सांस्कृतिक पृष्ठभूमि
The concept of 'Service' (서비스) is huge. If you are a regular and say '많이 주세요' politely, you might get a free drink or an extra dish. In markets, '많이 주세요' is part of the 'Heung-jeong' (haggling) culture. It's less about the price and more about the quantity. Students often use 'Aegyo' (cute behavior) with '많이 주세요' to get more food from cafeteria workers, whom they call 'Imo-nim' (Auntie). On YouTube and Instagram, creators ask for '관심' (interest) and '사랑' (love) using this phrase to boost engagement.

Don't be greedy
