It means older brother and is a term only used by females. Males use "hyung" rather than "oppa".
"Oppa" or 오빠 is often used by a younger girl talking to an older male friend, and was popularized in Western countries by Psy's 'Gangnam Style'.

"Oppa" is a term in Korean that is used by females to refer to an older male friend or brother. It can also be used by a younger female to address an older male that she is close to in a friendly or affectionate way.
