Streamer Commander ZICO (Park Kwang Woo, born 1980) garnered an impressive 397,561,870 star balloons (donations) over the past year on AfreecaTV through what's known as 'Excel Broadcasting.'

Excel Broadcasting is a platform that encourages competition among guest streamers by publicly disclosing the real-time donations they receive during broadcasts, motivating them to attract more donations. The name "Excel" originates from the idea of listing the streamers' names similar to organizing them in an Excel spreadsheet.

397,561,870 star balloons translate to a substantial sum of 397,561,700 KRW (~292,000 USD) when converted to real currency. While 20% of this amount goes as a commission to AfreecaTV, the remaining 318,481,496 KRW (~233,482.38 USD) is distributed among various streamers who participated in Excel Broadcasting. Though not all the earnings go directly to Commander ZICO, his influence in this sphere is undeniably significant.

Commander ZICO's influence has surpassed that of well-known streamers like ChulGu (Lee Ye Jun), K (Park Jung Kyu), Kim In Ho, and Seya (Park Dae Se), as he recently shared surprising news: his upcoming marriage to a female streamer named Jingjing Seoeun (Cho Seo Eun, born 1999), who happens to be 19 years younger than him.

The announcement of their marriage has left many astonished, considering the age gap between them. Even avid internet broadcast fans, accustomed to seeing unconventional couples, are taken aback.

Adding to the surprise is the fact that Commander ZICO is a divorcee. He had a previous marriage and even has a daughter from that union. In discussing his divorce, he once asserted his intention to retain custody rights.

Jingjing Seoeun, a former member of the trot girl group 'Aurora,' also made an appearance on TV Chosun's 'Tomorrow's Miss Trot' in 2019.

Meanwhile, Commander ZICO's 'Kwangwoosangsah Content' continues to thrive. From January 1st to May 14th, the streamer earned a total of 173,355,710 star balloons, equating to a value of 173,355,710 KRW (~127,167.30 USD). After the 20% currency exchange fee is paid to AfreecaTV, the net value stands at 138,684,568 KRW (~101,673.47 USD).

In the Excel Broadcasting star balloon rankings, K holds the 2nd position, followed by Kim In Ho in 3rd, and Chulgu in 4th.
