意味
Requesting further clarification or detail about something.
文化的背景
Using '좀' is a sign of 'Gyeom-yang' (humility). It suggests that the speaker's need for explanation is due to their own lack of understanding, rather than the other person's lack of clarity. Subordinates often use '부탁드립니다' (I request) instead of '주세요' to show extra respect to superiors. Students are often encouraged to ask for explanations using this phrase to show they are paying attention, as silence can sometimes be mistaken for boredom. In texting (KakaoTalk), this is often shortened to '설명 좀요' or '설명 부탁' among acquaintances.
The Power of '좀'
Always include '좀'. Without it, '더 설명해 주세요' sounds like you are demanding more work from the speaker.
Don't over-honorific
With friends, '설명해 주시옵소서' (archaic/king style) is a joke, but in real life, stick to '설명해 줘'.
