I thought you meant 'sa up' is wrong because 'sa up' means like 'business'. Forgot it was short form for '사정거리 업' =.="

I was about to suggest "ne" but I saw the "SC related only", does it hurt to add that because sometimes there are people who ask what ne means because they hear the commentators say it over and over again....


Yup I guess so if what I am thinking is what you are thinking...

'ne' as in 'yes'?

전진 - jun jin proxy

kro-sho is probably 그렇죠 - thats right/i agree

상대방 - sang dae bang is opponent

i guess you can add that 정ㅋ벅ㅋ stands for conquer and forgg is called that because he conqured arena msl 3-0.

my mouse was hovering around the post button -_-
i give up ㅈㅈㅇ10k


I figured out that kro-sho (to me sounds like kru-cho) must mean sg like certanly/i agree/you're right, because the commentators were using it when one of them said a long sentence and the other one just said this word. I'm glad my logic was good

If used in a question form, the meaning changes to "Isn't that right?"

Yeah~

AFAIK:
승 = win from 승리하다
패 = loss from 실패하다


To break it down,
승리 = Victory/win
패배 = Defeat/loss
하다 = To (do)

So 승리하다 becomes 'to win' while 패배하다 becomes 'to lose'.

Edit: Can somebody please sticky this?? I want this thread to be quickly available for everyone instead of people re-linking to this thread or having to do a search after being buried.

What is that "ahh-see-mee-dah" that they say all the time? It's like at the end of every other sentence.

있습니다 - 'Ees-Seum-Nee-Da' means 'it exists' in a polite way of saying things. It's attached at the end of a sentence. The informal way of saying it would be 있다 - 'Eet-Da'.

Yes, learning through watching VODs. I think it‘s effective
Some other words(maybe wrong) that come to my mind:
Uu-Seung(优胜/優勝): Win a gold in a tournament
Jun-Uu-Seung: Win a silver in a tournament

진짜 감사합니다! 지금 나는 한국말도 공부할 수 있습니다. I'm just an English teacher here in Korea for about the past year but I've watched VODs for like 3 years. This is super helpful and I think it would be great if you could add more VOD clips of some of the more difficult terminology so as to hear them in context like you did for 이한방. Yes, this is a MUST for sticky.
