Witnessed ET Posted September 18, 2023 Posted September 18, 2023 12 minutes ago, Green Tea Is Green said: Jihyo of TWICE Talks ‘Killin Me Good,’ Solo Identity, and Being Mother Jihyo, leader of the iconic K-pop girl group TWICE, isn’t exactly sure what “mother” means. In the Internet sense, it’s slang for “a woman who's iconic and constantly serves,” according to Urban Dictionary, and is rooted in the Black and Latinx LGBTQIA+ ballroom community. Calling someone “mother” is shorthand for boss, badass, untouchable queen. “Umma?” Jihyo echoes and translates the nickname foreign fans call her, while looking amusedly at her translator in a dressing room. “I honestly didn’t know that. I’m only finding out the meaning of it now.” The 26-year-old Korean popstar silently mouths an “ah!” as she leans back in her seat for a quick second; she suddenly remembers seeing the word often in the comments of her viral fancams on YouTube and TikTok (see “Fancy”, “More & More” and “Alcohol Free” fancams) and Instagram posts online. “As you mentioned and explained it to me, I think it’s very funny,” she nods with a light chuckle of approval. “It’s funny that fans call me that and also think about me as that kind of figure.” Please not “umma” 1

Save-Me-Oprah Posted September 19, 2023 Posted September 19, 2023 I hope the pronunciation on Griddle's English album doesn't end up like Kwinka I hope they had fluent English speakers guide them in the studio (and I have high hopes based on I Do)
