EN: intense crying; ugly crying
That specific type of crying you do after a major breakup, a K-drama finale, or when you realize it's petsa de peligro and your sahod is still a week away. This isn't the cute, single-tear cry. This is the full-on, sipon-and-luha-combo, 'hindi-na-ako-makahinga' kind of cry. The 'I need a friend and a tub of ice cream, stat!' cry.
From 'iyak' (cry) and 'malala' (severe, serious).
A modern, slang phrase.
