Hi Jun Dong

From the posts I've seen recently in the Community (and with some self checks), there seems to be some technical issues with the Java challenges. I'm sure the Support Team is on top of this. For now, You can always continue with the course and come back to the Challenges later on, once the problem has been correct with the Code Checkers. This can be done by manually navigating your progress using the nav links above the video window.

Hope this gets fixed up soon. :) :dizzy:
