Question

Answer

Refer to http://www.italki.com/question/280050

Answer

지금 means now as in a specific point in time
Eg: 지금 2시이예요.

이제 means now in a slightly more general sense
Eg: 이제 밥 먹고 있어요.

But as far as I understand they are interchangable in many cases

This is different from 요즘 which means now-a-days
Eg: 요즘 서울에 살고 있어요.
