The interaction appears casual, with Huang speaking directly to the vendor as curious onlookers watch the scene unfold.

Claim Of Paying For Entire Queue

The clip, shared on X by @CryptoMaster_70, quickly gained traction online.

According to the post, Huang did not simply try to skip the line but instead offered to cover the cost of everyone’s orders at the stall while waiting for his own grilled corn.

He is also seen interacting with the stall owner and reacting enthusiastically after tasting the food, calling it “super delicious” and praising the stall’s popularity.

Taiwan Visit And Night Market Sightings

Huang has been in Taiwan recently and was also spotted at popular night markets such as Raohe Night Market, according to videos shared by Nvidia on May 24.

Dressed casually and surrounded by crowds, he was seen sampling street food, interacting with fans, and moving through busy lanes like any other visitor, though with significantly more attention than most.

Mixed Social Media Reactions

Reactions online were divided over the gesture.

A woman present at the stall later said she initially expected only a brief interaction through his security team, but Huang instead walked up directly, offered to pay, and engaged with both the vendor and people waiting nearby.

One user wrote, “The people actually affected are those already standing in line, so why give the money to the vendor instead of just waiting?”

Another commented, “I used to respect him, but this feels like he believes money can buy any privilege. He could have simply waited his turn and still treated everyone later.”

However, others defended the moment.

One user said, “Bro could buy the entire night market if he wanted to.”

Another added, “He didn’t directly say he would pay to cut the line, he just covered everyone’s order, so it doesn’t really upset those waiting and the money is spent generously.”
