意思
Requesting an object far from the speaker.
文化背景
When receiving the item you asked for with '저거 주세요', it is polite to use both hands. This shows respect to the giver, regardless of their age. Pointing with one finger is common but can be seen as slightly blunt. Using a flat hand (palm up) to gesture toward the distant object is considered more 'classy' or formal. In restaurants, it is common to call out '사장님' (boss/owner) or '저기요' (excuse me) before saying '저거 주세요' to get attention. The concept of 'Jeong' (social bonding) means that if you are a regular at a shop, saying '저거 주세요' might often result in the owner giving you a little extra for free (service).
The 'Jom' Magic
Always add '좀' (jom) between '저거' and '주세요' to sound 100% more like a native. '저거 좀 주세요' sounds much more natural.
Eye Contact
While pointing, try to make brief eye contact with the person you are asking to ensure they see what you are pointing at.
