My sixth-grade student Seoeun raised her hand, yesterday, as if she had an urgent announcement.
"Yes?" I prompted.
"Today is today," she said gravely, and without hesitation. It was clearly something she'd planned out in her head, as one does when working in a foreign language.
"Um, yes," I agreed. "Why are you telling me?"
"그냥" [geunyang = just because], she offered, shrugging.
"OK, good to know," I said. And we moved on.
