What is the name of the game that all the Korean girls play? It's kind of like jacks, where you drop the little plastic cube-like things on the ground then try to pick them up-1 then 2 the 3 etc.-at a time without touching the remaining ones?

Yeah, it's odd because gon-gi (air) was popular pre- 2000 then was played maybe only rarely for years, then re-emerged recently, at least in my experience there.
(I think it used to be really popular, and now, well, not so much.)
