When fame tastes sweet, how far can you go before it turns sour? With AI influencer robots taking the internet by storm, Mikah and his friends team up to make their own content. No robots, no AI, just human beings in all their fallible glory.
Mikah’s mukbang channel where he stuffs his face with food soars to great heights, but what will happen when his body can no longer fly?
Funny, dramatic, and with a deliciously dark ending, Sweet and Sour is perfect for those who love a Black Mirror twist. Take the Korean culture trend of mukbang, add followers and fame - and get a twist you'll never see coming.
Drawing on the author's experience of working with influencers, the story explores internet culture and the pitfalls of AI.
