02Documented history

  1. 2026-06-07JoongAng Ilbo reported on a blind date program using a daily video sharing app and a case of university students' participation.[1]

03Origin & word formation

JoongAng Ilbo's 2026 article describes a program in which participants share daily-life videos in a Setlog app room for three days and find out on the last day whether their interest is mutual. The evidence concerns that organizer's program, not a general name for all online blind dating. The expression's earliest use has not been verified.

Evidence for the origin explanationMedium

The source supports the meaning and usage context. As it is a single source, the earliest use and route of spread still need checking.
