Long Explanation
'~잖다 [janda]' is a sentence-ending phrase used to indicate the speaker's assumption that the listener is already aware of the information being shared. It's akin to saying 'you know' or 'isn’t it' in English. This grammar point can be used to confirm facts or imply shared knowledge.
