Image
  Introduction — A commercial like a short winter movie As the commercial begins, the screen immediately contrasts the cold winter air with the warmth of the sun. Actor Jang Ki-yong's calm performance goes beyond simply introducing the product, creating the image of a "companion" who accompanies the winter. Viewers can imagine the heartwarming moments on set from the small details in the scene. Episode 1 — Push and Pull with the Wind Machine: The Turmoil Behind a Calm Expression Early in the filming, Jang Ki-yong had to maintain a natural expression during a "showdown" with the strong wind equipment.

Waiting room hit song and rain scene created by IVE Yujin — NEPA filming log

Image
  Intro: Warm Winter, Warmer Location On a day when the cold wind made us button up our collars, NEPA's 25FW photoshoot was filled with warmth. Even before the cameras rolled, laughter spread among the staff, and IVE's Yujin was at the center of it all. The ad's theme, "All-Weather," wasn't just a clothing concept; it also empowered the entire atmosphere on set. A Hit Song Created on the Spot in the Waiting Room During the pre-shoot warm-up, Yujin created a simple rhythmic choreography, transforming the waiting room into an impromptu dance party. Tired faces instantly brightened, and the staff let go of the tension of the shoot for a moment. The small jokes and laughter naturally infused the final results with energy. An Unexpected Shower, a Scene More Real Than Planned A sudden downpour in one scene led not to panic, but to joy. While everyone was hesitating, Yujin beamed and said, "Isn't this the concept?" The shoot actually deepened with real ...

It's winter, so Hej! Nordisk — Cozy moments from Karina

Image
  Watching the "(25FW) Winter, Hej! Nordisk" ad, in which Karina from aespa captures the winter atmosphere to the fullest, my eyes suddenly lit up. Karina's signature calm charisma and warm smile combined to transform the chill of winter into a cozy, inviting moment. However, imagining the small moments that might have unfolded behind the scenes brings even more adorable and human moments to mind. Episode 1 — The Snowflake Sample Mutiny During Filming. There's a scene in the ad where Karina walks through fluttering snowflakes. In reality, artificial snow is often used, but I imagine that day, the wind was so strong that snowflakes kept landing on Karina's face. Karina blinked and smiled professionally, but the staff must have burst into laughter, asking, "Is that real snow?" The point of the show is that these small mistakes actually look natural and endearing on screen. Episode 2 — The seriousness and wit of the outfit check. With the Nordic-inspired kn...

Behind the Scenes of Daesung Mymac's "Believe It." Cha Eun-woo's Commercial: From Hilarious NGs to the Details

Image
Can a single word, "Believe it.", linger this long? In the 2027 Daesung Mymac commercial, Cha Eun-woo added excitement to the topic of studying. The following anecdotes will make it clearer why this commercial, though quiet, remains so powerfully memorable. 1. "Believe it." 17 takes and one smile We experimented with various tones for the main tagline, and after several takes, we chose a shot that captured a natural smile. That single moment, shifting from prepared determination to relaxed sincerity, set the tone for the commercial. 2. Small notes that transformed props into "real study" The workbook on the desk was usually empty, but during breaks, actual notes were piled at the top of the pages. A single, bleak line like "Incorrect answer note: Just write down why you got it wrong" added authenticity to the scene. 3. A broken bell and a single "tap" In situations where a bell on location wasn't available, we used on-site sounds to...

This short, addictive commercial centers around a series of fun anecdotes that showcase IU's charm. It's designed to capture the viewer's attention, making for a quick read that's sure to amuse, and ultimately, a natural progression of product highlights.

Image
  Introduction Do you think all beauty ads these days seem the same? The "cepoLABã…£CepoLab 30s Before Cosmeticsã…£CepoLab Biogenics" campaign was different. Actress Kim Min-ha's unassuming face, rhythmic editing, and the unexpected message of "Before Cosmetics" combined to pack a narrative and meme-driven punchline into a mere 30 seconds. Beyond simply conveying information, there are several scenes that are both entertaining and memorable. Today, we'll compile an "Exploration Log" focusing on the episodes viewers will enjoy within those 30 seconds. 1 . Shuttle Run Between "Science" and "Emotion" Advertisements often become stiff when they talk about science, while adding emotion can obscure the information. This video boldly brings the two together. The narration, which breaks down skin at the cellular level, intersects with Kim Min-ha's subtle facial expressions, creating a rapid back-and-forth between "evidence and empa...

HyperX Lee Jung-jae TVCF Behind the Scenes: The Power of a 7-Degree Angle and a 0.3-Second Rest

Image
  1) The density of the first scene: "The concept is already complete from the entrance." The classic suit fit, relaxed stride, and the moment he crosses the threshold, the camera subtly pulls back, creating a different sense of space. It's rumored that the timing of this scene was fine-tuned frame by frame on set. Viewers already sense the office mood the brand is trying to convey with just this brief "entrance." Keywords in comments include "Appearance = Completed" and "The entrance ticket is the sound." A single, immersive opening gesture sets the credibility of the entire video. 2) Subtle differences in facial expressions: "7-degree head angle, 3% smile intensity." Lee Jung-jae's strength lies in his ability to create persuasiveness without exaggeration.

Image
  An unforgettable tension once seen, a charm that becomes even more enjoyable the second time. Lee Soo-ji, the current trend, has joined forces with Spotler. It wasn't just a simple modeling collaboration; it was a series of moments that made you wonder, "Can an advertisement be this fun?" Today, I've compiled a selection of the most hilarious episodes that viewers particularly enjoyed, in a format suitable for posting on Google Blogspot, in about 2,000 characters. From the moment you press the play button to the very end, these moments will keep you laughing—let's unpack them one by one. 1. The Audio Cue Misunderstanding Incident: "It's Not Cut, It's Snot!" What resonated throughout the set wasn't "Cut!" but a silent beep. Lee Soo-ji instantly misinterpreted the director's hand gesture as "Cut!" and abruptly stopped breathing. Everyone was silent—and then immediately resumed. The problem didn't end there. Lee Soo...

SK Telecom Korean ad, iPhone 17 Pro—Emilyecporter shows off "professional teamwork."

Image
There are moments when you find yourself smiling while watching an introductory commercial. The [SK Telecom] iPhone 17 Pro campaign, "Being a Professional Together" was just such a piece. Led by model Emilyecporter, it cheerfully portrays how cutting-edge devices bridge the gap between people and elevate our daily lives. Today, we'll focus on episodes viewers will find particularly engaging, unraveling the hidden elements and subtleties of the commercial. Main Content 1.

Korean ad, [PEPERO X Stray Kids] Pepero Day, the reason it was sweeter because it was short

Image
  Pepero Day is a small thrill on the calendar. This year, thanks to the [PEPERO X Stray Kids] campaign featuring Stray Kids as the models, that excitement became even more palpable. It only lasted 15 seconds, but the subtle facial expressions, timing, and chemistry between the members were so rich that I found myself rewatching it multiple times. Today, I'll explore key moments viewers will find engaging and the behind-the-scenes details behind them. 1. "The Beauty of Timing" The Hand Offering Pepero, the Eyes Receiving It. In the first scene, the hand offering the Pepero and the gaze reflecting it flash by in a fleeting moment. Yet, this split-second difference in timing creates a thrill. The moment the member's hand enters the frame, the recipient's gaze shifts slightly, leading to a natural smile. Fans are likely to debate whether this eye contact timing was intentional or a coincidence born from on-set chemistry. Commercials are ultimately about timing emotio...

Korean ad, NMIXX 'Ollio Of The Day' Behind the Scenes: Episode 10 Hilarious

Image
The "Ollio of the Day" campaign, an ad that makes the daily routine of drinking a cup cute and cool, is the face of this episode. NMIXX is the face of this ad. Known for their solid vocals and team chemistry, we've compiled a series of episodes viewers will enjoy, showcasing how they transformed small, everyday rituals into fun. We recommend this to anyone looking for a light smile and those who don't want to miss the delightful details behind the scenes. 1) The Pace of a "Routine" in a Single Opening Cut The first scene has a brisk tempo. The members repeat the same thing at different times. From the familiar facial expressions reacting to the alarm, to the rhythm of their hands holding the cup, to the slightly exaggerated movements. This repetition never gets boring thanks to the perfect timing of the editing and sound effects. Viewers will naturally think, "Should I try that too?" It's a clean opening that convinces the audience of the routi...

Korean ad : The Story Behind the Dermafirm x Huening Kai Advertisement

Image
  DERMAFIRM's 15-second commercial, "Will You See Me For Just 3 Days?" is short but impactful. Model Huening Kai's clear and transparent aura, coupled with the intuitive hook of "3 days," creates a compelling composition that captures the viewer's imagination. Today, we'll explore some of the filming anecdotes and hidden highlights that viewers will find engaging. 1. The Secret of the 3-Day Hook The Timing of Eye Contact The key to this commercial lies in the first three seconds. The director repeatedly used the phrase "For Just 3 Days" at the precise moment of eye contact between the camera and the subject, creating the illusion that the viewer is "talking to me?" During the shoot, Huening Kai fine-tuned the eye contact time to 1.2, 1.5, and 1.8 seconds, performing multiple takes. The 1.5-second version was the final cut. Too long could be overwhelming, and too short could be fleeting, so finding the golden ratio of "attract...

ITZY's Yuna, Fall Begins in the Fitting Room: Five Moments from 30 Seconds of Dynafit

Image
This fall, Dynafit's 30-second "Fitting Room" commercial featuring ITZY's Yuna is a short yet captivating highlight reel. Set in the intimate confines of a fitting room, it captures Yuna's sense of rhythm and playfulness, as well as her intense focus as a performer, in every single shot. Yuna's fitting room is essentially a "30 seconds behind the scenes." The nerves and excitement before the performance, the intense concentration just before the cameras roll, and the subtle playfulness in front of the mirror—all of this seamlessly flows together in a single shot. Viewers loved two key moments: First, the scene where Yuna puts on a new look, moves to the rhythm in front of the mirror, and subtly changes her expression. Second, the speed of the "look transition" as the fitting room curtains flutter open. Yuna demonstrates through her facial expressions, gaze, and steps that "a change in outfit changes the energy." Episode 1 "A ...

The North Face Ad Review: Park Bo-gum and Recycled Filling's Life-Likely Episode

Image
  The "Wind Test" in the First Scene A Moment When a Small Science Show Turns into Hilarity Early in the commercial, a scene appears where a gentle breeze gently hits the Nuptse jacket, seemingly to demonstrate its volume and warmth. The key here is Park Bo-gum's subtle facial expression: a slight startle at the touch of the wind, followed by a relaxed, heartfelt smile. Rather than explaining the product's performance in numbers, he uses facial muscles to convey the message, "Huh? It's warm!" The viewer understands this message faster than words, and they instantly develop a favorable impression. This is where a small science show transforms into a charming comedy. The Aesthetics of Recycling "A Story from Your Pocket" While the concept of recycled filling materials can be complex to explain, the commercial handles it as casually as pulling a small item out of a pocket. Objects symbolizing recycled materials brush past your hand, and the camera...

Stories Told by the Wind: Suzy's Whispers of Silk Star Advertisement

Image
  1) The Sound Team's Obsession with Capturing the "Sound of Silk" The sensitivity of a fashion film is ultimately determined by its details. This film, in particular, uses the "sound of silk rustling" as a key element. On set, microphones were hidden along the edges of the costumes to capture the friction between fabrics as clearly as possible, and the tiny "square" sounds created with each step were separately recorded. Later, the staff nicknamed them "Sound Warriors." Thanks to this, moments of "luxury" were conveyed through sound alone, without the need for scene changes. Rewatching the footage reveals why the sound of silk seems to be more prominent than the background music in quieter cuts. 2) Suzy's "0.5-second" facial expressions: more resets than NGs? The highlight of this film lies in Suzy's fleeting facial expressions. Rather than abruptly shifting gestures, the "0.5-second" details—a wavering ...

Korea ad, Zo In-sung's K2 25FW Airdive Filming Set Episode

Image
1) The Secret of "Breathtaking Silence": Zo In-sung's Laugh, a Beat Late Early in the commercial, Zo In-sung catches his breath with the sound of waves playing softly. On screen, it looks like a truly professional silence, but on set, the staff turned on a giant fan just in time with the waves, causing Jo In-sung's hair to rise slightly, joking, "Hey... my hair just dived in for a second." This remark instantly dissolved the tension on set, and the subsequent deep breathing cuts felt much more natural. The reason the silence in the commercial feels comfortable and relaxed is thanks to this cheerful on-set atmosphere. 2) The Shuffle Step, Proving Airdive's "Lightness of Air" The core of the Airdive line is its lightweight, wind-like feel. During a test to demonstrate this, Zo In-sung, half-jokingly and half-competitively, declared, "I could dance at this level." The problem was that the floor was gravel. Everyone gasped at the slight m...
