Oh btw if you were wondering, ASMR (or асмр in Russian, for SEO :P) is a tingly feeling people get from sounds and visual stimuli (for example whispering, tapping or hand movements), these tingles are very relaxing :) however, even for those who don't experience ASMR the videos often still help them sleep and battle insomnia, like ASMR does for me. I go by Luuk/Obviously, but my Korean fanbase calls me 오슬희 (Oh Seul-Hee) ❤️
