뜻
To indicate the direction of 'right'.
문화적 배경
Pointing with an open hand is considered polite. Never point with a single finger. Pointing with one finger is common and generally not considered rude, unlike in Japan. The right hand is considered 'clean' and is used for eating and greeting, while the left is often reserved for hygiene. Similar to Japan, pointing with a finger can be seen as aggressive. Using the thumb or an open hand is preferred.
Use your hand
Always gesture with an open hand when saying '{右|みぎ}です'.
Don't guess
If you aren't sure, say '{右|みぎ}だと思います' instead of just '{右|みぎ}です'.

Politeness
Adding 'の方' (no hou) makes you sound much more like a native speaker.
