To identify the exact problem.
문화적 배경
In Romanian media, this phrase is a staple of 'talk-show' culture. It signifies a moment of 'breaking the silence' about corruption or social decay. The phrase is equally common in the Republic of Moldova, often used in the context of geopolitical discussions and identity issues. Modern Romanian startups use this phrase during 'retrospectives' to encourage radical candor among team members. Classic 19th-century authors used this phrase to describe the 'social wounds' of the peasantry and the lack of reform.
