Meme Name: 내가 없어져볼게 #

"Nae-ga Eop-seo-jyeo-bol-ge" (pronounced roughly like "Nay-gah Up-suh-jyuh-bol-geh")

This meme originated from a video first appearing during the Cyworld era, but it didn't gain significant attention at the time. It later began to gain popularity as the video was re-uploaded and spread across platforms like YouTube and Facebook. Parody videos started to go viral around 2015, marking the beginning of its widespread trend. In 2018, the original creator released "Naega Eopseojyeobolge Part 2," further solidifying its popularity. The meme continued to be consistently loved, with the original creator even appearing on "Geunhwang Olympic" in September 2023, bringing it back into the spotlight.

The "Naega Eopseojyeobolge" (I'll try to disappear) meme began with a short video featuring a man saying, "Annyeong! Naega eopseo.. eopseojyeobolge hana dul set yap!" (Hello! I'm gone.. I'll try to disappear, one, two, three, zap!) and then awkwardly pretending to vanish. The core of this meme lies in its "byeongmat" (absurd/cringey) humor and comedic appeal, stemming from the awkward pose, quirky lines, and the characteristic editing style of old internet videos. The humor isn't in actually disappearing, but in the act of pretending to disappear, finding amusement in unexpected situations or clumsy attempts.

This meme has spread across various online platforms like YouTube and Facebook, gaining popularity among a broad audience, including not only the general public but also famous YouTubers, celebrities, and internet broadcasters who have participated in parodies. It evokes nostalgia for generations who experienced Cyworld culture and appeals to younger generations with its fresh B-grade sensibility, making it popular across all ages and genders.

This meme is primarily used to create humorous situations by imitating the lines and actions from the original video.

It is most appropriate to use this meme among people who understand its comedic code.
