The first episode of "Joanie Loves Chachi" was the highest rated American program in the history of Korean television, a country where "Chachi" translates to "penis".

Well....

In Hangul, eumgyeong means penis. 음경

There is a slang word 자지 which means cock/dick but it is used not in a sexual way but more like how we use "dick" as an insult "what a dick". Transliterated in to English it can be pronounced Jaji (Ja Jee), which I guess might sound like Chachi.

As for it being the highest rated American program in Korea, it was never shown on Korean TV. It was broad cast on AFKN which is a US military channel. Most Koreans would not have had access to that channel.

During the filming of the movie Borat (2006), the police were called by concerned citizens 92 times, and a team from the FBI was sent out to the actor Sascha Baron Cohen, who had the main role as Borat, after reports that a man of Middle Eastern appearance was moving through the Midwest of the United States in an ice car.
