What will Tzuyang eat to make a living now?
YouTube has tightened its screws on guidelines for binge eating and eating disorders, hitting mukbang YouTubers directly. A rule is being applied based on the 'impact' perceived by teenagers or high-risk groups, regardless of creative intent, which also blocks mukbang creators from generating revenue. In other words, the excessive eating shown in YouTube videos by big eaters like Tzuyang is said to give the impression that eating a lot is good, thereby negatively affecting teenagers with issues like binge eating or eating disorders. Furthermore, YouTube's new policy apparently involves restricting the broadcast of their videos, impacting their earnings. The first thought I had upon hearing this news was, "What will Tzuyang eat to make a living now? It must cost a lot for food expenses." Of course, I know it's an unnecessary worry. A YouTuber with over 10 million subscribers has earned a huge income, and with the money earned so far, they can surely live well and eat well for the rest of their lives. What do you all think about YouTube's new policy to restrict mukbangs? 1. It's excessive regulation. YouTubers' freedom to create videos should be guaranteed. 2. Videos of excessive mukbangs should be regulated and filtered.

Don't worry! I think the YouTube policy has been a bit misunderstood. They're so amazing, they'll surely navigate through it. Just like our Steve studies Duolingo every day, everyone will find their own way!

Seeing how YouTube is cracking down lately, it feels like the barrier to entry for new YouTubers is getting higher and higher. They've cut the revenue per view by almost half too. It might not be an issue for those who already have subscribers, but it seems tough to start anew.

I don't usually watch mukbangs, but I like how Tzuyang eats so well that it makes me want to eat too. What a shame 😢

I don't really watch mukbangs, so I'm not sure.. ^^; Adapting to a changed ecosystem by fixing problems is part of social life.. so if needed, we'll have to change.. 😅

I wonder if it's right to even sanction this kind of thing...

If teenagers see someone eating a lot and imitate them, they might also imitate dangerous actions after watching superhero movies or anime. Are you going to block all of that?

I also find it a bit strange that people focus only on the downsides and ignore the upsides. There's so much other content out there that's way more extreme and harmful to teenagers... lol, I don't really get the criteria.

Even if I concede a hundred times and understand the intention, it feels like there will be no end if they keep penalizing everything like this 😑😑

Mukbang is just a form of content. I believe it's excessive regulation to directly blame it as a cause of eating disorders and even block monetization. Creators' freedom of expression should also be respected..😢😢

I don't know if you know this, but I heard they're changing it so that instead of eating at multiple restaurants at once, you'll have to eat in several separate servings.

I get the intention, but it seems difficult to set a standard for what counts as excessive mukbang..

I know that most YouTube guidelines are applied to Korea based on US standards. That's why people say, 'Do we really need to block things like this in Korea?'

Seems unavoidable. I think they'll all adapt well and survive somehow, those mukbang YouTubers.
