My wife is doing driving school, and she failed her driving test yesterday on "a poor reaction to an erratic driver". Now she needs five more hours of driving practice before she can take the test again.

The school administers the test and does the lessons. This extra practice and test is going to cost 170,000 won. I can't help but feel she was failed on purpose.

In Korea if you yell, shout, and flail your arms enough, you will eventually get your way. She can turn that fail into a pass.

That's what I figure, but she is too timid. I suggested I go there with her, but that would probably backfire.
