About
Am I a Sunrise or Sunset? or the Sunrise or Sunset Question refers to a TikTok trend in which a user films themselves asking their significant other, or another person in general, whether they remind them of a sunrise or a sunset. The trend was popularized in mid-May 2024 and inspired numerous viral results, some in which the significant other gives a joking response and others where they give a genuine, often loving response. The terms "sunrise" and "sunset" are defined loosely in the trend and have no specific meaning, with the meaning coming from how the asked person explains their reasoning.
Origin
It is unclear who started the sunrise or sunset trend. The earliest known viral video in the trend was posted by TikToker[1] @macjelly10 on May 15th, 2024. In the slideshow, the user shows two text messages between herself and her brother. In the first, she asks her brother if she's a sunrise or sunset and he answers, "I think you're a bitch." The video gained over 9.6 million views in two days (shown below).
Spread
The trend spread over the following days, resulting in a variety of responses to the question. On May 15th, 2024, TikToker[2] @deletedddds4 posted a video asking their partner the question, garnering over 105,000 views in two days (shown below, left). On May 16th, TikToker[3] @laura.tschematschar posted a video following the trend that gained over 160,000 views in a day (shown below, right).
