Uu-seung - 우승
Victory

asking for an english lesson, does it equal to championship ?
우승 is not just any win (승리) but winning in the final.

//
i suggest adding related entries
준우승(~하다), 이기다(승리~하다), 지다(패배~하다), 비기다(무승부), 진출(~하다)**, 탈락(~하다)
PS. ** has 2 meanings. 1. advances in a tourney 2. move out (for an attack)


I think I should change this to 'to win'?

Unbelievable thread, very very useful.
I know two words: "Jin-Chul"(or something like this) means "to qualify", and "Kyul-Seung" means "the finals(of a tournament)"

BTW, I'm very interested in the han-ja counterpart of these terms. I know that many of the terms originate from English, but I believe there are some that come from Chinese

Jin-chul should be 进出 I think, as for Gyul-seung, it should be '决胜'

In my mind Jin-chul is "晋级"
Well, don't know much about Korean. I can only read the players' names in Korean

Uhm, just a confirmation, the counting numbers used for upgrades are Sino-Korean right? And the ones for the position are the Korean numbers..did I get it right?

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....

I think Konadora really meant Sang-up because he added the placeholder (the o character). I don't know if that word exists but as far as reading Korean characters tell me, that is right..

He fixed it here..

Sang-up - 상업


Wait, sang-up is still wrong?
