감탄사 translates simply to 'joyous exclamation' the '사' at the end isn't 'company 社' but 'word 辭'

These are hilarious - but nothing will ever be as good as Finger boom.


They should just have a vote between
Finger boom
Magic Ns
and be done with it.
I think we all know what the foreign scene would go for.

KT Team Kill.
Or KT TK for short.

They really need to find someone proficient in English to make these names ._.
OR JUST USE FINGERBOOM D:

[edit] I just noticed how much KT TK looks like a crying crab. K-(T T)-K
All the more reason to name it that.
._.???

Once again, KT (Korea Telecom) seems to be rebranding itself. The gist of the ads is that "wow" is good, "OLLEH!" is even better. It's also hello backwards.

The slogan: 당신을 위한 (For you) 최고의 (The best) 감탄사 (impressive-company)

olleh KT

Once again, if you're impressed or something is impressive, you say wow. If it's even more impressive than that, you say olleh.

I think this may have something to do with SK's new slogan/rebranding effort, i.e. it seems like KT is responding to it.. They've been running ads for "생각데로 T", which roughly means "[The same thing] as [you] were thinking Telecom". BTW, SK Telecom isn't South Korea Telecom, because the initials SK used to stand for SungKyeong, the old name of the conglomerate that owns the business. SungKyeong Group has now changed their name to SK with the letters meaning nothing in particular, kind of like how KFC used to be Kentucky Fried Chicken and is now just KFC.


KFC still means Kentucky Fried Chicken.

You should really check the names of the area you are in when you read Snopes.

IGN (Imagine Games Network) and CA (Computer Associates) are two actual US companies that are now officially named those letters instead of the words they once stood for and would be better examples

Personally, I actually don't mind Olleh. The olleh ads (in Korea) are actually pretty funny.

LOL! How can they fail so bad with coming up with a decent name. XD
I believe in the almighty Grötslev! -- I am never serious and you should never believe a thing I say. Including the previous sentence.
