Boram bought the 9.5 billion Korean won building in the trendy Seoul suburb of Gangnam earlier this year, through the Boram Family company, which was set up by the YouTuber's parents, according to a public real estate registration document. Boram has two popular YouTube accounts on which she posts content: a toy review channel with 13.6 million subscribers and a video blog account with 17.6 million subscribers.
The offending clips have since been taken down, Koh said. CNN has reached out to Boram's representatives and YouTube for comment but had not heard back at the time of publishing.The big business of child stardomOn YouTube, child stars can be big business.According to Forbes, the highest earning YouTuber last year was seven-year-old Ryan Kaji, the American star of Ryan ToysReview.

Can’t believe my eyes,woow at 6 I was playing 😾😾😾
And for the other 99.9% who use social media... don’t quit your day job. It’s called luck.
I would rob her so easily 💰💰💰💰
This can't be her decision to buy the property
That's asian followers though. Not quite the same. For many, they just seem like freaks. You got the baboon on the right, the stuffed teddy bear face on the left and some inarticulate, expressionless, squeaking, beeping alien 👽 in the middle.
Dear Boram, how did you do that?
... I think that the editing power is great for now
Am I looking at a girl that has no childhood?
No... Her parents have 30 million youtube subscribers and just bought a mansion...
Gooks!
Who would watch?
And this is good?...
“She” didn’t agree to buy anything other than bubble gum and candy. She’s six!!
I'm not as good as a kid
Guess this was NOT her decision !
She’s 6 years old. She can’t buy property. Maybe her parents bought the property with her money. Just sayin’.🤷🏻♂️ YouTube child star
But have they ever thought of those who had their parents comparing them with her?
That is disgraceful! Why doesn’t this ungrateful millennial donate to charity
She is cute. Lil tay has nothing on her.
They're shitty journalists. No one knows who they are. And they just tried to act like a 6yo has any agency when it comes to real estate. Meet Julia Hollingsworth and Ji Su Lee
Child exploitation being glorified. Classic.
must be nice
And I was watching Spongebob Squarepants when I was 6.
In real words, Korean couple exploit 6 year old child. But we all know your feelings on child exploitation. Usually you cover for the child exploiters
credit to everyone who saw toy review videos as the next fortune maker.
We live in a sickening world.
Meanwhile I’m working my ass of day and night and doing my high school 🏃🏻♂️🏃🏻♂️
1. Be cute 2. Have parents who will exploit you and allow your face to be broadcasted to the entire world even before you are capable of giving consent 3. Pedophiles exist 4. People who like cute videos exist 5. Upload YT video 6. ? 7. PROFITTT
You mean her parents
Yeah right ... and I’m Tom Cruise 🙄
Suck it realDonaldTrump
here I am, a 21 yo woman who has nothing in her wallet
Insane.
Wth
Doe normaal
star__empress21
And our Mini aoc got death threats
I'm betting her parents bought an $8 million piece of property.
Go to hell boram
Child exploitation
don’t think she did any of that
Which imbeciles are promoting, supporting this madness?
No thanks. i dont care.
What am I doing wrong with my life?
Kids don’t live to be kids anymore. Parents always looking for a way to cash in.
But...income inequality! 😂😂😂
Can't wait to read the next headline, 'Parents of Korean child YouTube star steal all her money for soju and plastic surgery'
JAR14_ we’re in the wrong business
You guys at CNN make it seem that the millions of us who struggle to make ends meat and bring in the bread and butter love reading these stories. What does that do? I think they just kill our spirit. Good for that girl and her family but do you guys have to shove it in our faces?
That’s nuts! 30M ppl with nothing better to do? This generation is doomed
I totally just watched a video 😒😒😒
WTF! How is this allowed or legal!!
Woahhhh 😯😯😯😯😯
I'm gonna go record my kids playing with toys now...brb
You mean her parents did.
Almost makes me wanna become a parent.
More like her parents bought the property.
Honey, noooo. Save that money and maybe one day you can pay for college in America
So interested in wanting to become youtuber
Meanwhile at age 6 i was buying lego property smh i should of started investing earlier on in the womb
that shows how hollow our life is , to give such a kid 'with alll the respect to kids' that much of attention which made her wealthy enough to buy multimillion dollars property!
South Korea w the extremely progressive move to allow children to purchase property.
And no kid of mine that age would be watching YouTube. What’s wrong with people?
Huh!
Child exploitation is all cute, so long as it keeps the masses entertained-right?
Money shows where our priorities are as a society
She will be normal for sure
sick
I’m sure the person pushing 70 and can’t afford to retire would enjoy this
Society deserves to die.
bollocks
Slick/low key child labor....
As if this 6 year old girl is behind this. Silly.

Kudos to her parents.
More like her parents did and she is likely being forced to do this crap via abuse like every other Youtube parent.
“She” meaning her parents and handlers. Two words: Gary Coleman.

Humans deserve to be extinct

Well ...
Wow, lovely.
Her parents stole her money. That is what Macaulay Culkin’s parents did in the Past. They should have kept her money on her bank account till her legal age.
One words weird
That Ohta get you a Pulitzer
amazing
CNN is fake news
Wow! Congrat
The world has gone cray cray
Imagine selling your company to a 6 year old millionaire
A rich girl’s Lil Tay. While the West is bad I’ve never seen a race exploit children like Asians do
Man, good for her and her parents.
