WHO'S CRAZY?!?

If you asked my students to use one word to describe their teacher (me) they will unanimously say "CRAZY".

Often the students will ask me, "Teacher, are you crazy?"

I will almost always respond "Yes ... of course!"

It took me a half year to figure out that the word "Crazy"( a word that has 2 meanings in English 1- mentally ill and 2- very fun) has only one meaning in Korea.... mentally ill.

The Korean translation "Michhin" means "Crazy" and only "Crazy"!

So this begs the question... "Do my students really think I am CRAZY?!?"
