Expression: "Service."
Meaning: This idiom is from South Korea (대한민국) and is used when something is being given to an English-speaking foreigner at no cost. We are unsure of its origin since more common expressions in America include "no charge" and "on the house," nor have we heard this phrase when receiving anything from anyone from other English-speaking countries.
Example: You are dining at a Korean restaurant and someone who works there delivers another dish of something and says "service."
