Ssaksseuri-related Buzzwords

Ssaksseuri Gwanryeon Yuhaengeo (Pronounced roughly as "Ssahk-sseu-ree Gwan-ryeon Yoo-haeng-uh")

This meme began to gain significant popularity in the summer of 2020, as the co-ed dance group SSAK3 was formed and active through the MBC variety show 'Hangout with Yoo?' (놀면 뭐하니?). From May 30, 2020, when Lee Hyori and Rain first joined, until August 15, when the group's activities officially concluded, for approximately three months, it captivated South Korea and generated various buzzwords.

'Ssaksseuri-related buzzwords' collectively refer to various expressions associated with the project group 'Ssaksseuri,' formed by three members — Yoo Jae-suk (Yoo Dragon), Lee Hyori (Linda G), and Rain (B-Ryong) — on 'Hangout with Yoo?'. The group name 'Ssaksseuri' carries the ambition to 'sweep' (싹쓸이, ssaksseuri) music charts and awards ceremonies, as well as signifying that there are 'three' members. This group was planned with the goal of reviving 90s summer dance music and co-ed groups. The members' unique 'sub-character' (부캐, bu-kae) settings, along with their distinctive speech patterns and actions, became popular catchphrases.

Key buzzwords include the members' sub-character names themselves: 'Yoo Dragon,' 'Linda G,' and 'B-Ryong,' which gained immense popularity. The group's signature greeting, "Ssaksseuri Keo-keo-keo-keo-come on!" was also widely used. Furthermore, the phrase the members used to introduce themselves — "This is B-Ryong, in charge of being unlikable. This is Linda G, in charge of being rude. This is Yoo Dragon, in charge of being unknown. We demand much love!" — also became a big topic. Hwang Kwang-hee's nickname 'Suballom' (meaning 'servant guy'), earned while acting as manager and guest member, and Ssaksseuri's signature choreography, the 'Backstroke Dance,' also spread as memes.

Ssaksseuri-related buzzwords were loved by a wide age range, from people in their 20s to 50s. They garnered significant enthusiasm, particularly among those in their 30s to 50s who experienced 90s culture, evoking nostalgia. They also provided fresh entertainment to the 2049 generation (people in their 20s to 40s), who are the main viewership of 'Hangout with Yoo?', making them popular across all generations and among both men and women.
