Uyên Pu, born in 1996, was one of Vietnam’s first professional female gamers and streamers.
She used to be a member of The Queen Team, a famous all-female League of Legends team, and was among the first 10 streamers in Vietnam to earn a YouTube Gold Play Button. Fans loved her not just for her passion for gaming but also for her friendly and charming personality. Born in 1996, Uyên Pu was confident in her beauty and petite figure, with a notable 100 cm hip measurement.
At the peak of her career, Uyên Pu revealed she earned up to $20,000 a month (over 450 million VND) from sponsorships and viewer donations. Thanks to this huge income, she was able to afford a luxury car by the age of 22.
However, she decided to quit streaming when she became pregnant with her first child in early 2020 to focus on her personal life. Recently, looking back on her journey, Uyên Pu opened up about the serious health struggles she faced while working.
The streamer shared, “I used to play games 12 to 16 hours a day. At that time, I was making several hundred million VND a month, but money was easy to earn and just as easy to lose.
I had to sit for hours straight in front of the computer, working nonstop. I rarely went outside to breathe fresh air, had little time for myself or to connect with people. My main meals were instant noodles or fast food with sugary sodas and caffeine. Over many years, this lifestyle gave me blurry eyes (5.5 diopters nearsightedness with 1.5 diopters astigmatism), stomach pain, colon issues, multiple infections, acne, muscle and spine misalignment, high blood pressure… I was in and out of hospitals like it was routine.”
At its worst, the pressure caused her to suffer from depression and exhaustion, even fainting.
Reflecting on the toughest times, she calls her journey “miraculous.” Now that she has found a way to heal and take care of herself, Uyên Pu openly shares her story with her community. Although she no longer streams, she still draws attention from young people thanks to her healthy and positive lifestyle.
