Seo Kyung-duk, a professor at Sungshin Women's University, wrote today (11th) that "I received a tip that there is a small sign called 'Jonmattaeng' in the hallway of a Japanese restaurant that is mainly used by Korean group tourists," adding, "Jonmattaeng (JMT) is a slang word often used on the Internet to mean that it is really delicious."
"Slurping is becoming more widely used by Internet users day by day. Appropriately used slang has a much greater effect on expressions than the use of official languages, he said. "But it is clear that these scenes will continue to emerge from abroad if we overdo it." We must reflect on ourselves first," he added.
Previously, 'Gaejon-flavored Kimchi' was released in Japan last year, causing great controversy over the product name on social networking services (SNS). At that time, they were divided into opinions that "slangs should not be used as product names" and "it's okay because it's an expression commonly used by Koreans."
