This commercial is probably one of the most deceiving commercials that I've ever watched. It was also the most hilarious commerical I've seen in a while. Yesterday night, my friend sent me this link asking me what do I think about it. My friend and I always send each other random links to random funny videos to laugh at and this video was the topic of the night. "WOW you're gross" was my first response. "Just keep watching" he says, and at this point my other friends who were busy doing their own things heard the sound from my computer and started to wonder. All their responses were like, "what in the world are you watching?" I was pretty shocked but then I watched it to the end because my friend told me to.
SHES EATING NOODLES!
I was speechless, everyone started laughing and they went back to doing their own thing.
This commercial was something that started off very deceiving and now I think about it, I wouldn't be able to imagine what the situation would be like if I watched it on TV. It worked though, because forever will those korean noodles stay in my head even though I am not korean and I had no idea what was written in their tagline.
The whole concept was brilliant in my opinion; the idea of using a pretty girl doing motions that could lead to different ideas actually worked very well so that people will remember this product. The idea of sex really does work to sell because as a person who does not understand what it was saying, I remember those noodles, and I am determined to try it one day.
