A few days a week I'm woken up by loud music blasting out of speakers, and a woman's voice. It's always the same melody, something you'd likely hear in an elevator. The woman's voice is soothing and sweet.
I always hear this early in the morning when I'm in bed and I think to myself "for the love of all that is holy, SHUT UP!"
I get up one morning, because at this point the music is driving me nuts, I have no idea where it's coming from, and it's really loud. I whip open the window to start yelling and... it's the GARBAGE TRUCK!
They come a few days a week, empty the recycling, take the trash, in these big neon green trucks that say "Project Gwangju" on them. I still have no clue what the recorded lady is saying, but it's one small mystery in Korea I seem to have figured out.
