🪺 ’비밀 지켜.’…in English?



🍄 Example
Jinny: I’m so happy for you.
Tony: Thank you.
Jinny: Good stuff.
Tony: Mum’s the word.

🪴  Meaning
Jinny: 정말 잘됐다.
Tony: 고마워.
Jinny: 신난다.
Tony: 비밀 지켜.

The useful idiomatic expression ‘mum’s the word’ first came from the word mummer which was an old fashioned type of mime. Mummers acted out a scene without using words and so the term was developed from this.
(‘마임(무언극)‘의 옛날식 표현인 mummer에서 온 단어에요)
