기세 성대모사

'Gise Seongdaemosa' began gaining significant popularity in mid-2025, originating from the web variety show 'Jeongwaja' (전과자) featuring EXO member Kai.

This meme is less about actual vocal mimicry and more about expressing a subject with "gise" (기세), which refers to confidence and assertiveness. The core idea is not to imitate the vocal characteristics of a person or object, but rather to declare oneself as that subject and act accordingly. For instance, one might point to a sofa and say, "Hello, I am Sammoon," or recite lines from actor Song Kang-ho while using a completely different voice. The humor of this meme stems from the absence of genuine vocal imitation, compensated by overwhelming confidence.

Mainly used by young people aged 10 to 30, especially generations familiar with K-Pop fandoms and internet memes. It gained particular popularity among EXO-Ls (EXO's fandom) and spread widely among those who enjoy web variety shows and YouTube content.

• "Hello, I am singer IU. Let's eat chicken together today."
• "Hello, I am a Titan from Attack on Titan. Everyone seems so small today."
• "Hello, I am Jjanggu (Crayon Shin-chan). Please don't stop me today."
• "Hello, I am Pikachu."

Since 'Gise Seongdaemosa' does not involve imitating an actual person's voice, it's best not to use it in serious situations or where respect for others is required. It should be used lightly for enjoyment in humorous contexts, and caution is advised as it could be misunderstood as belittling or mocking someone.
