QPark Facts
- After graduating from college, he had started out as an investment banker. He had to put in more than 100 hours of work every week and he began to find that too taxing. That led him to quit and open up some eateries including a Korean BBQ restaurant. However, he soon lost his zeal upon realizing that his real passion lay in consuming the food rather than making it.
- There was a time gap of 6 years between his 1st video and his 2nd.
- QPark’s most-watched videos have included 10 Hours of Walking in NYC as Kim Jong Un (2017), which had quickly garnered more than 33 million views.
- His antics in public have comprised of his singing, dancing, and other actions for comedic purposes that have made almost everyone around him react like he is a totally weird person and refer to him as a “strange creature”, and there has hardly been anyone who has actually danced or sang with him.
- He has avoided controversial topics and he has stated that his aim has been to create only feel-good videos and he has always held on to his conscious decision to make them family-friendly.
