South Korean Cha Sa-Soon is back on the international headlines after almost 15 years since his last performance. He recently resurfaced on the Reddit platform to talk about how he spent three years trying to get a driver’s license just to visit his kids.
He made his first attempt at the written test in April 2005, but was unsuccessful. However, the South Koreans took this process as a challenge and never gave up. She kept retaking it until she passed, taking the exam every day, five days a week, for four years. Finally, he passed the written test on the 860th attempt.
In the practice test, Cha Sa Soon had to try 10 times, with a total of 960 exams left to pass in order to get his driver’s license. How much did 960 attempts cost in total? About 12,500 euros (11,000 pounds).
For his international prominence, in 2010 the South Korean won a €13,000 (£11,640) car from Hyundai. Nearly 15 years after the story broke, it recently resurfaced on the Reddit platform, sparking a wave of reposts from netizens that highlight the insistence on never giving up on goals.
In 2010, instructor Cha Sa-Soon recounted what happened when Cha Sa-Soon achieved this feat: “When she finally got her license, we all cheered for her, hugged her and gave her flowers.” “It was like a huge burden had been lifted off our shoulders. We didn’t have the heart to tell her to leave because she kept showing up,” he added.
