He did it without 'Chungju Man' Kim Seon-tae. Officer Choi Ji-ho has become a hot topic for breaking through 800,000 subscribers on the Chungju City YouTube channel for the second time.

Earlier, on the 5th, a video titled "Thank you for 800,000 subscribers | Humble and low-posture talk by Gyeom-hyeon-gyeol" was posted on the official YouTube channel of Chungju City.

In the video, Officer Choi expressed gratitude for surpassing 800,000 subscribers. He joked, "Just the other day, I was looking at 1 million, and already we're at 800,000. This is all thanks to our subscribers. To commemorate this, I plan to hold an 800,000-subscriber Q&A talk. I imagine many of you came in wondering if I could do better than Kim Seon-tae (former officer), so I'd appreciate it if those who came for that reason would leave."

He then added, "How can a mere 8th-grade civil servant like me follow a YouTuber with 1.6 million subscribers (Kim Seon-tae)? Isn't it the way to live to admit what needs to be admitted quickly?"

Soon after, when a netizen asked, "What are your thoughts on reaching 800,000 for the third time?" Officer Choi cryptically replied, "Somehow we reached 800,000, but it feels like we're just holding on. I think we'll soon achieve 800,000 for the fourth time."

Notably, when asked about his true feelings regarding the resignation of the 'former Chungju Man,' Officer Choi drew attention by answering, "The thing that was bound to happen has happened."

He candidly revealed, "(Kim Seon-tae) was always a bit suspicious. He handled the handover so well that I felt I could trust him with whatever I posted on the channel. He kept pressuring me, asking, 'When will we hit 1 million subscribers?' So I thought, 'Finally, this disaster has come.'"

Kim Seon-tae was the key figure who, as 'Chungju Man,' received great love and grew the Chungju City channel into a major channel with 1 million subscribers. However, after his resignation, the subscriber count plummeted sharply to around 700,000.

Thanks to the efforts of his successor, Officer Choi, the channel once again broke through 800,000 subscribers. As of the 8th, it is approaching 820,000, showing signs of recovering its popularity from previous years.

Meanwhile, Kim Seon-tae, who fully transformed into a 'YouTuber' in March this year, currently holds 1.66 million subscribers.
