In MyMemeCards, the meme card game, “Taekwondodo to the attack” is a rare card of the Memes FR pack, number 1734 of the collection, and the 753rd best-known meme of its 3513 cards. Here is what the meme means, where it comes from, and how to get its card.

What does the “Taekwondodo to the attack” meme mean?

The humour comes from pure nonsense: an unlikely portmanteau, a serious battle cry and a reassuring prophecy about the end of the world. People shout it when a situation calls for energy with no good reason, to psych themselves up, or to end a conversation with a sentence that makes no sense. It also mocks doom-laden speeches: if the end of the world will not pass, you might as well charge, with the dodos as backup.

Where does the “Taekwondodo to the attack” meme come from?

The meme rests on two elements. The first is the word “Taekwondodo”, a blend of taekwondo, a martial art of Korean origin, and dodo, the bird from Mauritius that is now extinct. The second is the line that goes with it: “Dodos are never cold. The end of the world will not pass.” The rallying cry therefore mixes a combat sport, a legendary animal and a solemn statement with no logic. It circulates in comments and absurd edits, where the repeated word and the heroic tone are enough to get a laugh, with no context needed.
