On July 11, PSY shared a mouthwatering mukbang video on social media, showcasing his indulgent culinary journey in Daejeon, South Korea.

Captioning the post with, “Silbi kimchi. Kimchi × tuna × seaweed × mayo… and then… beef head soup with silbi kimchi. Yes, I’m in Daejeon,” PSY gave fans a humorous glimpse into his eating habits. He further lightened the mood with the hashtag #싸먹스타그램 — a playful nod to his unique take on self-care and food appreciation.

In the video, PSY can be seen wrapping generous portions of silbi kimchi in large sheets of seaweed and savoring beef head soup (so-meori-gukbap) delivering enthusiastic reactions to each bite. It’s a candid and charismatic response to recent online remarks from fans who had criticized his slimmer appearance, calling for a return to his signature fuller figure.

PSY, never one to shy away from humor or creativity, used this opportunity to playfully address those concerns. The video’s cheerful energy turned what could have been a negative narrative into an uplifting moment of fan engagement and self-confidence.

The clip has since drawn a flurry of responses from fans, with comments such as: “Even his mukbangs are strategic classic PSY!”, “Managing yourself through eating? Now that’s iconic.”, “Isn’t this just managing his stomach instead?”
