what do certain phrases like sugo mean, i always thought it meant gosu like after you lose you say sugo to complement the winner. however sometimes the winner says it too so im confused. If you can think of other popular korean phrases please post, and with hangul spelling too if possible

su go 수고

means 'it was a good time' or 'gg'

su go is something u would say in certain situations irl too in korean, like if u worked together with people to accomplish a goal, after u'd say sugo blahblah

not a compliment, just a respectful saying
why so 진지해?

That's son of a bitch in korean.

There are a lot of insults in korean, but I rather not mention them.

Someone long time ago, made a thread and posted like a shitloads of korean phrases also, he posted a lot of whore-used starcraft words in korean. But I've tried to find it and with the worsts results ever.

----------------------------------------------------

Some koreans also use the ㅈㅈ as gg and stuff.

babo = 바보 = stupid
Ddorang = Gay = 또랑


fixed: thx rek.

헉 - gjr - huk = "oh shit" not in bad cotent/word, but just means you are surprised like OH SHIT

수고 (ㅅㄱ) - tnrh - sugo = good work/well done

죄송 (ㅈㅅ) - whlthd = sorry

초보 - chqh - chobo = newb

고수 - rhtn - gosu = good player

겜? - rpa? = game?


btw those random letters are the letters you would type to get the korean word. anything else?

hul = 헐 means like omg or i cant believe you said that
baka = 빠까 whatever the spelling means like that someone/something is driving you crazy
즐 = Kin means to like fuck off
샹 = means like damn,shit
huk = 헉 is more like a sound effect if someone gets hurt or something
꺼져 = also means fuck off, go away
좇나,졸라 = zolla means like fucking
mostly what teenagers use

thats what i think
And buy those stickers where you can put them over the english keyboard so you can know where the korean letters are. For more terms 1tym made a post about it
oh yeah more
ㅎㅇ / 하이 hi
ㅈㅈ at start means do well/go good
지랄 means making a fuss,hysterical, overboard
디져 or something means to die
처먹어 means to stuff your face with something
퍽유= fuck you (korean pronounciation)
