सांस्कृतिक पृष्ठभूमि
Smiling is a core component of 'Goshadeh-ruyi' (having an open face). It is considered a virtue to greet even strangers with a mild smile to show you are a person of good nature. Classical poets often compare a smile to a 'ghoncheh' (flower bud) opening. A smile is seen as the blossoming of the soul. While 'cheese' is used, Iranians also say 'Seeb' (Apple) to get people to smile for photos because the 'ee' sound mimics a smile.
