Daewoo Maepsy
The Daewoo Maepsy (Korean: 대우 맵시) is a compact car manufactured by Daewoo (and its predecessor Saehan) in South Korea from December 1977 to February 1989. The Maepsy was a rebadged version of the PF50 Isuzu Gemini (itself a rebadged Opel Kadett C). It was originally sold as the Saehan Gemini (Saehan Bird in export markets); in February 1982 the car became the Saehan Maepsy. In 1983 it was called the Daewoo Maepsy after Saehan Motor was bought out by the Daewoo Group, and after a facelift later that year the car became the Daewoo Maepsy-Na (New Maepsy, 맵시나). The word "maepsy" means "beautiful" in Korean.
