I can’t believe he ate the whole thing

In Korea and China they have online entertainment programs called “Mukbang” or eating show. The show is an online audiovisual broadcast in which a host consumes various quantities of food while interacting with the audience. Mr. Kang is the star of one of these shows and is famous for his fantastic ability to consume great volumes of food in the hour. Just like Homer Simpson, he’s been kicked out for good from “Handadi Seafood BBQ Buffet,” one of his favorite restaurants.  Kang calls the treatment he received discriminatory. After all, he hasn’t exactly done anything wrong. “I can eat a lot. Is that a fault?” he argued on Hunan TV. In one restaurant visit, he consumed around three pounds of pork trotters, while on another binge he ate nearly nine pounds of shrimp. However, the man claims that he didn’t waste any of the food. In his own words, he ate all of it. He doesn’t just eat enormous amounts of food — during one sitting he also consumes 20-30 bottles of soy milk. Whereas most customers only take one or two pork trotters on their plate, Kang will empty the steam table tray. Kang’s and the restaurant owner’s interviews have blown up on Chinese social media. The Hunan TV story has gathered more than 250 million views on the Weibo platform. The public’s opinion on the Kang Incident is divided. Some sympathize with the restaurant owner, while others question why he is running a buffet restaurant if he can’t afford it. There is now a growing fear of a government crackdown on the show as food shortages are an ever-growing issue in multiple Chinese regions.
