Hey, creators! Ready to craft something iconic today?
Unbeknownst to many outside the region, South Koreans have a unique daily ritual—enjoying at least one mini-yoghurt drink every day! Delivering this tangy treat to the masses are over 13,000 dedicated women employed by Korea Yakult Co., affectionately known as 'Yakult ajummas' or more recently, 'Fresh Managers.'
These hardworking women once had to pull heavy carts loaded with yoghurt and ice, but thanks to Korea’s innovative spirit, they now zip around in motorized refrigerators—fondly referred to as 'little yoghurt zambonis.' Today, more than 4,000 of these electric carts patrol the streets, ensuring that everyone gets their refreshing dairy fix.
Our friends at Paper World On The Desk (PWOTD), a popular papercraft blog in South Korea, have recreated the latest model of these ELECTRIC REFRIGERATED CARTs—Coco 3.0, short for 'cold and cool.' This adorable, round, robot-like electric cart has become the perfect companion for the Yakult ajummas, making their deliveries easier and more efficient.
Now, you can bring a piece of this charming Korean culture to your desk with the Electric Yogurt Cart papercraft model! You’ll need just three sheets of paper (80gsm) to build this delightful replica.
