its korean for penis - and for that reason it had the HIGHEST ratings for a single episode of any show in that country - EVER

I think the writers new what they we're doing! I mean come on - where did they come up with the name Chachi anyway!?

Probably another creation of Garry Marshall, the creator of "Happy Days", "Mork & Mindy", "Joanie Loves Chachi" & "Laverne & Shirley".

I just saw a page on snopes.com regarding the Joanie Loves Chachi "penis" myth. It turns out that no actual data has ever been cited to support such a claim, and the notion that it is true falls flat for a few reasons listed on that page. One of them being that, The only airings within Korea were on the armed Forces Network, and JLC was not aired as programming available to ordinary Korean households.

I've heard that Garry Marshall said that in an interview just to be funny or something. But it's definitely not true.
