It means ‘우리’, encompassing the speaker and listener, or the speaker and people close to them.
A very common expression in conversation. Even when referring to just one person, people may say ‘우리’ (our) when addressing someone affectionately. In formal settings, however, a more neutral expression may be used depending on the situation. It combines naturally with particles and can also be used on its own.
