The popular Korean youtuber Ssoyoung is in the eye of the hurricane for a series of videos on her channel in which she cooks animals that are still alive, which has led to accusations of torture and abuse.

The celebrity, whose channel has more than 3.4 million subscribers and is known for his ASMR (relaxing) videos, was recorded preparing a variety of dishes. In the images, she is seen screaming and fighting with live animals such as shrimp and octopus, who refuse to stay in the pan. On another occasion she is seen cutting off the heads of some prawns.

“This is honestly disturbing to put salt on one of those octopuses. It kills them slowly and painfully, this is similar to putting salt in your eyes, it is almost the same level of pain that these octopuses go through, with the exception that [the pain] is all over their body, "wrote one of his subscribers..

Ssoyoung has yet to comment on those criticisms, and his videos cooking seafood continue to be among the most popular on his YouTube channel, with more than 24 million views.

This type of ASMR videos, aims to awaken a sensory and stimulating reaction in those who see them, whether it is a tingling and shivering in the body or total relaxation. It is a trend that has become popular on social networks due to the economic gain that those who create them can receive.
