Ah In – The Controversial Streamer
Ah In often livestreams to connect with her fans, but her name tends to get lost among the many colorful streamers out there. People say she doesn’t really stand out.
However, a year ago she made a huge splash. The streamer shocked everyone by creating content where she wore a cardboard box called the “Angel Box” in the busiest area of Apgujeong street, Gangnam District, Seoul, South Korea, inviting strangers to touch her body. She approached men and invited them to touch her chest by placing their hands inside the box.
When asked if she felt uncomfortable being touched by strangers, Ah In said no. She said her chest was her pride and she wanted everyone to recognize that. “I’m proud of my chest and my body and want to show it off. For me, being touched is not something to be taboo or stigmatized.” She also said she wasn’t bothered by the criticism on social media.
Streamer Faces Multiple Investigations
Encouraged by the reaction to her provocative act, Ah In expanded her “campaign” to other locations but was stopped by the police. She was then investigated for performing obscene acts. Two men who helped her were also accused of inappropriate behavior.
Even when facing jail time, Ah In insisted she was not at fault: “I don’t understand why men can take off their shirts in public and it’s considered normal, but when women do it, they get criticized, banned, or even fined and jailed.”
Recently, Ah In was charged with buying illegal drugs. She faces accusations under South Korea’s Controlled Substances Act for purchasing a type of psychotropic drug. Prosecutors revealed that Ah In sent money to a seller via Telegram. Her trial is scheduled for mid-November.
Besides streaming, Ah In is also an amateur model, adult film actress, and adult content model. Before entering entertainment, she worked as a karaoke bar hostess to make a living. At the height of her fame, Ah In held a fan meeting with tickets priced at nearly 12 million VND (about $500). Only the first 30 people to register could meet her in person. The event included greetings, photos, Q&A, and the “Angel Box” experience.
The announcement sparked controversy. Netizens criticized her for shamelessness. Others said the ticket price was way too high for someone as unknown and infamous as Ah In. Still, the tickets sold out within 30 minutes.
