意味

Get Ready With Me; a video format showing someone's morning beauty and outfit preparation routine.

GRWM (Get Ready With Me) is an English-origin video format that has been enthusiastically adopted in Japanese social media. These videos show the creator getting ready — doing their skincare, makeup, hair, and choosing their outfit — often with relaxed narration or background music. The format is popular because it feels intimate and relatable. In Japan, it is written as GRWM (in English letters) and pronounced as the individual letters.
