===2020===
In May 2020, he moved to Georgia, United States, with a fiance company he was working. After four months in his position, he had an intuition to quit his job to focus on his YouTube series, Invisible River.
====TikTok====
After making a decision, he decided to quit his job and started making TikTok's daily while editing his series.
He first didn't get popular on TikTok until on August 17, 2020, he reposted his retainer video if it's still had interest. The video was published at 2 AM, and got over 10 million views by the end of the day. He decided to make a series of him cleaning his retainer with random household items by responding to his comments. For the next few months, he continued responding to the comments.
As his cleaning his container was not getting traction, he decided to make another series, Discount Dentist. By episode four, the video got 3 million views in the first day. As he continued editing Invisible River, the Discount Dentist series has been his biggest focus on TikTok and YouTube.
