A state of being fully tuned into your emotional inner world — heightened sensitivity, empathy, and depth of feeling. When someone is in maum mode they are processing feelings rather than suppressing them, often triggered by a powerful piece of media, a heartfelt conversation, or a period of personal reflection. Frequently invoked approvingly in K-culture fan communities.
