Cho Knows was the name of a student video shown in Mr. Kelly's Freshmen English class. A hogde-podge of various skits and camerawork, the movie (made by an old student of the sagely teacher) was vaguely about growing up as a Korean student, and what it means to be American. The video was shown as a prompt for a unit about "America" and identity, although perhaps its more lasting legacy was as an initial inspiration (in its comedic style) for License to Kill a Mockingbird, made by Brett, Lukas and Stuart later that year.
Mr. Kelly claimed the video was shown to the Korean ambassador, a statement which was met with extreme skepticism.
Stuart enjoyed the video so much that "Cho Knows" was subsequently picked up as a Stuart buzzword, later to be used liberally around Jeremy. This reference eventually fell into obscurity after the class ended. It did however, make one final brief appearance in the 2003 Imprints as the title of a Stuart submitted photograph. The meme would perhaps not have been remembered at all were it not for the "Cho Knows" Gate scandal a year later.
