origin · Source

찍덕 likely formed inside Korean idol fandom by combining 찍다, “to take a photo or video,” with 덕후, “fan/otaku.” The exact first use is unclear, but the term was already visible in fandom and entertainment-news contexts by the mid-2010s, especially around airport photos, concerts, fansites, and so-called 대포 camera culture.

originThe term is shortened from “홈페이지 마스터” (homepage master), a phrase used in earlier Korean idol fandoms for people who operated personal fan homepages or fansites. As fandom activity moved from private homepages and fan cafes to Twitter/X, Instagram, and other social platforms, 홈마 came to mean a fan photographer or fansite account that posts polished idol photos, previews, and fancams. The exact first year is hard to verify, so 2000 is an approximate early-2000s fandom-era estimate.

"My bias in this group is Mina, but my ultimate favorite is still Jisoo."

origin최애 became widely recognizable through Korean fandom and otaku-style communities where fans needed a compact way to name their top favorite member, character, or work. The exact first use is hard to verify, but by the 2000s–2010s it was common across idol fandom, web communities, and later mainstream social media. Today it works beyond fandom, as in 최애 음식, 최애 카페, or 최애템.
