origin · Source
The phrase comes from the ordinary verb "찢다," meaning "to tear." In entertainment, sports, hip-hop, idol fandom, and online comment culture, "무대를 찢다" and "찢었다" spread as hype reactions for a performance or result that felt overwhelming. The exact first use is unclear, so 2010 is an approximate marker for its broader online and pop-culture spread rather than a confirmed coinage year.

"That comeback in the last round was seriously legendary."
origin레게노 is commonly traced to clips from Korean internet broadcaster Woowakgood’s gaming content, where the English caption LEGEND was read as LEGENO. The exact live-broadcast moment is often referenced through fan clips, so the year is approximate, but the term spread widely through YouTube, communities, and chat as a playful substitute for 레전드.
