69 year old who failed driving test 960 times gets free car

Cha Sa-sun, 69, was given a free Soul vehicle from Hyundai-Kia Motors group in a campaign to give away cars to people in need. Cha is known for failing her driver's license test over 950 times.



Cha finally passed her driver's license test earlier this year after trying over 950 times since 2005. Her story drew a lot of attention even in the foreign media.I rememeber talking about this story with my kids in class.

Netizens had to post over 100 messages to root for her in the campaign in order for her to be considered to win. Netizens ended up posting over 1,000 messages a day in support of Cha.
