Hannam is abbreviation of Korean(Han-) man(nam). It is similar to Hannyu, meaning Korean woman. But as you can see in the writing above, Only Korean men are very sensitive and angry to this word, because unfortunately high proportion of Korean men are ‘Hannam’.

This word usually refer to Korean men who are misogygist/sexist/a patriarchal thinker. When a Korean man commited a sexual crime, it called 한남짓(Hannam-git, Korean men doing).
Hannams have always made and used degrading words against women like 김치녀(kimchi-women), 피싸개(blood pee-er), 보징어(cunt smell like squids)… And they say  보이루(hello cunt).
So if you want to understand this word properly, knowing about misogyny in Korea will he helpful.
