Sunmi Shares Twitter Experience and Being Called “Boomer”


Sunmi Shares Twitter Experience and Being Called “Boomer”

During Sunmi's special Q&A session with fans via Twitter‘s Blueroom on the 30th of June, she was asked about the situation with her tweets and what she felt about Twitter. 

This question was brought up because back in early May, Sunmi posted a tweet sharing that she's considering taking a break from Twitter temporarily while she figured things out.

Sunmi shared that she once saw herself as someone who was trendy and up-to-date with Twitter and its culture. She realized that maybe how she saw herself was different from how people saw her.

People in general, including many of Sunmi's fans made a hobby of commenting “ok, boomer” and things like that as replies to her tweets. 

One of the replies to her tweets was highlighted in the Q&A. The said reply pointed out that Sunmi's tweets were very "ok boomer"-esque.  (update: the original user has since taken it down)

Sunmi appeared to be hurt over it as she admitted that she was old. 

She expressed her confusion over how people were reacting to her tweets and calling her a boomer because she had put in effort to search for the gifs and jokes online. 

Sunmi then explained that she ever since her return to Twitter after her short break, she stops herself from posting jokes.
