Lily Ki (born November 20, 1991), better known as LilyPichu, is an American online streamer, voice actress, artist and YouTuber. She is a member of OfflineTV, an online group of content creators, and was one of the most subscribed female Twitch streamers in the late 2010s and early 2020s. She remains one of the most followed female streamers on the platform. As a voice actress, she is most well-known for the voice of Genshin Impact character Sayu and the English dub voice of Muni Ohnaruto in D4DJ First Mix. Ki began creating videos on YouTube in June 2010 and streaming on Twitch in August 2012. After ten years of streaming on Twitch, she signed an exclusive contract with YouTube in July 2022 and announced the move to the platform. However, as of July 12, 2024, Ki returned to streaming on Twitch after her contract deal with YouTube expired.

Early life and education

Ki was born on November 20, 1991, in Queens, New York. Her family lived in The Bronx before moving to North Jersey. She is of Korean descent, and has a brother named Daniel. Ki grew up in a musical household and began playing the piano at a young age, but she also had an interest in art and illustration. She received an associate's degree in Arts and Music at a community college.

Ki's content includes gaming, art, and music. She first gained popularity in 2011 when her parody song "I'll Quit LoL" went viral on YouTube. In 2015, she made her musical debut with the release of her extended play Lilies. In July 2017, a video of Ki playing the melodica to unsuspecting cosplayers at PopCon Indy also went viral, becoming her most viewed YouTube video to date. That same month, she joined OfflineTV, an online social entertainment group of content creators. In September 2018, Riot Games launched a series of ads on YouTube for League of Legends which featured Ki and other content creators.

Ki was the fifth most-watched female Twitch streamer in 2020. In 2020, she was nominated for the Shorty Award for Twitch Streamer of the Year. That same year, she appeared in an advertisement for 5 Gum. In 2021, Ki appeared in the music video for Bella Poarch and Sub Urban's song "Inferno", where she cameoed alongside several other content creators. At the 1st Streamer Awards in 2022, Ki was nominated for Best League of Legends Streamer and Best Music Streamer, winning for the latter.

In July 2022, it was announced that Ki had signed exclusively with YouTube and will no longer stream on Twitch.

Personal life

In 2018, Ki began dating YouTuber Albert Chang, better known as Sleightlymusical, and in 2019, they separated after he had an affair. On February 21, 2020, Ki confirmed on a livestream that she and fellow OfflineTV member Michael Reeves were in a relationship.

On June 27, 2020, Ki and Yvonne "Yvonnie" Ng came forward with sexual misconduct allegations against former OfflineTV member Federico "Fedmyster" Gaytan, stating that he would enter her room uninvited and make inappropriate advances on her. Gaytan was removed from the group following the allegations, and in the week following his removal, six members of OfflineTV came forward with stories of his inappropriate and manipulative behavior.
