【摘要2020.10.11.自由】◎茅毅
Kang Tae-kwon,
an office worker in his 30s, has his own YouTube channel with more than 100,000
subscribers. Its main focus is on introducing Korean culture to non-Koreans,
which is unrelated to his job at a state-owned company in the agricultural
sector.
姜太權(譯音)是一名30多歲的辦公室職員,擁有自己的YouTube頻道,訂戶逾10萬名。該頻道主要的重點是將韓國文化介紹給外國人,和他在一家農業領域國有企業的工作內容無關。
At its peak, he
was making around 2 million won a month. "I seriously considered quitting
my job to become a professional YouTuber, which may have led to higher income.
But I decided to leave it as a hobby," he said.
最高時,他(靠這份副業)月賺約200萬韓元。他說,「我曾認真考慮過辭職,成為一名專職YouTube創作者,收入可能會更高。但我決定當作嗜好」。
A recent survey
conducted in September by Incruit among 735 office employees showed that 29
percent of them have a YouTube channel. The reasons why they became YouTubers
were "To keep a record of my daily life and share it with others"
chosen by 47 percent and "For additional income" by 36 percent,
followed by "Career development and self-promotion" by 10 percent.
