뜻
To show dissatisfaction through facial expressions.
문화적 배경
In Nepali households, children are often told 'मुख नबिगार' (Don't pull a face) as a lesson in gratitude and politeness, especially during meals. Non-verbal dissent is a common way to show disagreement without being overtly confrontational, which is often avoided in hierarchical societies. In Newari culture, facial expressions during traditional feasts (Bhoj) are closely watched; 'Mukha Bigārnu' could be seen as an insult to the host. Younger generations use 'Mukha Bigārnu' ironically or in memes to describe 'first world problems' or relatable annoyances.
Watch the Context

Don't be Literal
Remember, if you say someone's mouth is 'bigrieko' (spoiled/broken), people might think they need a doctor!
