In this list, チョンガー for sure. I have my doubts about the rest.
The ノッポ one is interesting. "Nopho" would be a very blunt way of
saying "it's high, he's tall," etc., in Korean. Then the question is,
how and why it got to Japan. I wonder if it's in Shogakkan.
I've seen オンドル in dictionaries, and that's obviously from Korean
"ontol" (or "ondol" depending on how you romanize). Were they ever used
in Japanese houses, I wonder.
