The hardest question I was asked was, in Japanese, "why do you like Judo?" It had come up that I practice Judo and they were testing my Japanese. I wasn't really sure how to answer, so I just stood there for a minute and the interviewer then repeated the question in English. It wasn't that I misunderstood the question, I just didn't know how to answer it. Even in English, it's a hard question!
