Korean comedian Lee Su-ji has gained massive popularity with her parody videos that critically portray 'Gangnam Moms', mothers in the affluent area of Gangnam, Seoul, known for their competitive parenting practices. Her video 'In the Name of a Mother', depicting a 'Daechi Mom' (a term for overprotective mothers in the Daechi-dong area), received over 6 million views. These skits showcase her keen observation and remarkable mimicry skills, which entertain while subtly criticizing social issues. The parodies have led to a decline in sales of luxury items like Moncler jackets, often associated with Gangnam parents, illustrating the impact of her satire.
