One of Korea’s biggest mukbang creators, Tzuyang, is set to surprise viewers with her unbelievable food lifestyle on the upcoming episode of JTBC’s “Please Take Care of My Refrigerator” airing November 23.
With 12.7 million subscribers and 3.4 billion total views, Tzuyang will appear alongside fellow mukbang veteran Ipjjabbbang Haetnim — marking the first time the two “queens of eating shows” meet on the same program.
“I eat 20 packets of ramen… and my monthly food cost is over 10 million won”
During a spontaneous Q&A segment, Tzuyang shocked the studio with her real eating habits:
- 20 packs of ramen in one sitting
- Up to 40 servings of gopchang
- Over 10 million won (≈ $7,500) in monthly food expenses
Her extreme “big eater class” left chefs and MCs firing nonstop questions, turning the set into a lively talk space.
A Fridge Reveal Like Never Before
Tzuyang then brought two full-sized refrigerators to the studio — plus stacks of room-temperature ingredients — but revealed that this was only a fraction of her real pantry.
“At home, I actually have four fridges and a snack-only storage room,” she said, sharing a video of her kitchen.
Chefs were left speechless:
- “Is this a convenience store warehouse?” — Kim Poong
- “Four fridges? That’s like a 100-seat restaurant.” — Choi Hyun-seok
Inside were industrial-sized ingredients, a fridge dedicated only to beverages, and enough stock to run a restaurant.
Her Secret Ingredient Sparks Curiosity
One of the most unexpected moments came when the hosts found a single-portion ready meal inside the mountain of professional-sized items.
Tzuyang laughed and explained:
“I eat it while waiting for delivery food when I’m too hungry.”
The cast then discovered an ingredient with the label completely removed. When asked why, Tzuyang replied:
“It’s my all-purpose secret ingredient… I don’t want anyone else to know what it is.”
The studio erupted with curiosity.
Where to Watch
Tzuyang’s full fridge reveal and behind-the-scenes food stories will air on November 23 at 9 p.m. KST on JTBC’s Please Take Care of My Refrigerator.
Editor’s Insight — Why Tzuyang’s Appearance Reflects the Scale of Mukbang as an Industry
Tzuyang’s story goes far beyond shock value — it highlights how mukbang has evolved from niche internet content into a full scale digital industry with its own economics and production systems. Her monthly food spending and refrigerator setup aren’t just personal habits; they reflect the infrastructure required to sustain high-output content that attracts millions of viewers globally. What’s particularly notable is how her lifestyle blurs the line between creator and enterprise operating closer to a small-scale food business than an individual channel. In today’s creator economy, where attention directly translates into revenue, figures like Tzuyang demonstrate how platforms like YouTube can transform everyday activities into highly scalable business models. Her appearance on mainstream television further signals that mukbang is no longer just online entertainment it’s becoming a recognized and influential part of modern media culture.
