With the rise of the Internet and the explosion of livestream platforms today, female streamers popping up everywhere is nothing new. Even young gamers, elementary school kids, have become loyal viewers and sometimes die-hard fans of popular streamers. Watching livestreams for fun is fine, but it doesn’t always lead to positive outcomes. Sometimes, it even shocks parents.
Recently, a bizarre story has caught the attention of the online community. A South Korean elementary school boy reportedly made a shocking move by donating a huge amount of money to a beautiful female streamer. Whether he was mesmerized by her charm or felt “rich” enough to splurge, the kid decided to donate a massive sum that stunned many. The total donation reached 130 million won (about 2.6 billion VND), which is basically a fortune.
The situation got even more complicated when his parents had no idea about this and panicked trying to get the money back. To make matters worse, the livestream platform where the streamer received the donation operates in Japan, making refunds tricky. Luckily, after three days, everything was sorted out. The huge sum was returned to the parents, while the young gamer who loves beauty probably faced some serious consequences after this incident.
Actually, this isn’t the first time something like this has happened. Not long ago, an 11-year-old boy even spent his grandfather’s entire retirement savings, about 140 million VND, on virtual gifts for female gamers streaming on the iQiyi platform.
