03Origin & word formation

The National Institute of Korean Language’s “2010년 신어 자료집” directly defines the expression in its section on words not yet listed in the dictionary. It gives its components as “style + entertainer”. Who first used it and when have not been verified.

Evidence for the origin explanationMedium

The entry and definition in one collection were directly checked. The older articles cited in the collection were not separately checked, so their dates were not used as the earliest verified date. The collection classifies it as a word not yet listed in the dictionary; this does not mean it first appeared in 2010.
