There is a certain kind of people who never give up and keep trying till they achieve the desired result. Cha Sa-Soon, 68-year old woman from South Korea, is one of them.

Since April 2005, Cha Sa-Soon has been giving the written exam for a driver license almost daily. The exam requires 60% correct answers to pass, but she had been getting 30-50%. She finally passed the exam on her 950th try, getting 60% correct.

The license didn't come cheap. For each attempt she had to 6000 won (US $5.17) in application fees. Over the years she has spent 5.7 million won (US $4907).

Mrs Cha has been determined to obtain her licence so that she can get a car to make her door-to-door business a little easier.

But now she has finally passed the written exam with a score of 60, according to police official Choi Young-chul.

However, Mrs Cha will not be buying a new motor just yet - she still needs to pass the driving part of the exam before she gets her licence.

The grandmother has become a familiar figure at the drivers' license agency in Jeonju, 130 miles south of Seoul.

In February this year, after Mrs Cha had failed her 771st attempt, traffic police officer Jung-seok said: "I feel sorry every time I see Cha fail.

"When she passes, I'll make a commemorative tablet myself and give it to her."

She still needs to pass the driving test. I wonder who many attempts that would take? Congratulations and best of luck to Mrs Cha!
