Contexto cultural
The 'Dang-yeon-haji' game from the TV show 'X-Man' (2003-2007) made this phrase a cultural icon. Players had to say 'Of course!' to increasingly personal or funny attacks. If they couldn't say it, they lost. Using '당연하죠' in a job interview shows 'paegi' (spirit/confidence). It signals that the candidate finds the company's goals or tasks to be naturally aligned with their own. The pun '당근이지' (It's a carrot) is so pervasive that many messaging apps have stickers of carrots to represent 'Of course.' In Neo-Confucian thought, 'Dang-yeon' refers to the 'Principle of What Should Be' (당연지리). It implies that social roles and moral duties are as natural as the seasons changing.
The 'Jyo' Nuance
Using '-죠' instead of '-해요' makes you sound much more like a native speaker. It invites the other person into the agreement.
Avoid with Superiors
If a very high-ranking person asks a serious question, '당연하죠' might sound too casual. Use '당연합니다' or '네, 그렇습니다' instead.

The Carrot Pun
If you want to make your Korean friends laugh, use '당근이지' (Dang-geun-i-ji) in a text message.
Shortening
In very casual texting, you can just write '당연' or 'ㅇㅇ' (for '응응'), but '당연' is more emphatic.
