyRafferty If a society has a drug problem, simply telling addicts they shouldn't blame other for their issues isn't going to alleviate the overall drug problem. It's simply trying to make the best of the wreckage after the fact. You have to get at the root causes for the breakdown.

Where is the Confucianism here.. 5million award to the restaurant owner is not punitive enough. To think the mother is in on it shows how low that family is
As Vtuber fan who has seen many similar cases to this problem, i'd like to add on a few information: - In regard to the murder of C's mother, this dude is often called as an unicorn, who believes that their streamers have to belong them with an incel-like mindset (i give u my affection and u have to repay it) and would do the most heinous crime to protect the sense of parasocialism they maintain - A lot of men end up being simps is due to the fact that they cannot feel the sense of self-respect and validation to themselves. This is often caused by a societal hierarchy, creating many miserable men who believes themselves to be incels (in this case is usually described as men who believe they are incompatible with romantic or affection from opposite gender). The low self-esteem men could also be a result of neglect from the real life world, often from the form of bullying, ghosting or a lack of community sense, isolating these people, which in turn make them turn to the digital world, because to them: At least the streamer wouldn't abandon me
I just want to say thank you so much as I’ve learned a lot from your high quality contents. These stories are shocking and really sad tbh, I just don’t get some people, “donating” to criminals, liars, the bully, blackmailers for what. Like they are rewarded for being shitty human beings.
your channel is amazing oh my god. as a korean american its hard for me to understand cases with difficult words idk so it helps to have videos that explain it well in english :3
Ultimately this is not exactly a simp or BJ problem. It's a loneliness problem. We are too ingrained in our gadgets we forget to go out and talk to real people that contribute to general happiness. Just like how the message at the end of video says
The TH-camr who doxxed and scammed the restaurant owner is Velvet Tube, her main content is literally just thirst trapping too. Says a lot about the person lmao
@HappytreeLuis That is an unfactual allegation against me, which you cannot support with facts. You know zero about me. Don't accuse, when you can't prove.
In a way I think it is a bit like gambling, in both people who go too far can ruin their (and other's people) lives I don't do any, and I consider both bad, but in gambling supposedly there's a chance of winning
The advice at the end sounds nice however online life and "real life" isn't as separated people like to think. I've seen commentors who've tried that and found that meeting people was difficult because so many in person interactions came from online sources.
thank you for your work. we need more authentic analysis from actual asians from the countries they're analysing, and that's quite rare. please never stop
Me Initially: "Online simps? Well they are free to spend their money however they like, online simps and e-host come and go, is just a business transaction. :)" Me later: Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, shit that's very sad and tragic. :("
This is something that's happening all over the world, not just South Korea. As expected, the countries with more access to the Internet will see higher rates of this happening. Also, a lot of things that are relevant to South Korea will get more attention these days because South Korea is a hot topic right now thanks to K-pop, K-drama, K-beauty, and Korean tech.
While I’m sure this truly is horrible in South Korea, it is not just South Korea. It is the world that has this problem. Especially first world countries have this problem.
You can certainly make the case that simping or taking advantage of simps is a transaction between adults. But in a world where personal connections are getting more and more rare it is becomes clear that it isn't a transaction but exploitation of vunerable lonely people. And a form if exploitation that rewards the negative behaviour that keeps them isolated
As someone who’s been invested unhealthily in parasocial relationships before (though not to the extremes of those mentioned in this video), I can’t stress enough the importance of the ending message in this video. Focus on yourself and your development. At the end of the day, you’re the person you spend the most time with your whole life, so if you can’t stand yourself, how do you think someone else will respect and care for you?
Simping is a symptom of disaffected men, not the cause. Make no mistake, I despise it, but BJs could disappear, the simps would still destroy their lives with another vice. One person had an erotomanic delusion and would have likely latched on to a more traditional celebrity if not for the BJ. Plenty of people lack money management skills and put themselves into life ending debt, if not by simping then online gambling, gacha games, or impulse shopping.
This. The BJs are only the end to a means. The simps are trying to fill a void within themselves and will find another way to do it. In fact these BJs, OF Girls, etc. have competition with the rise of AI GFs who are significantly cheaper to maintain via a subscription service
I have no clue how people could trust anyone on the internet, even communities on discord, youtube or anywhere. I kind be kind or not on the internet, but never ever trust anyone on the internet. And if you meet them in person, then trust is gained the same way people have been interacting for thousands of years.
I've never in my life heard the term "broadcast jockey". Is that just a more complicated word for "streamer"? If so, why not simply say streamer? Just curious.
I'm pretty sure it was popularized even before streamers were mainstream. It's usually written as BJ and mostly to describe afreeca streamers who show a lot of skin so the term BJ kinda there to differentiate which type of streaming you are doing
Great video. The girl who collected lot of money is smart. The issue lie with guys who are willing to pay. As a girl I am not willing to pay to watch half naked guy online telling me he loves me.
I’ve never thought abt it that way. Watching men doing weird sexual stuff online while telling me they love me is so stupid to me. Not to mention spending so much money on them because they’re making intimate comments on screen. The issue is definitely the consumers than the maker tbh.
So then do you also not have a problem with "Hosts" in Japan where good looking guys take advantage of women who end up getting prostituted to pay off the debts? Don't be a hypocrite... The guys are smart, right?
The amount of people thinking they can get away with crime, just because they have a good lawyer is insane. Theres actual evidence of the crime wth lol.
Things like this are always crazy. Remembers me of the case of a murderer with a beautiful face. Just because of that lots of people wanted to get him out of prison. The society is really sick sometimes 😱.
Both are bad. It’s just simple supply and demand, nobody gets rich ethically. Once these men decide to stop simping on random women online and get real help, these women wouldn’t have to exploit them because there isn’t any demand
@@adrisoa yeah that's pretty much my answer. Only disagreement is no one can get rich ethically. I think it is possible if you get really really lucky. What's unethical about winning the lottery or accidentally creating a hit song?
Yea just like with drugs when people stop taking drugs there won't be any drugdealers. Makes no sense why people arrest the dealers just cure every addict instead@@adrisoa
In America I consider the streamers to be worse with some exceptions. Twitch is supposed to be a website for children. The girl gamers go on there looking to create simps. Taking advantage of their budding sexuality in the process.
@adrisoa This gives the same vibes as "If women dressed more modestly, men wouldn't have to rape them." No. Simps are lonely broken men. They need help. The women that exploit them are selfish pieces of shit that thrive in the suffering of others.
This is going to make a light bulb go off in the heads of the wrong women over there. Destroying a man or having to face accountability for a crime can be undone and even profited from massively. If God doesn't destroy modern society, then He owes Sodom and Gomorrah an apology.
...this is social media personality simping, some extreme ofc, but it's definitely better than smiping women in real life. no moral high horse preaching can solve this "problem" if you frame it as one, when people actually, honestly attempt to find the real cause of why men choose not to spend time, money and energy on real life women, we're getting somewhere; online smiping is result, not cause.
Lol I thought she paid with her hair. One strand of her hair paid for a family meal, the waiter was simping. But later when the magic wore off, the restaurant wanted a refund😅. Cmon restaurant, hair at end of meal by online star is oldest trick in the book.
There really needs to be more constructive content on social media as well. Whether it's employment, education, dating, or peer support. Too many of these generic billboard influencers gloating. And begging for money.
This kind of simping also happen in Singapore but less extreme than Korea. You can't talk reason with these simping guys. They may turn nasty against you for trying to help them.
I think this is like saying video games cause murder. You can be an online simp and pay for onlyfans, but if you take it too far, its not onlyfans fault. Its twisted individuals fault.
People who point out social discourse or oppressive policies gain attention on an international stage. They gain international credability by essentially throwing their country 'under the bus'.
@Ipanophis Enormously far better if they used more universally common; &, universally loved vocabulary words.! However, the video had really, very highly fantastic content; although, a bit too wordy in its' presentation.
@williameverett9866 The sense it does make is that its' disgust factor & offensiveness don't rely on its' definition, but, rather on its' sound, spelling, etymology, pronunciation; associative alliterations, and, selected compositional constructions. Far better words could be chosen. English contains tons of beauty. This is a great example of one of its' uglier sounding contents.
no difference to a youtuber from the West, harassing, slandering and even doxing small youtubers that exposes her unwanted behavior, but because of her huge followers, the platform cannot ban her Money Making account
It's Korean culture. These streamers are just riding on the wave started by Kpop bands, whose sasaeng fans started the online simping craze. And their agencies actively encourage simping to sell merch and tickets.
It's really weird how so many people are trying to make money through social media. But they're not actually building something. Like houses, food, or even basic peer support.
Super fans who think giving away hundreds of whatever currency they use in either donations, tips or merch sales will make whatever entertainer, influencer or e-girl/guy like them more It’s ok to say “oh I like this entertainer, they’re cool and I have a couple bits of merch I bought a while ago and a photo with them during this event or sale to remember it”. Then you’re a fan. You’re a simp if you go to every event or stream, donate large amounts of money every stream and buy ungodly amounts of merch every event and get mad if the person dares to engage in the normal actions of finding a significant other because you think that the “thank you” for the donation or for being a fan at a meetup means that they are totally into you.
If you examine popular South Korean streamers who have more diverse viewerships (e.g., Chimchakman, Woojunging), you'll find that their content closely resembles legacy media (e.g., talk shows, movie or game reviews) and popular TH-camrs. You'll discover that their content is generally much healthier than that of Western streamers. Choosing the extreme outliers in the scene, you are generalizing them to represent the entire online broadcasting culture in Korea.
people heard of belle delphine which can the equivalent of a south korean female broadcast jockey yet many never people heard of south korean broadcast jockeys

This is something that's happening all over the world, not just South Korea. As expected, the countries with more access to the Internet will see higher rates of this happening. Also, a lot of things that are relevant to South Korea will get more attention these days because South Korea is a hot topic right now thanks to K-pop, K-drama, K-beauty, and Korean tech.
I've noticed that. A huge amount of people trying to be "Influencers."
Instead of building something more tangible.
Thanks guys.
Good video.
Its not just male simps. Seungri for example still has an ample amount of female simps.
I'd like to see if there is a correlation between the percentage of simps and the birth rate
what do south koreans themselves think of these "simps"?
Great video 🔥
Thank you man. Always appreciate the support
Online simping isn't just S.Korea's problem it's global problem
While I’m sure this truly is horrible in South Korea, it is not just South Korea. It is the world that has this problem. Especially first world countries have this problem.
What's the name of the model?
Yeah I am curious too

51 million is not a small population :)) Armenia has 2.9 million people, that's small.
No, 51 million is small! The U.S. have over 300 million citizens. Any population over 100 million is considered large.
You can certainly make the case that simping or taking advantage of simps is a transaction between adults. But in a world where personal connections are getting more and more rare it is becomes clear that it isn't a transaction but exploitation of vunerable lonely people. And a form if exploitation that rewards the negative behaviour that keeps them isolated
As someone who’s been invested unhealthily in parasocial relationships before (though not to the extremes of those mentioned in this video), I can’t stress enough the importance of the ending message in this video. Focus on yourself and your development. At the end of the day, you’re the person you spend the most time with your whole life, so if you can’t stand yourself, how do you think someone else will respect and care for you?
Simping is a symptom of disaffected men, not the cause. Make no mistake, I despise it, but BJs could disappear, the simps would still destroy their lives with another vice. One person had an erotomanic delusion and would have likely latched on to a more traditional celebrity if not for the BJ. Plenty of people lack money management skills and put themselves into life ending debt, if not by simping then online gambling, gacha games, or impulse shopping.
This. The BJs are only the end to a means. The simps are trying to fill a void within themselves and will find another way to do it. In fact these BJs, OF Girls, etc. have competition with the rise of AI GFs who are significantly cheaper to maintain via a subscription service
just show their faces dude, aint illegal in america
He doesn't live in America
It’s not about being illegal,I think it’s just him being respectful
omg how can these people be like this disgusting and they say the Chinese are morally bad gosh so hypocrtical
Anti-social behaviour will forever be the thorn in any society's side
Stupid people who give money for stupid things get stupid out comes.
I have no clue how people could trust anyone on the internet, even communities on discord, youtube or anywhere.
I kind be kind or not on the internet, but never ever trust anyone on the internet.
And if you meet them in person, then trust is gained the same way people have been interacting for thousands of years.
I've never in my life heard the term "broadcast jockey".
Is that just a more complicated word for "streamer"? If so, why not simply say streamer?
Just curious.
I'm pretty sure it was popularized even before streamers were mainstream. It's usually written as BJ and mostly to describe afreeca streamers who show a lot of skin so the term BJ kinda there to differentiate which type of streaming you are doing
Great video. The girl who collected lot of money is smart. The issue lie with guys who are willing to pay.
As a girl I am not willing to pay to watch half naked guy online telling me he loves me.
I agree. Simps should be shamed, everywhere.
I’ve never thought abt it that way. Watching men doing weird sexual stuff online while telling me they love me is so stupid to me. Not to mention spending so much money on them because they’re making intimate comments on screen. The issue is definitely the consumers than the maker tbh.
You have better social status, good for you
So then do you also not have a problem with "Hosts" in Japan where good looking guys take advantage of women who end up getting prostituted to pay off the debts? Don't be a hypocrite... The guys are smart, right?
Like they’re just dumb
Dammmm I can see why china has limited internet now Asia has a attach to internet problem
The amount of people thinking they can get away with crime, just because they have a good lawyer is insane. Theres actual evidence of the crime wth lol.
damn she learned a whole new language to gain more simp cash, say what you want but that girl is DRIVEN.
Truly the gold digger of gold diggers
I can’t hate the HUSTLE…besides, a SIMP and their money aren’t supposed to be together in the first place!
Unfortunately it isn't just KR issue and probably won't go away anytime soon as it generate too much moneys.
Opening video with throwing some shade to that SOMEONE, is really epic 😂😂
Things like this are always crazy. Remembers me of the case of a murderer with a beautiful face. Just because of that lots of people wanted to get him out of prison. The society is really sick sometimes 😱.
2:22 it took me until right now to realize it didn't say pimping i'm sad and disappointed
Vtuber fan looking away awkwardly as if they also don't just experience the same thing (and especially with a certain necromancer):
Who is worse: simps or the women who exploit them?
Both are bad. It’s just simple supply and demand, nobody gets rich ethically. Once these men decide to stop simping on random women online and get real help, these women wouldn’t have to exploit them because there isn’t any demand
@@adrisoa yeah that's pretty much my answer. Only disagreement is no one can get rich ethically. I think it is possible if you get really really lucky. What's unethical about winning the lottery or accidentally creating a hit song?
Yea just like with drugs when people stop taking drugs there won't be any drugdealers. Makes no sense why people arrest the dealers just cure every addict instead@@adrisoa
In America I consider the streamers to be worse with some exceptions. Twitch is supposed to be a website for children. The girl gamers go on there looking to create simps. Taking advantage of their budding sexuality in the process.
@adrisoa This gives the same vibes as "If women dressed more modestly, men wouldn't have to rape them."
No. Simps are lonely broken men. They need help. The women that exploit them are selfish pieces of shit that thrive in the suffering of others.
This is going to make a light bulb go off in the heads of the wrong women over there. Destroying a man or having to face accountability for a crime can be undone and even profited from massively.
If God doesn't destroy modern society, then He owes Sodom and Gomorrah an apology.
...this is social media personality simping, some extreme ofc, but it's definitely better than smiping women in real life. no moral high horse preaching can solve this "problem" if you frame it as one, when people actually, honestly attempt to find the real cause of why men choose not to spend time, money and energy on real life women, we're getting somewhere; online smiping is result, not cause.
People don't get it. Simps are created thru life experiences. No one is born a simp.
This is basically the Sniperwolf drama all over again
everytime al imitate her saying thank u so much oppa i love u, my soul crash a litle
Lol I thought she paid with her hair. One strand of her hair paid for a family meal, the waiter was simping. But later when the magic wore off, the restaurant wanted a refund😅. Cmon restaurant, hair at end of meal by online star is oldest trick in the book.
Simp detected 😂
Great video! If you haven't already, would be extremely interesting if you could make a video about why the birthrate is so low in Korea.
"With an image, there is no attendant danger.".... Jim Morrison
There needs to be a realistic donation limit. The world is becoming strange with all this weird simp behavior.
There really needs to be more constructive content on social media as well. Whether it's employment, education, dating, or peer support.
Too many of these generic billboard influencers gloating. And begging for money.
This kind of simping also happen in Singapore but less extreme than Korea. You can't talk reason with these simping guys. They may turn nasty against you for trying to help them.
Simpin’ ain’t pimpin’ dawg.
Great video.
I think this is like saying video games cause murder. You can be an online simp and pay for onlyfans, but if you take it too far, its not onlyfans fault. Its twisted individuals fault.
Nice 👍
This is proof of beauty priviliege, that most random people treat extremly attractive people like a God.
Yawn😊
People who point out social discourse or oppressive policies gain attention on an international stage. They gain international credability by essentially throwing their country 'under the bus'.
I do not know what SIMP ing means... Obviously this video is for those in the know already. 😢
I don't either! Stupidly digusting word, too!
Use google. It's almost like it's designed to answer questions.
@Ipanophis
Enormously far better if they used more universally common; &, universally loved vocabulary words.!
However, the video had really, very highly fantastic content; although, a bit too wordy in its' presentation.
@@AndrewHeller-jn7dx How can you claim you don't know the meaning of the word then proceed to call it disgusting? Makes no sense.
@williameverett9866
The sense it does make is that its' disgust factor & offensiveness don't rely on its' definition, but, rather on its' sound, spelling, etymology, pronunciation; associative alliterations, and, selected compositional constructions.
Far better words could be chosen. English contains tons of beauty. This is a great example of one of its' uglier sounding contents.
funny how they sentenced dahee to prison but LEE BYUNG HUN continues to be an A list actor even when he got busted as a Pervert cheater
are these broadcast jockeys similar to s 3x sellers? or are they just like normal streamers on Twitch and stuff?
normal hot tub streamers. they'll talk to chat, do sexy dances, wear sexy clothes. and horny dudes will think they're special
Go outside and touch some grass seems to be the best answer in my opinion.
If it is anything like the US, getting the name and address of the owner of a restaurant is very easy. So, that is no big deal.
This is a global problem
I think the bigger problem is cancel culture in South Korea-- simping is a secondary problem.
simping for randoms is disgusting. like ur giving ur attention to random girls cuz ur desperate and u crave into that? it's disgusting
YEA GUYS NO ASKING FOR @ 😭😭😭
velvettube
the word unalive makes me think about league
Bullies to bullies problem.
man, these people really need an influencer, like el Temach
"Thank you so much for the donation, my oppa. I love you" LOL
no difference to a youtuber from the West, harassing, slandering and even doxing small youtubers that exposes her unwanted behavior, but because of her huge followers, the platform cannot ban her Money Making account
It's Korean culture. These streamers are just riding on the wave started by Kpop bands, whose sasaeng fans started the online simping craze. And their agencies actively encourage simping to sell merch and tickets.
It's really weird how so many people are trying to make money through social media.
But they're not actually building something. Like houses, food, or even basic peer support.
@@eksbocks9438yeah, because south Korea is capitalism, it's kinda evil to me especially cancel culture, this is why I hate south Korea even more
Can you please watch Perfect Blue. It's a perfect example of what you are talking about
"If you want to destroy any nation without war, make adultery or nudity common in the young generation."

what is simping mean? I don't understand?
Basically, it's just a bunch of guys obsessing over one woman.
To the point where it negatively affects their social life.
Super fans who think giving away hundreds of whatever currency they use in either donations, tips or merch sales will make whatever entertainer, influencer or e-girl/guy like them more
It’s ok to say “oh I like this entertainer, they’re cool and I have a couple bits of merch I bought a while ago and a photo with them during this event or sale to remember it”. Then you’re a fan.
You’re a simp if you go to every event or stream, donate large amounts of money every stream and buy ungodly amounts of merch every event and get mad if the person dares to engage in the normal actions of finding a significant other because you think that the “thank you” for the donation or for being a fan at a meetup means that they are totally into you.
If you examine popular South Korean streamers who have more diverse viewerships (e.g., Chimchakman, Woojunging), you'll find that their content closely resembles legacy media (e.g., talk shows, movie or game reviews) and popular TH-camrs. You'll discover that their content is generally much healthier than that of Western streamers. Choosing the extreme outliers in the scene, you are generalizing them to represent the entire online broadcasting culture in Korea.
…and here I thought America was nuts! 😮
This is why when there's a hair in my food I just keep eating it. Who gives a shit about a hair?
She should have simply paid 300k. That's like nothing
I think it's a societal problem more so than the fault of jockeys or the men. It's their responsibility but definitely reflects a bigger issue
people heard of belle delphine which can the equivalent of a south korean female broadcast jockey yet many never people heard of south korean broadcast jockeys
At least she can afford to pay her meals now xD
If I'm paying for someone, you better give me equal value in return. You better get I'm bed with me if I'm going to pay you this much.
