You said..., didn't you?

Ends the line by holding somebody to what they said, usually with a teasing lilt: I heard you two are that close, you said you were all better now, you said everything was fine, you said you weren't scared of ghosts. It is a quotation used as a challenge, so it expects the other person to own up or explain. It sits on descriptions and past forms; ㄴ다며 does the same for present-tense action verbs and 라며 for nouns.
