You may know 빵 which means 'bread', but
the homophone 빵 is 'a word imitating the sound made when something like a balloon or a bomb explodes suddenly'.
터지다 basically means that 'something that is surrounded and blocked by something else is broken down or pierced'.
It can also mean 'something like applause, laughter, a cry or a noise suddenly comes out at once'.
So 터지다 can be used for laughter(웃음), a cry(울음) and applause(박수).
웃음이 터지다.
울음이 터지다.
박수가 터지다.
'빵 터지다' only means 'burst out laughing'.
For example,
"어제 이거 때문에 빵 터졌어.(I burst out laughing because of this yesterday.)"
