What Koreans really mean
존잘 (jonjal) is slang meaning extremely handsome or super good-looking, used almost exclusively to describe men. It originated by combining an intensifier with 잘생기다 (to be handsome). While its roots are somewhat vulgar, widespread casual use — especially in K-pop and K-drama fan communities — has softened its edge into a common way to express strong appreciation for good looks.
