The first-generation 'mukbang' YouTuber Banzz announced the deletion of his YouTube channel, which has 2.05 million subscribers after losing a match against Yoon Hyung-bin.

Banzz will delete his YouTube channel 'Banzz', which has 2.05 million subscribers, on July 7. Despite Yoon Hyung-bin's pleas, it was a determination to keep his promise. Banzz stated that he would organize personal videos for a week and return to his original mindset.

Banzz participated in an event match against Yoon Hyung-bin held at the Jangchung Gymnasium in Seoul on the 28th. They had a wager before the match stating, 'The loser will delete their YouTube channel', and Yoon Hyung-bin won by Technical Knockout (TKO) just 1 minute and 42 seconds into the first round, leading to Banzz's defeat.

Ultimately, Banzz found himself in a situation where he must fulfill the 'channel deletion' promise. Yoon Hyung-bin expressed regret over Banzz's channel deletion, which had been running for over 10 years with 2.05 million subscribers, and suggested, 'Rather than deleting the channel, let's instead upload my video on Banzz's channel.'

Nevertheless, Banzz declared the deletion of his channel, stating he would keep his promise. On the 29th, he posted a short message in his YouTube channel community saying, 'I will keep my promise. I will upload the last video tomorrow', hinting at the channel deletion.

And today (the 30th), Banzz uploaded the 'last video' and announced the channel deletion. He explained, 'This video is expected to be the last video on my channel. I think there are many people who are unaware of the situation. My goal was to step onto the stage of Road FC, which I have dreamed of while working out. Fortunately, I got the chance to participate. A match with my long-time favorite, Hyung-bin, was established, with the condition that the loser would delete their channel. I accepted this.'

Banzz continued, 'As I put everything on the line, I am determined to keep this promise. The channel will be deleted on July 7, a week from now. Since this channel contains everything about me, I think I will need some time to organize it personally. I also need to inform the existing subscribers, so I set aside a bit of time.'

He added, 'I probably started YouTube in 2013. For 12 years, I posted all my videos on this channel. For me, this channel was like a diary.' He stated, 'It was a channel where I shared and discussed everything about my daily life with viewers, and although this channel will disappear now, I will return to my original mindset and start over from the beginning.'

Banzz has received continuous love as a first-generation mukbang YouTuber over the years. Known as the epitome of 'clean mukbang', he garnered 2.05 million subscribers and engaged in broadcasting activities. Attention is drawn to Banzz's actions as he carries out the channel deletion promise and vows to return to his 'original mindset.'
