figuring out what are essentially niche kr memes to us but probably pretty famous in its home country hidden in otome isekai and manhwa by extension is pretty fun actually. ive gotten quite good at it but ill never know them all and also theyll keep coming bcs its sourced from the internet and the internet always has something more in store,, also secondhandedly consuming memes in this way will never be equal to what actual meme enjoyers do, actually go and look for them but its nice in its own way, little bubble to glimpse into pop culture of another place but not fully,,

i do sometimes wonder if ive missed the origin point of something truly iconic thats being referenced in the panels of the greatest estate developer but ill never really know unless someone knowledgeable enough does a deep dive

adding tags bcs id like to find this thought again
