Definition
民心 refers to the collective feelings, will, and support of the people — often used in political or social contexts to talk about public sentiment toward a government, policy, or leader. It is similar to 民意 (public opinion) but carries a stronger emotional and moral weight, implying the 'hearts' of the people rather than just their stated opinions.
