#1 TOP DEFINITION
์ โ deep emotional attachment and affection that develops naturally over time. A uniquely Korean concept without a direct English equivalent. Jeong is the bond that forms between fans and idols after years of following someone through all their eras, struggles, and growth. It's also the deep loyalty between group members. You can even develop jeong for a song or a place.
Example
โAfter ten years of following BTS, I realized what I feel isn't just fandom โ it's ์ . Their music is woven into every major moment of my life.โ
