Korean Help

Can anyone who reads Korean translate these characters for me?

First character:
Gah

Second:
Ool

Third:
San

I don't know what it means though, my vocabulary sucks.

edit: San means mountain, but not in all contexts.

To give a background on what this is, I bought a Hyundai Santa Fe a few weeks ago. There are dozens on the road in my town and I was tired of looking like every other vehicle so I bought a South Korean license plate for the front.



From what I can tell, the character on the left means "temporary" but I can't figure out the rest.

According to my sister, ool san is like a district.

The top part of the license plate show the city and district that the car is registered. On that particular license plate, the car was from Ulsan, a city in South Korea (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ulsan) and from the 88th district.

The 가 (ga) at the front is just a character used to distinguish between different license plate numbers. Ga would be the equivalent of the letter "A" in English (it's a combination of the first consonant and first vowel). the KDM-1 is kinda strange because most Korean license plates have 4 digits that follow the character instead of actual English letters. A typical license plate number would be GA 1234.

The person above me got it perfectly including the oddness of it. (I was born in Korea and lived there till I was 13.)

I have never seen such a license plate before... Maybe it's for government/military or something... or maybe it's just a fun weird thing people came up with. @_@

It's a novelty plate and not a legit plate. I just wanted a play for the front of my truck so I could replace the dealer plate that was on it.

Thanks a lot for everyone's help, it's much appreciated to know I don't have cocks dicks olol written on my plate in Korean.
