Italian musician Davide Biale, known by his online alias “Davie504,” became the first YouTuber in Taiwan whose channel crossed the benchmark of 10 million subscribers, on Dec. 6. The 27-year-old YouTuber is known for playing the bass guitar online. Since his videos are in English, he can attract more fans from across the world.
Other top channels with most subscribers in Taiwan include: Jay Lee Painting (4.72 million subscribers), Vidol TV (3.9 million subscribers) and This Group of People (3.44 million subscribers). Surprisingly, YouTuber Xiaoyu’s channel is still followed by as many as 1.39 million users, despite his scandal of creating and selling “deepfake” porn videos featuring over 100 politicians and celebrities.
Early this month, YouTube named “Pui Pui Molcar” as the most-viewed video on the online video platform in Taiwan this year. The show is a Japanese stop-motion mini anime series featuring several guinea pig-shaped cars, known as “Molcars.”
