/so-i-bo-i/
소이보이 comes from the English internet slang “Soy boy,” a derogatory meme used to mock a man as supposedly weak, soft, or not masculine enough. In Korean online use, it is usually discussed as borrowed global meme slang, especially around Chad, alpha male, simp, and crypto/NFT communities.
Examples
2- "That community calls anyone who panics during a market dip a soy boy, but it is clearly meant as an insult."
- "The post compared Chad and soy boy memes, but the comments got pretty toxic fast."

Origin · Source
“Soy boy” spread in English-speaking internet meme spaces in the mid-to-late 2010s, though the exact first use is unclear. It grew from an online claim that soy or phytoestrogens reduce masculinity, then became a broader insult for men mocked as weak, overly soft, politically progressive, or unable to handle pressure; Korean users usually encounter it as imported meme vocabulary rather than a native Korean coinage.
