Woman earns $9000 a month eating in front of webcam (Video)

Meet Park Seo-yeon, a South Korean woman, makes $9,000 a month from fans who like to watch her eat for hours each day, according to reports.

Known as “The Diva” online, Seo-yeon cooks up elaborate meals, sits down and ingests them in front of a camera, all while chatting with her adoring fans.

For three hours a day, Park eats in front of a live camera connected to the internet and chats with “fans.” Some of her viewers send digital payments that can be converted to cash. According to the Reuters report, she was making so much money, Park was able to quit her regular job as a business consultant.

In addition to the throngs of food fetish fans who tune in to watch a woman eating food for hours, here is speculation that some of Park’s viewers are merely lonely people who don’t want to eat alone. One report claims that one-person households are on the rise in South Korea and many Koreans are eating meals by themselves. That statistic may be helping “The Diva” become the most popular dinner date in the country.
