I'm so confused.

What's a "BJ" in this context

Broadcast Jockey.

Have you ever heard of AFREECA TV? They popularize a lot of "BJs". It's basically where a girl becomes as flirtatious streamer of sorts. They wear outfits and often dance to songs or talk, etc. Often for tips or fans who give them money to dance to certain song or wear certain things etc. Generally speaking they are non nude.

It's basically the Korean equivalent of a non nude but flirtatious Twitch streamer.

Ellin from CRAYON POP, one of my favorite kpop groups became a popular BJ so I got the rundown on the whole thing.

Though in this particular instance it seems this site this ex-idol signed up for is 19+. I'm not familiar with it so it may be more sexual. I'm not sure.

I mean Korea tends to rate things like Bubble Pop 19+ so I'm sure it's ok I was alarmed for a second

I do know one of the Stellar girls it's on Afreeca. Sad, to be honest.

Yes it's not what I would generally want for my favs.

Ellin from CRAYON POP, one of my favorite groups is a top BJ. That's how I know about it.

I'm always conflicted.

On one had it's not exactly the direction I'd want for someone. It seems like often a direction born from a lack of options.

But on the other hand, if they want to do it and many seem to make very good money (Ellin seems to make a lot) who am I to deny their agency.

I don't know. It's one of those things that's hard to pin down.
