First attested in the Hanjungnok (閑中錄 / 한중록), 1805, as Early Modern Korean ᄯᅳ겁다 (Yale: stukep-ta).
From 뜨 (tteu) + 겁 (-geop, intensifying adjective-deriving suffix), the first element being from an analysis of 뜨뜻하다 (tteutteuthada, “to be warm”) as a reduplication of the morpheme 뜨 (tteu). Compare 심심하다 (simsimhada, “to be not salty”) > 싱겁다 (singgeopda, “to be bland, to be insipid (of food)”) via the same process.
Partly displaced 덥다 (deopda, “to be hot”), which is now largely reserved for the weather.
