Braden TS #7

 With the Olympics coming up, Dojun and I talked about what sports we were interested in watching. For me, I do a lot of rock climbing, so I'm excited to watch that when it comes this year. Dojun is most excited about Baseball, which Korea is apparently pretty good at. We got to talking about other sports afterwards, and I taught Dojun about how American Football worked, and the culture behind watching it for a lot of the fans here. He told me that a few of his coworkers who spent time in America always bug him to watch football with them, but he could never understand what was going on. I taught him vocabulary like end zone, touchdown, extra point, and punt. We also cleared up a few korean sports terms that sound like English, but really aren't. An example of this was the "handphone" we talked about in class.
