This meme began to gain popularity with the explosive success of the SBS drama 'Secret Garden,' which aired from November 2010 to January 2011. Thanks to the drama's high viewership ratings and widespread buzz, the famous lines of Kim Joo-won, the character played by actor Hyun Bin, quickly spread throughout popular culture and have since become classic memes that are still frequently referenced today.

This meme originated from the lines that perfectly showcase the unique and prickly personality of Kim Joo-won (played by Hyun Bin), the protagonist of the drama 'Secret Garden.'

• "Is this your best? Are you sure?": This expression is used when one is not satisfied with a certain outcome or situation, or when wanting to confirm if there are no better alternatives. It is sometimes used to sarcastically criticize someone's effort or result, or to humorously express a perfectionist attitude.
• "A master craftsman who's made only tracksuits for 40 years in Italy, meticulously crafted this stitch by stitch.": This line symbolizes Kim Joo-won's pretentiousness and unique taste. It is used to excessively exaggerate ordinary or somewhat ridiculous items, or to satirically express an excessive attachment to a particular object. It is especially recalled in conjunction with the sparkly tracksuit Kim Joo-won wore.
• "Ms. Gil Ra-im, since when have you been so pretty?": This is used when complimenting someone, or when giving a somewhat cheesy or exaggerated compliment humorously. It captures Kim Joo-won's cringeworthy charm from the drama.

The drama 'Secret Garden' sparked a nationwide sensation, exceeding 35% in peak viewership ratings. Therefore, this meme is widely recognized and used across all generations, not limited to a specific age or gender. It tends to be used more familiarly by those in their late 20s to over 40s who directly watched the drama.
