Korean term or phrase: 선암시 대사
I have an xslx file with a game content.
I can not play due to 등록번호 situation. So I'm sorry, but this is the only context I have.

These are mobs hints.
There is a name of a hit,
and then:
the name+선암시 대사

ex.:
훈련병의 분노
훈련병의 분노 선암시 대사

English translation:Pre-suggestive dialogue
Explanation:
선 means "before" or "prior"

암시 is a "suggestion" or a "hint"

선암시 can loosely be understood as a "pre-suggestion" and is a term that is most often used in a hypnosis context, whereby the subject is given some warning or "suggestion" as to what will soon take place ("You will begin to feel sleepy...").

대사, of course, it a line of dialogue. With that in mind, 선암시 대사 can either be understood as a dialogue option that has been "pre-suggested" or recommended by the game, or is the option for the character to attempt to input some sort of "pre-suggestion" into the target, such as a Jedi might attempt (if you're familiar with Star Wars).

Further context would help clarify the exact meaning it was used in this case.

a typo?


Explanation:
hello,
Seems to me that the word is a typo and I can't even guess what it was supposed to be in the context. Only what I can see is that it is a military-related word.

You'd better double check with your client.
