Owner of Viral Live Eating Somtam Clip Speaks Out

Ms Chisanucha Chomchuphu, the owner of the viral clip, opens up about being accused of using fake CG images and her experience going viral online.

Ms Chisanucha, a 29-year-old who moved to Norway last September due to marriage, started going live every day to combat loneliness. Initially, she only had around 50 viewers, but as time went on, her followers grew to 50,000.

On September 20th, she went live in front of her house and ate papaya salad, which attracted around 8,000 viewers. However, many people questioned the authenticity of the beautiful scenery behind her, wondering if it was real or just a special effect.

Ms Chisanucha assured everyone that the scenery was real, but to prove it, she decided to walk outside and climb a tree. However, the tree was too tall, so she drew a tree instead. This action only added to the skepticism, with many viewers still not believing that she was actually in a foreign country.

To further prove her location, Ms Chisanucha rode her scooter around the area, but some viewers still didn’t believe her. She eventually stopped going live after spending over three hours trying to convince people of her authenticity.

After sharing a clip of her experience on social media, the video went viral, attracting around 11 million views. Ms Chisanucha was surprised by the sudden attention and saw her followers increase from 50,000 to 150,000.

She expressed her desire for people to visit Norway, stating that the country is truly beautiful, especially during the fall season. She also highlighted the difference in lighting between Europe and Thailand, saying that the light in Norway is particularly stunning.

Ms Chisanucha’s experience serves as a reminder of the power of social media and the importance of authenticity in online interactions.
