That's Not It

Why Koreans care

가위바위보 (gawibawibo, rock-paper-scissors) is how Koreans casually settle almost any small decision, from who goes first to who runs an errand, so it surfaces instinctively even inside a guessing game. One commenter singled out member Minju for calling it out "so cutely," reacting less to a scripted joke than to an idol doing the same everyday childhood reflex Korean viewers grew up with.

In the Korean comments

Several commenters zeroed in on member Roha's reactions during the game, finding her decisiveness endearing: "Roha is so firm about it... lol, I'm in tears." (majority) A smaller group focused on one specific line, praising member Minju for casually saying 가위바위보 (gawibawibo, rock-paper-scissors): "The way Minju says 'rock-paper-scissors' is so cute." (minority) Other commenters used the clip as a launchpad for general declarations of support: "I'm so overwhelmed by how cute this is! I'm a huge, devoted fan and ILLIT is my favorite group!"

What the words mean

그거 아니야 (geugeo aniya, "that's not it") reads to English speakers like the start of a serious correction or debunking video. In context it's just the phrase Koreans blurt out when someone guesses wrong in a game, matching the clip's laughing, trial-and-error tone.
