origin‘Teto’ comes from testosterone, and ‘nam’ means man. Along with egen-nam, egen-nyeo, and teto-nyeo, it spread as a social-media personality meme that loosely sorts people by hormone-coded vibes, appearance, and dating preferences. It does not refer to actual hormone levels; it is closer to an exaggerated internet shorthand for a masculine, direct, high-drive aura.

originEgen-nyeo combines 'egen,' from estrogen, with 'nyeo,' meaning woman. It spread in the mid-2020s across Korean social media and online communities alongside teto-nam, teto-nyeo, and egen-nam as a personality-labeling meme. Rather than describing biological hormone levels, it playfully characterizes softness, emotional sensitivity, empathy, and calmness.
