Human Trafficking Survivor Story — Behind Aurora’s cheerful social media persona lies a traumatic past. The Chinese-born, Thailand-based influencer – known to her 5 million followers as “Tofu Sister” – recently shocked fans by revealing she’s a human trafficking survivor now searching for her biological family.
A Viral Confession Reveals a Dark Past
In a June 30 video that’s since gone viral, the early-20s influencer shared:
- Last memory of her biological family: Playing by a river with loving siblings
- How her father took her on a motorcycle ride, then forced her to call a stranger “mom”
- Being kidnapped shortly after and sold to a 50-year-old man in Henan Province
“I suffered physical abuse, sexual violence, and nearly gave up on life,” Aurora confessed, explaining why she’s now going public after a decade of silence.
From Trauma to Triumph: Aurora’s Journey
Despite her horrific childhood, Aurora:
- Self-taught Thai and relocated to Thailand in 2022
- Built a successful e-commerce business
- Became a beloved content creator (her tofu-reviewing video went viral)
Yet the emotional scars remain: “I still dream of my parents’ faces.”
The Search Goes Global
Aurora’s plea for help includes:
- A childhood photo taken by traffickers at what netizens believe is Guangzhou North Station
- An official police report filed in Guangzhou (investigation ongoing)
- Crowdsourcing tips from her international follower base
“I don’t need much – just to know if they’re alive and well,” she says.
