Origin · Source
The expression comes from Son Min-su, a character in the Korean webtoon Cheese in the Trap. Because the character obsessively copies Hong Seol’s style and behavior, Korean internet users began using 손민수 as a noun and 손민수하다 as a verb for copying someone’s look, taste, or items. The exact first online use is hard to pin down, but the term spread widely with the webtoon and later drama fandom.
