He is Hero

I was just discussing how South Koreans obtained their independence with my student, Jeong U Cheol. When we were talking about the Korean War, I told him that my Grampy fought for his freedom with the Navy. U Cheol then thanked me for sending him to help. My response was, "You're welcome. He was a very good man."

His response made me cry: "Good man is not enough. He is hero."

I couldn't agree more, Jeong U Cheol. (And no, I did not correct his grammar on that sentence.)
