Synopsis

Dizzy Kim wants one simple thing: to eat on YouTube and get rich doing it. Months of streaming her struggling mukbang channel, Muck-banging Around, have left her bitter, jealous, and broke. And it doesn’t help that her immigrant parents keep demanding she get a “real job.”

After one particularly nasty family visit, Dizzy snaps. She uploads a fiery call-out video accusing a superstar mukbanger of endorsing a restaurant that culturally appropriates Korean food. Overnight, Dizzy goes viral. She finally has the views, the followers, and the clout she has always dreamed of.

Then comes the twist. Her father’s retirement savings are tied to the very restaurant she is trying to tear down.

Will she protect her family, or step into her long-awaited moment in the spotlight?
