意味
Expresses sincere congratulations for an achievement or event.
文化的背景
When congratulating someone, it is common to also offer a meal or a gift. If you say '정말 축하드립니다' to a colleague, they might respond by saying they will buy you lunch to share the joy. In business, sending a 'Congratulatory Wreath' (Chuk-ha Hwan-jo) with the phrase '정말 축하드립니다' written on the ribbon is a standard practice for office openings or promotions. On platforms like KakaoTalk, people use 'emoticon' stickers along with this phrase to soften the formality while still being respectful to elders. Students often pool money to buy a large bouquet and a cake for a professor's achievement, presenting it while saying this phrase in unison.
The Two-Hand Rule
When saying this in person, always bow slightly and, if shaking hands, use both hands to show maximum respect.
Don't forget the title
In Korea, it's better to say '[Title], 정말 축하드립니다' rather than just the phrase. It makes it much more personal and respectful.
