Having a similar appearance.
문화적 배경
Norwegians often use 'se ut som' to avoid being too assertive. Instead of saying 'You are wrong', they might say 'Det ser ut som det er en feil her' (It looks like there is a mistake here). Describing nature as 'looking like' something else is a common poetic device in Scandinavian folklore (e.g., mountains looking like trolls). On Norwegian TikTok/Instagram, 'se ut som' is used in 'get ready with me' videos to describe fashion styles.
