(ex) 양방 = both of the two (persons) 쌍방의 합의 하에 = under the agreement of the both of the two people involved So 상대방 is used in various context wherever it can mean 'the opponent', 'the other person', or 'the counterpart' :-) But you never call someone '상대방' directly because it's only used as a third person noun. :-) I hope this helps! 도움이 되었으면 좋겠어요!

So 상대방 is used in various context wherever it can mean ‘the opponent’, ‘the other person’, or ‘the counterpart’ :-)

But you never call someone ‘상대방’ directly because it’s only used as a third person noun.

I've never heard the "저는 (name)라고 하다" introduction structure before. In English, I think only cartoon supervillains use the "I am called Dark Culex" introduction sentence pattern. One question: I heard 현우 say at some point the word 상대방. I think it's one of those words that has multiple meanings depending on the situation, and the Naver dictionary hasn't been of much help. What does this word mean? Interesting. I’ve never heard the “저는 (name)라고 하다” introduction structure before.
