Jumo
Jumo(주모)(feminine) is an archaic Korean word refers to the barkeeper of jumak where they provide food, drinks, and accommodations for travelers.
It is depicted commonly in the Korean historical drama as the languorous travelers sitting on the wooden floor of jumak, yelling "jumo! fetch me some makgeolli(Korean rice wine)!"
Nowadays people on the internet call jumo for the situations that inspire their national pride(e.g. when Korean singers/sports figures perform well in the overseas) in a chauvinistic and yet hilarious way.

JUMO
A French borrowing (corrected spelled "jumeaux") used to avoid calling a couple of high-society doofuses "Tweedledee and Tweedledum", which is so long that it would screw up your rhythm, on top of wasting an opportunity to flaunt your French.

The French word "jumeaux" (incorrectly spelled and pronounced "jumos") designates twins.
The characters "Tweedledum and Tweedledee" being mirror images of each other in mentality and demeanour, they have often been characterized as twins in popular culture, and their names have become a derogatory term for such pair.
A couple of vexing simpletons could aptly be called "Tweedledum and Tweedledee", but it's rather long-winded. "Jumeaux" (twins) is so much more expedient. It rolls off the tongue in a long sentence, on top of offering a golden opportunity to flaunt your school French. If you don't want to sound too much like a douchebag, just mistakenly add an "s" and pronounce it "djumoz" instead. Some people will think that you made up a new cool word, and it will boost your street cred.

JUMO
Meme from South Korea. Jumo is an imaginary waitress who serves national pride. It is regarded as not cool to show national pride in Korea. However, when you can not resist the urge, you find Jumo. For example, if Korean sports stars show amazing performance, Jumo has to do a lot of work.
