    With a fully functional, affordable, universal public transport system, owning a car is a luxury, not a need.

      It never was a need. This is a myth build by the car manufacturers. They lobbied for the car centered model with oil companies. This never was the model.

      The same applies for suburbs full of houses.

      Well SK is also a pretty centralized country. Most people live in or right around Seoul.

      Not much point in owning a car in such a case.
