On their second day, I took my parents to school for two classes. Gosh, I thought they loved me, but their reaction to my parents was off the charts!!!! I think many Koreans are used to seeing young, white adults, but to see a middle aged foreigner is practically unheard of in my neighborhood. I can't even guess how many "hi's" my parents said, or how many times students compared their height to Dad's.
Here's some pictures of the two classes I taught with my parents assistance:


Here's Mom and some third graders:

And an action shot of me and Hyunhee, my coteacher, at my desk:

I'm pretty positive that this was one of the most memorable experiences of my parents visit!
