It’s a term which has highlighted an intergenerational culture war between the Millennials and Gen Z in 2021, the latter using it to mock their predecessors. The internet is of course a global village, but cheugy definitely has its roots in the USA.
How did the term first appear? So what kind of things actually are cheugy? What’s trendy is completely subjective, isn’t it?! In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions!
