History

There is no designated person who’s credited in creating Korean slang. One of the primary reasons as to why it began to develop quickly and abundantly and become more popular is due to the booming economy that surprised its neighboring countries, China and Japan. The economic efficiency allowed Koreans to produce a more shortened version of certain phrases and words. (첨 = 처음)
Just as English speakers used leet, “an alternative alphabet for the English language that is primarily used on the Internet” or other forms, Korean internet slang (인터넷용어) was developed especially during the 1990s, when the use of technology boomed. Some words were made because people typed them fast but used the incorrect spelling anyway (뭥미? = 뭐임?). In the 2000s, Koreans started to use more of the English alphabet, since it was the global language. Internet games and television shows, such as soap operas, also influence the everyday language, such as 방꾸똥꾸 from the famous comedy drama “High Kick Through the Roof” in 2009.
