You Know, That Might Make Me Pick Up A Samsung HD TV

in Korean Tabloid Crap

I had just finished watching this video in The Sun when I figured, since I was there and all, to take a quick peak at Page 3. Lo and behold, however, I learned that none other than Samsung (Dae~hanminguk!) has done a viral ad with The Sun’s Page 3 Girls:

The girls in the ad, BTW, are (following links NSFW!) Nikkala, Danni and Peta.

Somebody at Samsung deserves a medal for this.

This seems to be a popular idea at the moment. But it’s so clearly rigged.

This is what really happens if you try to get a woman in a bikini to juggle with a ball.

Good commercial for us male viewers but it doesn’t really sell me on that brand of TV.

Doesn’t matter anyway since I’m boycotting Korean goods and will buy a Sony.

‘Atta boy. Bravo…your life.

Life does go on just fine without Samsung.

Ah, doesn’t time in Korea make you miss quality newspapers from the good old UK.

What a tossknob. Will you no longer be drinking Korean mineral water, using Korean toilet paper, not eating Hanwoo beef, cancelling your contract with your Korean mobile phone provider, deleting from your computer hard drive all your pictures of your Korean students.
no, probably not.

delete the pictures of naked Korean girls as well.

you might not have a lot of those. Unlike Japan, Korea made those illegal for quite some time. Not sure how lax it is now.

SWLEE, I guess it is okay for Koreans to boyocott American goods, right?

Unfortunately, I have a lot of Samsung products at home right now and I have to say their garbage for the most part. Bad experiences with a lot of Samsung’s stuff.

I think people like maekchu are growing in number, and SWlee’s ignorance shows why Maekchu is right.

I love hearing from these racist kyopos that have no problem with selling out their own countrymen. They bite the hand that feeds them but at the same time love reaping the benfits from it.

Disgusting behavior

It’s really quite amusing reading posts like maekchu’s, and those that agree with him…these responses that attempt to show difference in opinion and ignorance merely prove how much alike *both* sides are. Kyopos complaining about kyopos? That’s gold.

FYI #2, current generation Sony TV’s (with the exception of their small OLED screen) use Samsung LCD substrates. Nearly all semi/+ complex electronic equipment has something manufactured by k-conglomerates, so ya might as well become an ascetic.

bloody magic!

…and anyone who thinks that Sony is a better company than Samsung is an idiot. I guess you forgot about their love of root-kits and DRM, eh? And I suppose Blu-ray won out over HD-DVD because it’s a superior product, huh?
