> Turns out that somehow Midjourney is so commonly searched for, that Google has started serving them in search results for a meaningless English phrase that just means a Korean forgot to switch off of their English keyboard when searching for.
BTW, this happens all the time in Korea, because it's extremely common for someone to type something while forgetting to switch to the correct input method. Try these, for example:
추ㅜ
gozjsbtm
elwmsl
vkdlTjs
- lifthrasiir 10mo agoIt gets even better! EBS (한국교육방송 Educational Broadcasting System) is using "듄 dyun" as one of its brands, which is one of such mis-transliterated words. Cyworld [EDIT: got confused], a once-popular SNS in Korea, once went by "쵸재깅 chyojaeging" in the similar way. (Both words have absolutely no meaning in Korean, suggesting that it was transliterated from QWERTY to a Hangul keyboard layout.)
- ta8884844 10mo agoI think you meant Cyworld instead of Tistory.
- lifthrasiir 10mo agoOops, you are right (edited, thanks!). Tistory was 샨새교 instead.
- r_lee 10mo agoand for the people that don't know, its not just because they forgot to switch, sometimes it's just faster, e.g. YouTube search also recognizes Hangul sequences in Latin if you type them out you can also swear in a comedic way by just typing the Hangul sequence in Latin e.g. tlqkf
