We gather newly rising and long-lasting memes. We don't judge — we show them as-is. The interpretation is up to you.
Originated from the bizarre Korean localization of the game "Might and Magic 6," best known for the line "Greetings! Strong and powerful morning." Now refers broadly to any awkward, overly formal speech style reminiscent of bad translations.
A line from the historical drama "Taejo Wang Geon," where King Gungye explodes in fury over a subject's cough. Used to mock wildly overreacting to a trivial sound or slight — one of Korea's oldest, most enduring reaction memes.
A line shouted by the character Sim Yeong in the historical drama "Yain Sidae" ("Age of Heroes"). It kicked off Korea's golden age of internet mashup/remix memes in the 2000s and remains one of the longest-running memes, still used over 20 years later.
From singer Na Hoon-a's song "Tes-hyung!," which calls Socrates "hyung" (older brother); used in lines like "Tes-hyung, why is the world like this."
A citizen's garbled shout -- meant to be the show's title "Muhan Dojeon" but coming out as "Muyaho" -- captured on a variety show's Alaska episode. Rediscovered a decade later, it became a national meme for pure excitement.
