The term, “gosu” has come to mean pro in the real-time-strategy community. Gosu, as I understand, roughly translates to “pro” in korean.

What I've always found odd, is that many of the professional korean sc players leave the sport to serve their mandatory military service. They never return to the arena after they complete their service.
