意思
A polite way to ask for passage in a crowded place.
文化背景
In Seoul, physical contact is generally avoided. This phrase acts as a 'verbal shield' to prevent accidental touching from being perceived as rude. Restaurant culture involves servers moving quickly with hot dishes. They use this phrase loudly to ensure customers don't make sudden movements. Older generations might use a shorter, more direct '지나갈게요,' while younger people are often taught to be extra formal with '-겠습니다' to avoid conflict. In narrow office cubicle rows, this phrase is used to maintain professional boundaries while moving.
The Shoulder Tilt
When saying this, slightly tilt your head or shoulder in the direction you want to go. It's a non-verbal cue that reinforces your politeness.
Don't Shout
You need to be heard, but shouting can sound angry. Use a firm, clear, but calm 'announcement' tone.

The Hand Gesture
Sometimes people put one hand up vertically (like a 'knife hand' but relaxed) to 'cut' through the air as they pass. This is very common and polite.

If the crowd is extremely tight, always start with '죄송합니다' (I'm sorry) before the phrase.
