#1 TOP DEFINITION

츀데레 β€” cold on the outside, warm on the inside. From Japanese 'tsundere' (ツンデレ), borrowed widely into Korean youth culture. Describes someone who initially acts aloof, dismissive, or even rude but reveals genuine warmth and care over time. Many K-pop idols are fan-labeled tsundere β€” idols who pretend not to care but are obviously devoted to their members or fans.

Example
β€œYoongi acts 츀데레 in every interview β€” 'I don't care about award shows' β€” and then cries every single time BTS wins one.”
