| I have to say I'm partial to 키보드 워리어. It's the perfect description of a certain all too common type. It's colorful, contemptuous and dismissive. |

Let's look at popular expressions Koreans use for name-calling online.
찌질이: close to a mix of 10% 'fool,' 10% 'snob' and 80% 'loser.' I guess this is the most popular term. It's easy to romanize; "ziziri."
폐인: 'the abandoned.' Someone who spends all day on a single stuff and got nothing else/better to do.
안여돼(안경 여드름 돼지): 'glassed and pimple-headed pig.'
키보드 워리어(키워): 'keyboard warrior.'
오타쿠/오덕후: 'Otaku' (a Japanese word). |
What about "초딩"? Tell us about "초딩".  |
Oh how did I forget to mention 초딩.. which basically is a slang word meaning 'elementary school students'... or any people who have no better level of insights than them.
초글링 is a funny compound word. 초딩 + 저글링(zergling, the weakest but annoying and massive-in-quantity combat unit in Starcraft)
