no idea about the first one, but the second one is 그렇죠 and it basically means what you said. it's like saying "that's right".

Sangdaebangee means "the opposing player is" in the context of the korean sc streams

you're pretty much right about what would probably be romanized as "geureocho"

Oh man that's the first thing that popped into my mind when I read that.

Hilarious all the same.

Hes going to be pronouncing it wrong if he spelled it wrong. Actually now that I think of it since its an intro class he probably won't get points for saying it that way but its a good habit to know the correct spelling anyways.

Not to be picky but you rarely say 어떻게 칠줄 몰라요 or 칠수없어요
잘 못쳐요 would do just fine

I don't mean to be a topic thief but to all you translators...

I would really like to learn Korean and I was wondering what y'all think is the best way to go about it. My University does not offer a course nor do we have an study abroad program in S. Korea. But ya, answers duly appreciated.
