The Everything Truck

In Korea, you'll find many trucks that roll around at 10 kph hollering messages over a make-shift speaker system advertising their products. I remember the first time I heard one of these at work and I thought maybe there was a firetruck outside. There are all sorts of trucks that sell anything from crabs, peanuts, socks, and some even advertise their recycling services of old computer parts. Yesterday in Itaewon, I came across a truck that beats all the rest. A truck that sells, well, everything.

The recorded audio message said, "everything! everything! pots and pans, brooms and clothes hangers, bath products, saws to screws, etc... EVERYTHING.
