When I first came to Korea back in 2000, I heard about guys driving around Seoul in cars, yelling out to Korean girls 'Ya ta!' and many Korean girls seemed willing to hop in if the car was nice enough.
Here it is, 15 years later, and it seems little has changed...

Yes, a sample size of 8, in 4, different cities, done once. No information if the same kind of car was used, or the guy driving, type of area, clothes, etc... Really scientific. |

It wasn't everywhere and all over Seoul. It was just in certain specific places. At least that's the way I heard it from my students in 1995. |

This study is obviously up to normal Chinese quality standards. |

I guess this means the guy who was thinking of bringing his Corvette over knew a lot more than those responding to him gave him credit for. |

Ah yes, that old ajosshi charm.
Shouting combined with a willingness to spend. A complete demonstration of the skills required in this society. |
