In korean, there are lots of different conjugations which still have the same meaning;
For example,
-이건 뭐지?
-이건 뭐야?
-이건 뭐냐?
-이건 뭐?
-이건 뭐에요?
-이건 뭡니까?
-이건 무엇입니까?
-blah blah blah… We still have more to come...(duh??!!!)
The above are all the same meaning sentences.
I’d rather explain by making examples in English.
1. 이건 뭐지?
- What the heck is this?
1. 지 - the heck
2. 이거 해야지!
- (I’ve) Gotta do this!
2. 지 - (have) got to
