Emne: Gyokushō

The white King (Osho) is the one with the extra dash.

source: http://shawnbrown.com/basement/shogi/shogi_rules_1.html

Conclusion:

The white king with the extra dash, denoting wealth, is the reigning king.

The black king is the challenging king, and thus has the first move, attacking the reigning king's kingdom, because he needs the money. ;)
