No, "koro" in Maori actually means "old man" or "elderly man." The term for "grandad" in Maori is actually "koroua."

Who is koro in the whale rider?

Koro is the chief of the Maori Tribe. He is Paikea's Grandfather. Paikea was born with her twin brother, who was in line for chief, but he died at birth and she didn't. Koro blamed Paikea for the death of the leader. The chain of the first born males being chief was broken. Koro is very dis-approving of Pai and is aggresive towards her through her life. Pai ends up having all the skills and talents of a chief and she is the true air to the position but Koro is too sacred to let her be the leader. He is very traditional and does not want to brake the line of his ancestors. I'm not going to spoil the rest of the story though!
