What's the origin of the phrase 'Bucket list'?

For some time 어느정도의 시간동안 after it was first coined, only people who feared thier imminent death compiled a bucket list.죽음을 앞둔 사람만 작성했다 More recently,더 최근에는 since the expression has become more widely used,더 널리 사용되면서 it just means 'a list of things that I would like to do someday'. Such a list typically includes:보통 포함한다.

  • See the Northern/Southern Lights.
  • Visit, The Grand Canyon, The Taj Mahal, The Great Wall of China…
  • Swim with dolphins.

The expression/ came into wide use / in the language / following the release of the film Bucket List, in December 2007.
이 표현은 2007년 12월에 개봉한 영화 '버킷리스트' 이후 널리 사용되기 시작했습니다.

The first authenticated use of the phrase is found in a UPI Newswire post on 29th June, 2006, which announced the film and, usefully for us, defined the meaning and origin of the expression:

이 표현의 첫 번째 공식 사용례는 2006년 6월 29일 UPI 뉴슬와이어 게시물에서 발견되었고, 이는 영화 발표와 함께 표현의 의미와 기원을 잘 설명해주었습니다.

Jack Nicholson and Morgan Freeman are set to star in 'The Bucket List', about two cancer patients... The two terminally ill men make a wish list of things they want to do before they kick the bucket - called the bucket list - then take a road trip.

set to star in~ ~에 주연을 맡았다.(이미 계획된 상태)
The two terminally ill men (그 두명의 말기환자)
kick the bucket 죽기전에 (slang 죽다)

It is quite possible that the expression existed as slang before the film’s screenplay was written.

영화가 쓰여지기전에 슬랭으로서 이 표현은 존재했을수 가능성이 있따.

If it did, it can’t have been coined long before 2006 as we were then in the Google era and any use of it online would now be easy to find, and there aren’t any search results that point to unambiguous uses of the expression before that date.
