Whatever you want to call it. There is nothing more annoying than girls dressing up in "cute" uniforms (usually versions of ones that men wear) and act like little girls. Maybe that appeals to a certain type of person, but I find it to be excruciatingly annoying, and more than a little creepy.

If Justin Bieber is a 10 on an annoying scale of 1-10, Korean pop would be a 900

So what your saying is...a Hyundai is still a Hyundai in Korea.

How does the general population even know Hyundai's are reasonably reliable cars elsewhere these days? I guess that's the power of the internet.

the warranties don't define the overall performance of the car's integrity.
5-10 years ago people would never even consider a Korean car because you could buy a Japanese one for not much more and still be driving it 5-10 years down the road. But as of late, we are genuinely seeing (at least, in North America) better quality vehicles, albeit paired with very, VERY aggressive marketing from Korean auto companies.
Will they live up to the new brand image/integrity that they've created for themselves? Guess we'll see 5-10 more years down the road.
