Also spelled dunjioda
come anytime — an open invitation
-든지 attached to a question word means "whichever, it doesn't matter which," and with 오다 "come" it opens the door with no conditions. Almost every line here is 언제든지 오다 "come whenever you like," said politely to a guest or a viewer: 네, 언제든지 오세요, [welcome] 언제든지 오십시오. One line uses 얼마든지 오세요, "come as much as you want," and one turns it into a promise to show up rather than an invitation: 형이 부르면 언제든지 와야죠. Note the difference from 언제나 오다, which would mean someone always comes; 언제든지 leaves the timing entirely up to the other person.
Register: polite, welcoming
