I think they all need the context to make them clear, but
I'll give it a shot.^^
1) kureso
I guess it might be "그래서(geu-rae-seo)?" meaning "so?" or "so, what?"
2) kureum
It could be "그럼(geu-reom)" meaning "so,..","then,...","well,..."
3) kureuseyo - 그러세요(geu-reo-se-yo)
I think this phrase needs examples.^^
A : Can I comment on your post? - 댓글 달아도 되나요?
B : Sure.(그러세요)
A : Mind if I comment on your post? - 댓글 달아도 되나요?
B : No, I don't mind, go ahead (그러세요)
A : I am the person who commented on your post. 제가 댓글 단 사람입니다.^^
B : Are you?(그러세요?) What a surprise!
4) kuruchi - 그렇지?(geu-reo-chi)
This phrase works like tag question in English.
You're kidding, aren't you? 농담하는 거지, 그렇지?
You did comment on her post, didn't you? 네가 댓글 달았지, 그렇지?
\^o^/

That are telling about 'the terms of "yes" It looks different but the meaning is the same. The difference of them is from a term of respect.
