"I started the channel when I was 13 as a passion project and you 100pc have to be fully passionate to make YouTube work. Because being passionate about something will mean you can create the best work you can.
"I love everything I do for creating content on YouTube."
Mr Park says that now that he has hit the one million mark he hopes to expand beyond the computer monitor and on to the stage and even the big screen.
"I'd love to one day host my own live shows or feature in a movie," he added.
"I'd make it as cheap as possible to watch but I think I’d need to grow the channel to have a big enough audience to want to come watch me live in person."
