Thomas TS #13

I met with Father John for the first time in a week. He had been in Orlando for a conference with other Korean priests from other parts of Florida such as Jacksonville and Orlando. He also suffered from a knee problem and had to make visits to the hospital to get it treated so we had to cancel our session on Friday and he missed our Monday session. We had a nice talk about a variety of topics. Apparently he didn’t know about the Korean market and Lynn’s Asian market so I showed him where they were on his map of Tallahassee. He also told me about the Yangju highway incident, which was covered in class later that day. He also told me that he was staying for 2 and a half years before moving back to Korea (I had to teach him to say 2 and a half years rather than 2 year 6 months). He also told me about how he, aside from Korean and English, knows German, Greek, and Latin, which amazed me that he knew that many languages and he sheepishly told me that his English is the worst. At the end of the session he invited me for dinner at Ming Tree which I happily accepted since I enjoyed the last time I ate there.
