TikToker rushes to post 'saint-like behavior'

TikTok, which has grown to become one of the world's largest video sharing platforms, posts a large number of movies every day. Many of the posted movies do not have the permission of the subject, and the person who was the subject may make unnecessary edits. Even in such unauthorized posting movies, criticisms such as 'making the person of the subject into a thing' are concentrated on 'a movie that shoots a saint-like behavior from a distance'.
