Korean Cleaning Lady
In: Ajuma| Coex Mall| Daily Life in Seoul, South Korea| Korean Culture
18 May 2009Yet, another attraction at COEX Mall in Seoul. I was walking back to the subway when I noticed this lady screaming past me on her scooter…. a few minutes later, she came whizzing back but this time I noticed a sweeper in front of her scooter along with other cleaning supplies and gear in the back. I really admire the fact that she is able to work with the aid of technology and Korean ingenuity.
Video of the cleaning lady at COEX. Notice the admirable shot she made tossing the bottle into the garbage can without getting out of the scooter (behold, the power of the ajuma). I actually had to run despite a few laughs from strangers to videotape her in action. After noticing she was being taped at the end of her run, she politely greeted me and smiled. What a sweet lady! This has to be one of my favorite moments in Korea thus far.
