Charlene Chang became an Internet sensation overnight, attracting positive comments about her looks and her career choice

Being a butcher is rather physically demanding, and as such, there are fewer females working as butchers than there are males, and certainly way fewer young pretty girls butchering meat for a living.

In this day and age, paper qualifications have seem to have become a prerequisite, especially in urban cities. 25-year-old former philosophy student Charlene Chang used to juggle work while pursuing a degree at Fu Jen Catholic University, but decided to give up her studies and take over the family business in Taipei City’s Dongmen Market. Chang’s family has been in the butchering business for three generations.

She told reporters that her family are third generation butchers and that she decided to work there after taking a break from her studies.

Many wet markets are seeing a gradual decline in business as the younger generations prefer shopping for groceries in air-conditioned supermarkets. Needless to say, working in a humid market that smells of raw fish and meat is not quite a desirable career choice for many. However, Chang says that she grew up watching her grandmother run the pork stall, and decided to give up school to learn the ropes of the family business.

Since word got around that there was a cute girl working at the market, business has been brisk as many mums and grannies come by to get to know the fair lady better in hopes of introducing her to their sons and grandsons. Groups of young men also patronize the stall attempting to get her number. Some guys have even got pretty straight to the point, asking Chang how much pork they had to buy in order to get her number, and some asking for her contact on the LINE app.
