In this episode of podcast, I will introduce a new form of live streaming born with the development of digital media: Vtuber. Vtuber refers to those streamers who are active on the website YouTube through virtual avatars (mainly in the style of Japanese anime), and are particularly popular among Gen Z youth. Since their emergence in 2016, vtubers have made a wide impact among teenagers in countries around the world, and the best of them have gained a huge fan base. As the vtuber industry continues to grow, it will likely play an increasingly significant role in the future.
