Signification
To relax and stop worrying about something.
Contexte culturel
In Korea, expressing relief is often done to reassure others, showing that you are no longer a burden to the group. Similar to Korea, but there is a higher cultural emphasis on 'not causing trouble' (meiwaku), so 'letting one's guard down' is often viewed with more caution. The concept of the 'heart' (Qalb) is central to emotional expression, similar to the Korean '마음'. Relief is often expressed through physical actions like 'taking a deep breath' or 'sighing'.
