WHEN I WAS YOUNG.

It is used when referring to childhood or the past. In Korea, mostly older people say this.

That’s why in Korea, people who say that are called ‘GGON-DAE’.

Maybe there is a similar meaning in foreign countries? I am not sure.

This sentence is used mainly when older people talk to young people while talking about the past.

LATTE IS HORSE? TMI!

I’ll explain in more detail. If you read that sentence aloud, it looks like this:

na-ttae-neun-mal-i-ya

The ‘na-ttae’ part is similar to the LATTE pronunciation. And this part of ‘neun’ is the same as ‘IS’ in English.

Finally, ‘mal-i-ya’ means HORES. ‘MAL’ in Korean is HORES in English.

Because of this meaning, the sentence was born as a play of language.

I think it is a combination of Korean and English.
