The South Korean woman who got her driving license after trying ... 960 times!!!

A PERSON could know South Korea for a long time without knowing Wanju, an obscure county 112 miles south of Seoul. And, at least until recently, a person could know a lot about Wanju without ever hearing of Cha Sa-soon, a 69-year-old woman who lives alone in the mountain-ringed village of Sinchon.

Now, however, Ms. Cha is an unlikely national celebrity.

This diminutive woman, now known nationwide as “Grandma Cha Sa-soon,” has achieved a record that causes people here to first shake their heads with astonishment and then smile: She failed her driver’s test hundreds of times but never gave up. Finally, she got her license — on her 960th try. More...

Don't miss:

  1. 66-year-old in India fails board exam for 45th. time!!!
  2. 86-year-old undergraduate in India sits for final exams!!! 
  3. 93 years old, and still feeling horny!!! Hilarious!
  4. 100-year-old woman gets degree a day before dying!!!
  5. World's oldest school pupil, 90, dies in Kenya...
  6. After 154th arrest, he tells judge: I don't need a lawyer; I've been in this court more than you!!!
