意味

To win someone over to one's side; to co-opt or recruit; to bring into one's inner circle, often through persuasion or inducement.

A Group 1 (godan) compound verb combining 抱く (to embrace) and 込む (to go into thoroughly). Carries a nuance of calculated persuasion or even manipulation — the person being 'embraced' is often being drawn in for one's own purposes rather than out of genuine goodwill.
