意思
Expressing that an action or statement was excessive or inappropriate.
文化背景
The rise of 'Gapjil' awareness has made this phrase a common tool for social justice. It is used to call out power abuse in workplaces and schools. On the internet, '심하다' is often used to police 'Akple' (malicious comments). Netizens will reply to a mean comment with '이건 좀 심한 듯' (This seems a bit too much). Directly saying '너무 심하셨어요' to a superior is still considered a very bold move. Often, employees will use more indirect language unless they are ready to quit or the situation is dire. Parents use this with children to teach them boundaries in play. '장난이 심하면 못써!' (It's no good if your pranks are too extreme!) is a common scolding.
Softening the blow
Add '좀' (a little) before '심했어요' to make the criticism sound slightly less aggressive: '좀 너무 심했어요.'
Watch your tone
If said with a smile, it can be a playful protest. If said with a flat face, it's a serious warning.

Use with '아무리'
Pair it with '아무리 ~아/어도' (No matter how...) to sound more logical: '아무리 배고파도 이건 너무 심했어요.'
The 'Too Much' Slang
Younger Koreans often use the English-derived slang '에바' (from 'Over') instead of '심하다' in very casual settings.
