Summary

Earlier this month, an audio clip went viral on the internet. In the clip you can hear a man’s voice aggressively screaming - “SHUT UP SHUT UP! You stupid b*tch, didn’t I tell you not to this??” You can hear a woman crying, begging for him to stop. Begging him to stop and spare her life. That woman is TzuYang. She is the biggest YouTuber in South Korea with over 10 million subscribers. And she had essentially been held hostage for the last 4 years of her life and forced to film eating (Mukbang) videos.
