A DC Inside mashup-meme forum, the birthplace of Korean internet meme culture. Classics like "I'm Gojarani" and "Ppappinom" originated here.

Jjalbang Steady

Short for "jjallim bangji" ("prevent [post] deletion"). Originally images attached to forum posts so they wouldn't get deleted for lacking content; now means any meme image itself.

Yaminjeongeum (Look-Alike Hangul Swap) Steady

Originated on DC Inside's Kookya gallery. A wordplay that swaps Hangul letters for visually similar-looking ones (e.g. swapping the character 명 for 띵) -- the trick behind memes like "daengdaengi" (dog) and "ttingjak" (masterpiece).
