The Daewoo badge will soon be history on cars in South Korea. General Motors Co. is killing the long-used GM Daewoo name in South Korea and will be putting the Chevy bowtie on its cars there by end of March.

 

The name, GM Daewoo Auto & Technology Co., has been in use since GM took over the struggling South Korean automaker in 2002. The new name will be GM Korea Co. The company said in a statement:

 

GM plans to make the changeover with the first-quarter launch of the Camaro, the automaker's first Chevrolet-badged entry in the South Korean market. The sports car is one of eight new or refreshed Chevrolet models scheduled for launch in South Korea this year. Other nameplates include the Spark and Aveo small cars, Cruze compact, Orlando small minivan and Capitva SUV.

  • Why can't we be better at airplanes?

    I really, really do not enjoy flying. As someone who has to get onto an airplane on a semi-regular basis, I really do not enjoy it (a feeling that has only grown over time).  Honestly, there's nothing about the experience that I enjoy. From having to take out your laptop and liquids at security (regulations vary from airport to airport), standing in line at immigration, mishandled/lost baggage, flight delays and cancellations, there's a lot that makes the experience much less seamless than

    10 terrible wedding songs

    A song can have a catchy title and/or chorus, but its true meaning is only found within its lyrics. If you're planning your wedding, any song about breakups, cheating/infidelity, and being the other woman has no business being part of the reception playlist. Most people, however, take the song title to be its meaning and don't consider its actual content. Here are 10 songs that sound romantic but should be avoided. 10) Irreplaceable – Beyoncé Don't mistake this for being

    I never knew Monster Trucks were so popular here

    Although it appeared to be selling out fast back when my friend shared the link to the Monster Jam Singapore event some months ago, I could never expect just how popular the event turned out to be until the day itself. You see, originating in the USA, Monster Trucks aren't really an international phenomenon, unlike F1 or other forms of motorsports. Even someone like me, who's very interested in cars, doesn't really know much about these massive machines. And yet, on the day of the even
