Mukbang YouTuber Tzuyang performed a generous act for pediatric patients.
On the 26th, a video titled "5 million won per burger! How many did I eat in total? I saw the comment and went right away" was uploaded to Tzuyang's YouTube channel.
That day Tzuyang revealed a subscriber's comment, saying, "Actually, earlier I saw a comment on my octopus mukbang video. I saw a comment posted two hours earlier. As soon as I saw this comment, I thought it would be great if the child could see me actually eat the lucky burger. I told my team to make sure we go, so we arranged it and came today."
The comment read, "Every time I have surgery and I'm in pain, I watch Tzuyang's videos and get through the pain. I have a favor to ask: could you do a lucky burger mukbang? I heard that 100 won is donated for each burger. I hope children who are sick like me recover quickly."
In response, Tzuyang decided to take part in the lucky burger donation relay. She went straight to a fast-food restaurant and ordered lucky burgers, saying, "The lucky burger is something they do every year, usually released at the end of the year to the beginning of the year. I understand the period is about a month, and whether you buy it as a set or a single item, 100 won is donated per purchase," and added, "Thanks to the friend who left the comment, I learned about this and I want to participate diligently every year."
She said, "A comment I often saw while doing mukbangs was from people who aren't feeling well saying they get vicarious satisfaction from watching mukbangs. Every time I see those comments, I hope they recover quickly and can eat something delicious. I'm so grateful and happy that they say they get vicarious satisfaction. I eat so many delicious things every day that I sometimes feel a little guilty. Especially, children are at an age when they should be eating and growing. I once visited a pediatric cancer hospital, and some children there couldn't eat well, but I think avoiding stress helps the disease heal faster. I hope everyone recovers quickly and can always eat lots of delicious food, and I'll try my hardest to do mukbangs so they get the energy to eat too," conveying her emotion.
Afterward, Tzuyang ate seven hamburgers, and with three staff members joining, they reached a total of 10. Tzuyang said, "So the amount came to 1,000 won. I'm grateful to the child and thankful that they always watch my videos and told me about this great donation event, so we decided to do a bit more. Actually, a while ago my subscriber count reached 13 million. Isn't that something to be very thankful for? We thought about how to commemorate it, and instead of 100 won per burger, we decided on 5 million won each, and since we ate 10, we plan to donate 50 million won to the sick children."
She said, "Wasn't all of this possible thanks to the subscribers? It's an amount we can do because of the people who watch and show interest, so not only in my name but mine and the 13 million subscribers' names together," encouraging the subscriber who left the lucky burger comment: "Surgery must be very difficult and trying, but I hope you recover quickly, eat lots of delicious food and that one day we can eat something delicious together." She then thanked her subscribers, "I'm so grateful for the 13 million." Toward the end of the video, Tzuyang visited a children's hospital in person and delivered a 50 million won Hope Sharing Fund, adding to the emotional impact.
