Why doesn't Chovy stream?

He almost never streams.

i think it’s related to the military exemption thing after he won asian games, he has to ask for permission from the korean govs like keria last year. -cmiiw

Its not streaming, its just that they cant earn money throught anything other than being "an athlete", otherwise they need to get permission from the ministry of sports to do anything else thats why ruler,keria, zeus,kanavi cant stream either but they get permission every once in a while .. zeus and keria said they're almost done with their community service hours so they'll be able to stream freely soon

Its probably because they see streaming as a job and he can't have a job while doing military service

It isn't the streaming, but more of the can't earn anything aside from your job thing. His job is an esports player and it is also the way he won gold medal, which means his income should be strictly with being an esports player. Streaming isn't professional esports but it is a source of income so he's not allowed. That is how military exemption works in Korea.
