In case ya'll were wondering, Korean's don't know or understand what a thingajigger is. Guess they don't teach that word in the Engrish classes here. Here's how I know...
I split lunch with a friend of mine today. She went to get a drink while I waited for our order. When our sandwich was ready, I knew we needed another plate or something so we could half it. So, I asked for another "sandwich thingajigger."
The poor guy just cocked his head to one side and said "Ne?" That would be the equivalent of "huh?" I held up our sandwich and said can I have another sandwich holder thing. He then said oh and handed me one, kinda giggling and smiling at me.
I guess he hasn't gotten to the southern part of his Engrish lessons.
