뜻
To be unfaithful in a relationship.
문화적 배경
In Poland, the phrase is often used in 'lifestyle' journalism and TV talk shows to discuss the psychology of relationships without sounding too judgmental. Tabloid websites like Pudelek.pl frequently use this phrase to report on celebrity scandals, often with a hint of irony. Many Polish comedies from the 90s and 2000s (e.g., 'Kiler', 'Testosteron') use this idiom to drive the plot through misunderstandings and secrets. On Polish dating apps (Tinder, Bumble), some users might explicitly state they are 'not looking for a skok w bok', meaning they want a serious relationship.
