What 쟝 means
It writes a syllable, not a word. 쟝 is one Korean sound-block used inside words, not a pictograph with its own mood.
A 1617 text already shows the old spelling 쟝 for 醬, “sauce,” before later spelling settled as 장. So read it as history, not as slang.

To match a foreign sound such as Jean or jiang. Practice varies, so copy the person's own spelling.
