Somtang appears on soundboard listings as a TikTok trend audio, but its exact original source is not clearly documented in the available details. That ambiguity has not stopped short-form creators from picking it up, since trend sounds often spread through reuse, remixes and edits rather than through a single well-known clip. Its longer length also sets it apart from many quick meme hits, making it more useful for a full scene than for a split-second punchline. It remains a niche, curiosity-driven choice for editors looking for something less familiar than the biggest viral sounds.
