We found an app that lets you buy anything for $0

Sam, we've been doing it all wrong. This whole business thing, this building thing, we've been doing it all wrong.
See, we thought you have to build a product, that product has to do something, has to add value, solve a problem. And here, I will read you this tweet.
This is from Next to TV. They say, dopamine websites are the new trend in South Korea. These services let users endlessly browse food delivery menus, read reviews, fill their shopping carts, and even track their shipment. But the only catch, none of it's real. You're not really placing an order for anything. There are also virtual smoke breaks where you can join anonymous people in chat rooms to recreate the feeling of taking a smoke break without having to smoke a cigarette. The idea is simple. Give people the familiar dopamine hit without them having to actually spend any money, leave the house, smoke or do anything else along those habits. And these are becoming incredibly popular in South Korea, apparently.

Is this the same country that's having a massive birth rate issue?
It checks out if they're going to create virtual smoke rooms and fake buy stuff. What the heck, guys?

**Sam Parr** (1:12)
So the trend started this year, and it's basically Korean Gen Z. They sort of realized that a lot of the fun in online shopping is just browsing. It's just putting things in the cart. It's hitting checkout. Getting the actual product is, sure, maybe that adds some value, but there's a lot of fun in just the other side of it. And so you can see here, I can pull one of them up. Let me open. So this is an app called Food Never Comes.
And all right, so check this out. So you open up the app, and you can select rabbit or turtle delivery, so fast or slow. Should we pay for fast or slow?

**Shaan Puri** (1:53)
I guess we should pay for fast. I want to get my things up quickly.

**Sam Parr** (1:56)
Let's treat ourselves. Okay, so now there's a fried chicken restaurant. So we can have the half and half crispy chicken, the cheese balls, got to go with the cheese balls. Maybe the soy glazed chicken will go spicy.
We'll add a cola, add to cart, and then we can go ahead, we could check out, we put in our info here, and then we could watch this delivery make its way to our house, never actually come. And that's it. It's the blue balls of entrepreneurship, Sam. Are you in or are you out?

**Shaan Puri** (2:24)
Dude, how can this group of people who have brought us such amazing things like the Kia Telluride or Samsung.

**Sam Parr** (2:31)
We pop Demon Hunters.

**Shaan Puri** (2:32)
Yeah, like go and do something so stupid. The Koreans, you guys really are like the barbell strategy of life. They're bringing us such amazing, wonderful goodness and such silliness. I guess I don't get this. Why are people doing this?

**Sam Parr** (2:44)
On behalf of our huge, I'm sure, South Korean followership, I will defend this by posting a picture of the White House this weekend where there was a giant motorcycle doing a backflip in front of the White House in preparation for UFC 250 to celebrate the birth of America. Two dudes in their underwear beating each other up in the White House lawn.

**Shaan Puri** (3:07)
You don't think that a fist fight on the White House lawn is appropriate? An organized fist fight?

**Sam Parr** (3:13)
Where a Frenchman beats up a Brazilian? Yeah. America.

**Shaan Puri** (3:16)
Yeah. Look, I didn't say that we both can't be stupid. I'm just saying that this is wild. Are these things actually popular?

**Sam Parr** (3:25)
Now, I can't tell. Obviously, this makes for an amazing headline. There's also a reason that I opened up the show with it because it's just funny to talk about and make fun of.

**Shaan Puri** (3:32)
But there's not a lot of Korean people on Twitter, so we can't exactly refute this.
It feels like Japan and America have separate internets. Have you ever gone to a Japanese website? They kind of do. It's kind of challenging to use, obviously, even if it's just translated, it's still totally separate and it's quite hard. So are there any proper Korean people on Twitter to refute this story, or can we just make up falsehoods about-

**Sam Parr** (3:58)
I think we just make it up. It's like the good version of the Hunter Biden laptop story, it's the South Korean fake door-to-door story. Have you ever studied Eastern Internet?
People study Eastern philosophy. Have you ever studied Eastern Internet?
