D.Va, real name Hana Song, is the South Korean professional gamer turned mech pilot in Blizzard's team shooter Overwatch, released in 2016. Her bubbly, streamer-like personality made her voice lines popular clips outside the game. The hue hue laugh borrows from Brazilian online slang, where repeated hue sounds signal mischievous, trollish laughter rather than genuine amusement. Fans cut this short giggle from her lines and shared it on soundboards, where the hu3 hu3 spelling helped it spread as a compact taunt for gaming videos, chats and reaction edits.
