Kotaku on “Mok-Bang”

Kotaku has a report on the South Korean phenomenon of webstreamed meals known as mok-bang. The videos are transmitted on the Afreeca.com website, which has the facility for spectators to donate money to performers. The star of mok-bang is known as “The Diva” (The디바) and her monthly food bill of $3,000 is offset by revenue from her afreeca.com page. Her huge dinners generally take around two hours to complete and she chats online for several hours following her meal. (Youtube channel with videos from “The Diva). (via Oddity Central).

    Did they get permission from MLE? Isn’t this what we call conduct unbecoming of an eater. How dare they stab the Sheas on the back like this. smh After all didn’t they create eating and if you eat anything anytime anywhere they own you. It’s in the contract.

    She is not part of MLE so why would she need permission?

    The ifoce is the governing body of all stomach centric sports. She could be sued!

    Torres ? Now that you brought her up. Brian Seiken went out to dinner with Brian Subich 2yrs ago at Carmines restaurant in NYC prior to the Nathans hot dog finals .Subich invited Torres . She asked “Is Brian seeken (pronounce name wrong) going to be there? When he told her yes she said i prefer not to go. Mind you she still continued to correspond with serken after she made that comment and told him how she couldnt wait to compete in buffalo and meet some really cool people . Well guess what ? That never happened because on Sept 9th 2011 Torres was officially thrown out of the IFOCE for competing in a non sanctioned burger contest . How do yo like that ? Hmmm?

    This is totally ridiculous. You can hear every munch of her eating with the stage microphone and at the 30 second mark it appears as though she either wants to take a shit or is scared to death speaking .

    Seiken continues to cause so much trouble and write the most nasty things about people. He isn’t the only one to write stupid things and things which are against family and married couples but he definitely takes the prize in this category. That is a real shame because…well it is.
