병 is a frequent offender. We've seen him in counting of bottles (甁) and in recognizing soldiers (兵士). Today we're taking a look at sickness (病) conveniently known as 병 병. He's a friend to the 통 we looked at earlier.

병원 (病院)

월요일병 (月曜日病)
a case of the Mondays. "Monday disease"
심장병 (心臟病)
heart disease
신장병 (腎臟病)

정신병 (精神病)

그렇게 심각한 병은 아니에요.
