The dance was known online as the Jubi Slide after TikToker Jubi2fye posted it in 2022, but in Korea it spread widely in 2023 as the Slickback challenge. The Korean name comes from the track “A Pimp Named Slickback” by Lakim, whose repeated “Slickback” sound stood out in short-form videos. Exact Korean spread routes vary by repost, TikTok, Reels, and YouTube Shorts, so the year refers to its major Korean viral moment.

"That creator’s comeback video hit the trending videos list right away."
originThe expression spread as a short way to refer to YouTube’s “인기 급상승 동영상” section. Even as YouTube has shifted toward Charts, recommendations, Shorts, and category-based discovery, “인급동” remains a familiar Korean internet expression for a video that is visibly trending.

originThe exact first source is uncertain, but the expression spread widely around 2020–2021 through online communities, streaming culture, and entertainment captions. It combines a dialect-like “머선” for “무슨” with 129 read as 일-이-구, making it a compact visual pun for “무슨 일이고?”

originThe phrase likely spread from Korean online communities and social media as a compressed form of “이게 왜 진짜야?” Exact first use is unclear, but it became common in comment sections when unbelievable news, rumors, game results, or absurd screenshots turned out to be real rather than fake or staged.
