Live streaming has emerged as a powerful way to attract more consumers, the combination of entertainment and shopping increases revenue for businesses. This study investigates a sample of 471 respondents by using PLS_SEM to yield the empirical results. By providing a blend of useful information and engaging content, online stores can create a more enjoyable shopping experience that encourages revisit and repurchases. The mediation of pleasure and the moderating role of hedonic value are illustrated.

This research aims to fill the gap in the literature by providing empirical evidence on the critical role of entertainment in shaping consumer behavior in the context of the streaming trend of social media platforms, specifically in TikTok Live.
