#1 TOP DEFINITION

찐 — real, genuine, authentic. Used to emphasize that something is the true version of itself, not fake or exaggerated. In K-pop fan culture, 찐 is applied to idols who seem genuinely themselves rather than performing a persona — 찐텐션 (jjin tension) means authentic excitement as opposed to forced energy.

Example
Fans praised Jennie's Cannes interview as total 찐 — she was relaxed, funny, and completely herself rather than in idol mode.
