Amor Fati comes from South Korean trot singer Kim Yon Ja, known for her powerful, theatrical vocal style and long career in Korean popular music. The song's dramatic chorus and its title, borrowed from the Latin phrase meaning love of fate, give it an instantly recognisable emotional pull. As short clips spread through social video and soundboards, creators began using the chorus as shorthand for destiny, comeback and bittersweet triumph, keeping it in circulation long after its original release.
