"TikTokers are obsessed with the platform's CEO after he battled Congress during Thursday's hearing on whether to ban the app in the US amid security concerns. Users thought Shou Zi Chew faced undue pressure — and handled it so well — that they're now sharing cutesy tributes and other "thirst-trap" videos of him.
TikTokers truly have no chill.
One of the most shared clips, with over 1.3 million views, features several superimposed images of Chew from the hearing set to the popular song "OMG" from K-pop group NewJeans. "Yall fr simping for the CEO of TikTok," a top comment read."
