What does '잘자 아가' mean?
I know jalja means good night, but what about 아가? My friend said it means baby/sweet heart/honey and another said it means baby , does it mean baby the nickname? Or an actualy infant? And is it used between lovers or friends? Please explain, thanks!:)

As mentioned, you use 아가 to call a baby ("아가야...").
Sometimes older people call their daughter in law (their son's wife) 아가 for endearment.
AFAIK between lovers or friends, they don't use it like "baby" in English.
People use 아가씨 for young women they are not familiar with like "miss" in English.
This is usually for addressing a stranger or an in-law (brother's wife), never between lovers.
The casual endearing term between lovers is usually 자기 ("oneself", "yourself").
