So I'm looking into the idea of trying to possibly rent out
a garage or some sort of 'protective' parking space where my car
will be out of sight or off the main streets where that is the only
place I can park now.

Knowing how Korea has almost next to nothing when it comes to parking, and its 'free for all' parking nature, I wonder if anything like this has ever been attempted or done by a waygookin before?

How could I go about asking for this in korean? I see a lot of empty buildings, stores, lots, storage places etc., in my area and would be interested in asking whoever owns those unoccupied places if I could use it as a parking garage...maybe even pay a monthly rental fee.

Today I had an eaten corn cob thrown at my car. Caught on camera but not the perpetrator. He apparently chucked it from the side probably avoiding my cam.

Walk around your area, there will probably be a parking lot that you can pay monthly to park your car there.

However, I am referencing Busan. When I lived in a house that was in an area with crowded side streets, I found a parking lot in which I paid 30 dollars a month to park my car there. 24 hours a day- lot is labelled, etc.

The catch was that it was a monthly lottery system, and if your number didn't get selected you would lose your spot.

For my work, rather that deal with the asshole security guard, I pay 40 dollars a month for a huge parking lot across the street. Once again this is Busan, and the parking lot is ran by the local GU office.

I have to ask, what does one have to do to get a corn cob thrown at you while driving?
