意思
A request to cease providing more of something.
文化背景
The 'Refusal of Three' (Sam-go-cho-ryeo style): It is common for Koreans to refuse an offer of food or a gift three times before finally accepting. Conversely, if you want to stop, you might have to say '그만 주세요' multiple times because the host thinks you are just being 'polite' by refusing. Food Waste Awareness: In modern Korea, there is a strong movement against food waste ({음식물 쓰레기|飮食物 쓰레기}). Saying '그만 주세요' is now seen as responsible behavior rather than just a refusal of kindness. The Role of 'Service': In Korean restaurants, 'Service' (서비스) refers to free items. While it's a gift, if you are full, you must use '그만 주세요' to prevent the table from becoming cluttered. Hierarchy and Giving: When a superior (boss or elder) gives you something, refusing with '그만 주세요' requires a very soft, apologetic tone to maintain harmony.
Use with '이제'
Adding '이제' (now) before the phrase makes it sound much more natural and less like a sudden command.
Watch your hands
In Korea, physical gestures are part of the language. Use a polite hand wave or cover your plate/glass while saying it.

The 'Full' Excuse
Always follow '그만 주세요' with '배불러요' (I'm full) so the giver knows it's not because you dislike the gift/food.
The Smile
A refusal is a 'negative' social act. Counteract it with a warm smile to show you still value the relationship.
