What 트민남 means
Short for 트렌드에 민감한 남자, “a man sensitive to trends.” Someone quick to spot and try new things in fashion, food or tech. The female form is 트민녀.
Origin
A nickname TV host Jun Hyun-moo picked up when he started decorating his home with trendy items on MBC's “I Live Alone” (Tenasia, Jul 10, 2022). Who first coined the word itself isn't confirmed.
Usage
“You're so 트민남 today” is closer to a witty compliment than a jab (Etoday). Catch a trend too late, though, and the same word becomes a joke.
Lately
When Jun mentioned the “Dubai chewy cookie” (두쫀쿠) on air in January 2026, some online commenters dubbed him a “trend cutter” (Xports News).
