Noun [Korean]

IPA: [sʰa̠k͈uɾa̠] [SK-Standard, Seoul] Forms: sakkura [romanization]
Etymology: From Japanese 桜 (sakura, “cherry blossom”), presumably borrowed under colonial rule (1910–1945). Numerous etymologies have been proposed. One is that it is a clipping of Japanese 桜肉 (sakura niku, “horsemeat”), referring to a fraud where horsemeat was falsely packaged as beef. Another is that it is from the Japanese slang use of 桜 as "shill" or "swindle".
