'Pelican Thinking' is an internet meme inspired by the behavior of pelicans attempting to eat animals or objects much larger than their mouths. This meme symbolizes a positive mindset of "just trying it," particularly embodying the attitude of attempting challenging tasks without being constrained by the odds of success.
'Pelican Thinking' emerged in mid-2024, derived from Jang Wonyoung's "Wonyoung Thinking," which emphasizes a positive outlook. As "Wonyoung Thinking" gained popularity, it was adapted into this meme by combining it with the image of a pelican attempting to swallow oversized prey, highlighting the spirit of tackling seemingly impossible challenges with determination.
This meme is mainly associated with taking bold actions in difficult situations, often celebrated among Gen Z as a humorous expression of "just giving it a go." Its connection to the pelican's behavior, even in the face of high failure probabilities, has made it particularly popular on social media platforms.
