Origin · Source

The term comes from 자체 제작 콘텐츠, literally “self-produced content.” It spread widely as K-pop agencies and artists began using YouTube and other official channels to release regular web-variety episodes, vlogs, behind-the-scenes clips, and fan-focused videos outside traditional TV broadcasting. The exact first year is unclear, but it became especially common in fandom language in the late 2010s.
