Have you guys heard about Afreeca TV? Well, When i heard it, I thought it is a some sort of African TV lol. But it means 'Any Free Broadcasting'. It is getting really popular among young people like teenagers, 20's. Anyone(called 'BJ' who do live) can do live on their computers with their camcorders or phones. And they can earn money with starballoon(별풍선) like cheering system in Twitch, So there are people who do it as a job. So for some top BJ of Afreeca, makes over 80,000$ per month or more, But they also make their lives as a video for Youtube, Money from commercial sponsor etc. So yeah, they make a lot of money once they get famous. But it is really difficult to get famous, Many of current famous BJs have long time of days of anonymity just like in entertainment industry. People mostly do chat with the viewers doing computer games, broadcasting other sports games, or having their own contents just like TV shows But mostly in individual level. ...

I talked about dark side of Military life in Part1. So now i'm trying to talk about how military life is like as a one person. There are lot of option to serve the duty, For example, we can do alternative service in Fire department, Police, Other public institutions. In my case, I was a KATUSA which is belonged to the Korean army, having a connective role between Korean and U.S forces having military posts in Korea. Most KATUSAs belonged to both Korean Army and U.S forces and some stay in U.S forces's units. So KATUSAs are following both rules of two forces But, mainly Korean's. During when most Korean men serve in the military for around 21 month, they usually get to sergeant(it's called 병장 in Korea)rank. You may think at least Korean men can make some money from servicing the duty in Military. Oh well, I also hoped so, But here's latest Korean soldier's paycheck. Private : 148,800 won Private First Class : 161,000 won Corporal : 178,000 won Se...

Every physically fit Korean men have a duty of servicing in the military for 21 months(23 months for Navy, 24 months for Air force).

Because it's not a choice to join the military, Some may think it is just great experience when you look back after get discharged, But Some can feel it as a compulsion, feeling voidness, standing on the bottom that have to start again when they realize that other males who have some reasons that couldn't join the military or Female university colleagues or females are already graduated or making money with a full time professional job. So some people try to do evasion of Militray service by even pulling their teeth off to make deficiency that can lead to exemption of Military service Also one m...
