Description
그러니까: Literally, it means Because of that.../That's why.../For that reason..., and it is used to begin a new sentence expressing something that happened as a result of the actions stated in the previous sentence.
This is used synonymously with 그래서, the only difference being that 그러니까 is more colloquial than the latter.
