Omg I remember when this was the coolest thing. So cool that she’s made a business out of something she loves 💜💜

[@jujub4553]

I don’t even know her but I’m so proud of her lol! Go girl!!! 18 with a huge business and a Tesla!

[@silence_your_ego]

We’ve been buying your slime for years. Love your story. Go girl!

[@gfplaydoughpeople]

These types of videos have taught me so much! I bought into the "work during naptime" web jobs for moms for way too long. I'm finally doing a similar business with playdough, and it actually seems like it will work.

[@jedimasterspidermad5173]

This girl has the best slimes. If you need something to relieve your anxiety I highly recommend her slimes.

[@miamendoza2462]

So proud of you Jungmin!

[@asahela1]

I just discovered her on Tiktok. Recently, I have an obsession for slime. I am so proud of her as a young business owner. Everything what she does will be successful.

I wouldnt stress too much about school. She already have all the skills to suceed in life.

[@laquanlewis1590]

That's a cool business. And the kids definitely LOVE slime. And you have scents to it, oh that's definitely a plus. You give me inspiration to continue the start up of my company. Just the fact of keeping from being overwhelmed.

Wow your a fighter for sure! We all love ur hip hop and raps!! Keep working hard champ one day it will all be worth it.❤

I was literally so obsessed with slime a few years ago. Didn’t realise it was so big now!

[@ThisandThatcreations]

You Go Girl Keep doing what you wanna do and don’t let anybody tell you that you can’t! I’m thinking about starting a little slime shop at my school and watching your videos has really helped a lot so please keep doing what you’re doing and never give up ❤

[@FarmerDrew]

This is exactly what Adam Smith was talking about, the invisible hand, and nowadays the invisible hand delivers you slime 🤟🤠👍

yes jungmin!!!! 🥳🥳🥳🥳

[@random_programmer]

Good on you! It's really cool seeing success stories like this. Something I am curious about is the financial side of things. That is a realm that I have no true yen for, so seeing how others navigate it

Awesome !!!!!

Grind up small pharaoh magnets and put them inside the silly putty and then you could have magnetic silly putty just a thought enjoy

You go girl. My son is also interested in starting a slime business lol. He's eleven. He wants to name it Goop International. I showed him this video for some inspiration and motivation. He asked me to ask if there is any advice you could give him. 🙂👍💕

[@Comet_IsAfurry]

Tell him to stock up before starting, if something is in high demand or really wanted then tell him to put a higher price if something is not being bought or on low demand then put the price lower so more people buy it.

Im also stocking up in slime for a slime buisness

Does your son have a good recipe for slime?

[@ericwandless7966]

In the early eighties, slime with worms was the in thing. Sold in little plastic garbage barrels. It was awesome until it came in contact with carpeting or pet hair. Then, sadly, my slime became too gross to enjoy.

[@vivribs218]

I am starting a slime business at 11 I just need to get my lisenses

[@mariagalenagacha9280]

You don’t exactly need a license to start it you could just sell slimes on Facebook and then once your business takes off more you can get a license ^^

[@ifeomanjoku93]

Is this slime biodegradable? Considering the effect on the environment

[@Pie_is_me]

It is pretty mutch just glue, borax and coloring

[@Josie-6]

So clearly you’ve been MIA for literal decades of children’s toys that are colorful and smell like food.

[@KaeBae_]

A lot of these businesses have toy insurance and put disclaimers on the products to inform the customer about it. Even with all of the warnings and labels, there will always be someone who ignores important information and do dangerous things no matter what.
