About BJJ Couple: 2 Cartoons BJJ is an inside joke. It's the initials for the romanization of the Korean word boojukjul, or "inappropriate." Korean letters are written in syllabic blocks, and words are abbreviated by using the first letter of each syllabic block. The series is titled "BJJ Couple" because intercultural love and communication are major themes. BJJ is not a real term, but a creation of the characters using a mix of their native languages - English and Korean.
