뜻
To move on from a past situation.
문화적 배경
In Italy, 'voltare pagina' is often associated with the post-WWII era and the 'Economic Miracle,' where the country had to reinvent itself completely. The equivalent 'turning over a new leaf' has a more moralistic tone of self-improvement, whereas 'voltare pagina' is more about situational change. The concept of 'shinki itten' emphasizes the 'refreshing' of the heart, which aligns with the Italian emotional use of 'voltare pagina'. In Brazilian Portuguese, 'virar a página' is used extensively in 'Samba' lyrics to describe moving on from a lost love.
