so, google translate says your rank translates to:

when I remove the part that translates into grasshopper it translates to:

What exactly is the meaning to this? Grasshopper Ranger?

Heh. The first three words do mean grasshopper in Korean - 'mettugi.' The latter two words are in Mandarin Chinese so that's a different language - "youxia", which is not so easy to translate as it belongs to a Chinese literary tradition called "wuxia." I don't really know if there's a great equivalent in the English tradition, though maaaaybe a bit like Arthurian tales or Robin Hood's adventures.
Youxia are romanticised lone heroes who go through the world living up to the various tenets and courtesies of the martial arts world, and often righting wrongs. (I think that's the safest way to put it.) So uh, grasshopper folk-hero? (I left the name for a RP game that was supposed to be wuxia-based on this forum but due to time commitments, the other dude and I never managed to get around to it, and I never changed it...
