The Mukbang Psychology Simplified - Why do we watch people eat, and how does it impact us - Simplest Explanation Ever

Do you watch videos of people eating? Why are you being drawn to them? What are Mukbangs? Where did they come from? Why do millions of people watch them? Are mukbangs affecting society? Do they affect our psychology and well being? Are mukbangs bad? These are some questions that spring to your mind when thinking about this internet phenomenon.
We firstly look at what mukbangs are, and where they came from. We then look deep into the psychological reasons for people to watch them. We lastly look into the impact of mukbangs on the human mind and the human society. We then raise an important discussion to help understand where we are, and where we're heading.
