Broadcaster Ahn Sun-young is making headlines as she reveals details about her live home shopping grants while preparing to move to Canada.
Ahn Sun-young recently announced her plan to immigrate to Canada through her YouTube channel. As her son shows talent in ice hockey, she decided to relocate to fully support his training locally. Ahn Sun-young emphasized, "It's just because live broadcasts are impossible that I'm closing this chapter of my career," adding, "I will continue my business online and come to Seoul every month to visit my mother in the hospital."
She continued, "My son goes to a school that majors in hockey, and William, Sam Hammington's son, is on the same team." She shared, "He saw William on YouTube and said, 'Mom, why aren't you appearing? I wish you would do YouTube too.' That's how I started YouTube."
What attracted attention was her home shopping grants. When producers asked, "How much is the grant for one live home shopping appearance? Please be straightforward," Ahn Sun-young cautiously replied, "Oh really..." showing a troubled expression.
When requested again to "please share openly," Ahn Sun-young explained, "I'm not doing it now anyway. There are different levels for celebrity guests, and those who get a lot are the ones I'm talking about. I also fall into that category. It wasn't built overnight; it's a broadcasting career of 20 years that I've accumulated."
She then revealed, "It's 15 million won for a 60-minute appearance," surprising viewers. Ahn Sun-young also burst into laughter, noticing the stunned expression of the camera crew.
Earlier, Ahn Sun-young disclosed that she would be moving her residence to follow her son, who decided to study abroad in Canada, through YouTube on the 4th. While stating, "This is the peak of my live broadcasting career," she explained, "I decided to let it go boldly for my son's dream." She shared that her son said, "This is my dream, and if my mom can't go, I'll go to a boarding house," revealing her trust and support for her child.
Meanwhile, Ahn Sun-young debuted as a comedian with MBC's 11th public recruitment in 2000, actively working as a first-generation celebrity host, accumulating home shopping sales of 1 trillion won, and establishing herself as a 'trusted host.' Until recently, she showcased her entrepreneurial spirit by establishing a new office in Mapo, and she also shared updates about her mother, who has been suffering from dementia for seven years, evoking deep empathy.
