originThe exact first use is hard to pin down, but it likely spread with early-to-mid 2010s Yaminjeongeum wordplay from DCInside-style online communities. The expression comes from visually replacing 대 in 대기업 with the similar-looking 머, then later expanded naturally to mean any large-scale online creator or channel.
