Webcam eater

A strange job title but yes, people actually get paid for eating food and recording it on their webcam to post online for all to see. Very popular in South Korea, people are actually quitting their day jobs to sit in front of a webcam every day and eat. And why not when they’re managing to make substantial money for doing so. In Korea there’s a niche called mukbang where people like Park Seo-yeon eat large meals while millions watch online. In 2014 Park Seo-yeon earned $9,000 (£7,229) a month.
