Many beauty YouTubers aspire to make videos that millions of people will watch and build up a channel that hundreds of thousands of people will want to subscribe to—and 'Korea Grandma' is a 71-year-old from South Korea who has done just that.
About once weekly, Korea Grandma shares a video that sticks to a theme like politics, pop culture or makeup. In fact, one of her most-viewed videos ever shares an everyday 'Going to the dentist and market makeup look.' From the description that accompanies the video, it seems that Korea Grandma has help with some of the more technical aspects of production, as the text reads: "My Grandma is 71 years old, but her bare face still looks great, right?"
Even though Korea Grandma's videos are recorded in Korean, the videos feature English subtitles and titles, which has likely helped the videos soar to viral status.
