개드립

gae-deu-lib

give up on the ad-lib; NOT funny

What does 개드립 mean?

give up on the ad-lib; NOT funny.

Literally, gae or dog (meaning something really bad – related to the English “bitch,” but think “dog-tired”) combined with ad-lib (or improvising), this expression is used to tell someone that they are so NOT funny, to give it up or to just get over themselves.

문자 그대로, 개 (무언가 아주 나쁜 것을 의미 – 영어의 bitch와 유사)와 에드립의 합성 어. 이 표현은 누군가 재미없는 사람에게 사용된다.

From the original card

Literally "dog" (meaning something really bad - related to the English for "bitch") combined with "ad-lib," this expression is used to tell someone that they are NOT funny.

MyungBak 악, 정희. . . 소식 들었어? 네 딸이 나한테 덤비고 있어. 무덤 속에서 탄식하고 있겠네. 내가 기가 막혀서!
ChungHee 명박아, 명박아, 내 딸은 분명히 널 꺾고 말거야!
MyungBak 하! 그거 재미있네, 웃겨 진짜! 야 개드립 떨지마! 여자 대통령! 허!
ChungHee 그리고 네 나이 반도 되지 않는 북한 독재자는 널 약해 보이게 할거야!
MyungBak 개드립 더 떨어봐! 말도 안 되는 소리!

명박 Ach, ChungHee… did you hear? Your daughter is running against me. I’ll bet you’re turning over in your grave. How absurd!
