Period of Popularity
This meme first became known in 2014 with the release of Illionaire Records' song 'Yeongyeolgori'. Especially as the song frequently appeared on Mnet's 'Show Me The Money 3', which aired that same year and gained immense popularity, the hook 'Neowa! Naui! Yeongyeol! Gori! Igeon! Uri! Anui! Sori!' exploded in popularity, spreading beyond hip-hop fans to the general public. Since then, as Illionaire Records producers have used this song in their performances throughout the 'Show Me The Money' series, it has consistently been talked about, even earning nicknames like 'Ttokyeolgori' (Another Link) and 'Sagolgori' (Bone Broth Link, implying it's been used so much it's like extracting all flavor from bone broth).
Meaning
This meme originated from MC Meta's hook in Illionaire Records' song 'Yeongyeolgori'. The word 'Yeongyeolgori' originally means a "connecting link" or "connection point" between A and B. This meme is characterized by its unique flow, where words are rapidly broken into two-syllable chunks, fitting the Korean phonological system. This style of rapping, which sounds like it's being read in broken chunks, is sometimes called the 'Yeongyeolgori Flow'.
Demographics
This meme spread widely beyond hip-hop fans to the general public with the massive success of 'Show Me The Money 3' in 2014. At the time, its impact was so significant that if ordinary people were asked to rap, they would imitate this flow. It established itself as a popular meme that people of all ages and genders could easily sing along to and parody.
