Polite 'I'm telling you'

Says something again, politely but with visible impatience at not being believed: I'm telling you they got right under here, you can't explain cuteness, I'm telling you I am lying right now, I even brought my passport. The politeness of the 요 does not soften the insistence — it is the sound of someone repeating themselves. Drop the 요 for the plain 다니까.

Register: polite but insistent
