■I don`t know if these videos will open or not.
■Please let me know by leaving comments if they don’t open.
■I`d like you to see/watch these videos.
■ I think they are so funny.
■Korean netizens used to call people who drive absurdly, like in these videos, “”Mrs.Kim”.
■But why don`t they ever call them “Mr. Lee” or “Mrs. Park”?, always just “Mrs. Kim”?
■=But why don`t they (ever) call them “Mr. Kim”, always just “Mrs. Kim”?
=Why don`t they call them “Mrs.Lee” or “Mrs. Park”?, always just “Mrs. Kim”?
■I guess/assume (that) it`s probably not just because “Kim” is the most common surname in all of Korea, but also because most people assume woman are worse drivers than men.
■Therefore they used to call those who are bad at driving and parking “Mrs. Kim”.
■Oh, now that I’ve looked carefully, these videos weren’t taken in Korea.
■Anyway, It`s really funny!
■Oh, some might say it`s misogynistic. They don`t need to take it so seriously.
■Just watching it once and you’ll laugh out loud /burst out laughing. It`s ok!

(2010.12.26) -<<金夫人：停车的高手）>>
停车的高手”金夫人”（视频）
不知道你们能不能看到这段视频。
如果你们看不见这段视频的时候，请留言告诉我.
我觉得这段视频太好笑了，我想与你们一起看一看。
最近在韩国网上,把这种荒唐[huāngtáng]可笑,不象话地的开车方式戏称为 “金夫人的开车”
不过，为什么都不叫“金先生” 叫 “金夫人“呢？
为什么都不叫 “李夫人？ ”或“朴夫人？”叫“金夫人”？
我估计有可能/可能 在韩国“金”姓/姓“金”的人最多，(大半/大部分人姓金，人数最多的姓就是 “金”）
而且开车的方面，女人比男人开车不熟练的人多，因此可能这样开车得荒唐[huāngtáng]可笑的开车的人 被叫“金夫人”。 是不是？
不过，我仔细地看后，有感觉这不是在韩国拍的。不管怎么样太可笑了！
也有些人提意见，这是不是贬低[biǎndī]女人的问题啊？哈哈～～请不用想得太深了吧？还有上边的照片也是个“金夫人”开车和停车的其它的照片。请欣赏一下！
I read this one as is.
by the way, you would say EITHER "Just watching it once you’ll laugh out loud"
OR
"Just watch it once and you’ll laugh out loud" (burst out laughing is correct as well)
zanster, Thank you very much for your recording! It`s very helpful for me. o(^.^)o ~bangbang~

2010.12.26) <주차의 고수 -”김여사”>
여러분들께 이 비디오가 보일런지 안 보일지 모르겠습니다. 만약에 이 비디오가 안 보이면 답 글로 남겨서 좀 알려 주셔요. 이 비디오가 너무 재미있어서 여러분들께도 보여 드리려고 합니다.
요즘 한국 인터넷에서는 이런 황당하고 우습고 말도 안 되는 운전을 하는 사람을 가리켜 “김여사의 운전”이라고 부르고 있답니다.
그런데, 왜 “김 선생님” 이라고 하지 않고 “김여사”라고 하는 걸까요?
왜 “이 여사”나 “박 여사”라 부르지 않고 “김여사”라고 하는 걸까요?
제 짐작에는 아마도 한국에서는 김씨가 가장 흔한 성인데다가, 여자가 남자보다 운전이 미숙한 경우가 많아서 이런 황당한 운전자들을 가리켜 “김여사”라고 부르는 게 아닐까요?
그런데 자세히 보니 이 비디오는 한국에서 찍은 것이 아니네요^^ 아무튼 정말 너무 웃깁니다! 혹시 어떤 분은 ‘여성 비하’라고 말씀하시려는 건 아닌지요? 하하, 너무 깊게 생각 하지 마셔요^^
그리고 위의 사진 역시 김여사님의 또 다른 운전/주차 모습입니다.감상해 보셔요^^ Korean Audio>>
