럴수 럴수 is meaningless interjection transformed from 이럴수 used for comical emphasis
Only 이럴 수가 means "OMG"
이럴 수가 is a short form of "어떻게 이럴 수가 있어!"
How can it be like this!
이럴 수 << 이렇(다) + ㄹ + 수
이렇다 : be like this
ㄹ : modifier suffix for assumption or future tense.
수 : method, way, possiblity
이럴 수가 있다 : it can be like this,
A/V+ㄹ 수(가) 있다 : be able to V, can be A
e.g
먹을 수가 있다.
It is edible

In addition, I think this is some kind of transformed form of "oh my god" such as (just example) "oh my oh my ooh my goooood"
This is just a punning, and im not sure but this was a buzz word
