@cocoa I relived to hear you are not hurt.
Your Kia looks so poor
What tire did you used? Is it Kumho Solus

@[email protected] It was OE tire, I think that was Kumho
That Kia repaired perfectly at this time!

@cocoa It's nice.
How much was it cost to reopair your car?

@[email protected] It was covered by insurance, I was paid 300,000 KRW. Insurance paid more than 3,000,000 KRW.

@cocoa I see.
Glad you were able to fix your car with little expense.

@[email protected] Yeah If that not covered by insurance It was difficult

@cocoa Insurance doesn't save your life, but they save your expense and mental stability.

How much are you cost for insurance per month (or year?)
I cost 6,659 JPY/month.
It covers personal injury and property damage till unlimited. It also covers my car till 2,750,000 JPY.

@[email protected] A few years ago, I used to drive a car that I bought myself, so I paid for the insurance myself, which was about 700,000 yen per year. Now I drive a rental car with insurance included on a long-term lease, so I don't know the exact value.

@cocoa 700,000 JPY!?
Is it 6,170,000 KRW?
It's too expensive!

In Korea, are car insurances commonly expensive? Or is the price depends on model of the car?

@[email protected] depends on model of the car and driver age and I was really young at that time.

@cocoa I see.
I also spend a lot of money for insurance in my young age. If I choose CDW, the cost would be sky high.

What car did you own in that time?

@[email protected] It was IONIQ 5 Long Range. ​​

@cocoa Wow! You are rich. I'm jealous.

In Japan, BEV's insurance are highly expensive. Tesla are rejected from some insurance companies.

@[email protected] In Korea, Companies can't reject If car owner wants get covered about required insurance(책임보험), but they can invoice high bill and that unlimited.

I'm not rich, at least now! ​​ At that time, government subsidy was made EV to reasonable choice.
