What does “노잼” mean?

boring, no fun

“그 영화 완전 노잼이야, 보지 마.”

That movie is so boring, don't watch it.

The textbook way to say it: 재미없다

The morning after the blind date

Hana 오 근데 너 금사빠잖아. 지난주엔 카페 알바생한테 반했잖아.

Oh, but you fall in love way too fast. Last week you fell for the café part-timer.

Jiwoo 아 그건 노잼이었고! 이번엔 찐이야. 같이 떡볶이도 먹었어.

Ah, that one was boring! This time it's the real deal. We even had tteokbokki together.

Hana 그래서 썸 타는 거야? 연락은 왔어?

So you two have a “something” going? Did he text?
