每日英語跟讀 Ep.990: About SKorea -1 in 4 office workers are YouTubers on the side: survey
Kang Tae-kwon, an office worker in his 30s, has his own YouTube channel with more than 100,000 subscribers. Its main focus is on introducing Korean culture to non-Koreans, which is unrelated to his job at a state-owned company in the agricultural sector.
姜太權（譯音）是一名30多歲的辦公室職員，擁有自己的YouTube頻道，訂戶逾10萬名。該頻道主要的重點是將韓國文化介紹給外國人，和他在一家農業領域國有企業的工作內容無關。
At its peak, he was making around 2 million won a month. "I seriously considered quitting my job to become a professional YouTuber, which may have led to higher income. But I decided to leave it as a hobby," he said.
最高時，他（靠這份副業）月賺約200萬韓元。他說，「我曾認真考慮過辭職，成為一名專職YouTube創作者，收入可能會更高。但我決定當作嗜好」。
A recent survey conducted in September by Incruit among 735 office employees showed that 29 percent of them have a YouTube channel. The reasons why they became YouTubers were "To keep a record of my daily life and share it with others" chosen by 47 percent and "For additional income" by 36 percent, followed by "Career development and self-promotion" by 10 percent.
最近一項由南韓就業入口網站Incruit在9月間針對735名辦公室員工所做的調查顯示，其中29％受訪者有一個YouTube頻道。而他們成為YouTube創作者的原因，47％選擇「將我的日常生活記錄下來，並與其他人分享」。36％是「為了（增加）額外收入」，10％則為「生涯發展及自我推銷」。
