82. What does Delulu mean on TikTok?
This one is pretty simple: ‘Delulu’ just means delusional. It’s just a ‘girly pops’ way of joking about being delusional when it comes to literally anything, but mostly self-confidence. It’s not a self-deprecating thing, but more of a “who cares” confidence boosting thing. The term is said to have originated within the K-pop fandom, and has now become part of the wider TikTok lexicon. In one viral video posted by Moses Wong, the term is summed up perfectly: “In this generation, I believe that being delusional is one of the key factors to be happy. Remember guys, staying delulu is the solulu (solution). Think positive.”
