The new Sky phone commercial where he has all these choices of songs, which happen to be in English, but he walks by all of them until the Korean girl is dancing to a Korean song.

I'm not sure if I remember correctly, but I think he stopped at the girl because all the others were guys. I don't recall the songs. Anyway I'm sure I'll see it again soon to see if I'm off base.

How about the one with the guy playing the piano and the girls around him, although cute, and one says in Korean "You're 'pretty' ?"
Can't remember the Korean now and don't care to try to type it. |

I can't believe some of you are selecting the commercial mentioned above, and I can't believe what it is being ripped for. Geez... the guy is walking by a bunch of guys mostly (there is one girl rapping) and he stops when he walks up to a stunner. So would I.... she beautiful. As for it being a Korean Song... there aren't even any words in her portion of the commercial. .. at least not in the edit of the commerical I've seen on a number of occasions. |

That's what I figured.
Let's see it again (later) to confirm.
Hmm.. ...Guy walks past a bunch of guys until he sees a
hot girl, then stops.
Crazy!
Just a normal commercial there, not as annoying as many others. |

| Well, IMHO it's still borderline racist. If they were just trying to show that the guy wanted to listen to some dancable downtempo they could've mixed up the other choices. Instead of having a huge line of black stereotypes they could've thrown in some polka, some blues, some boyband, some Top 40, some traditional Korean music, . . . and so on. |

Then, you are too sensitive and a perfect example of everything that is wrong with the West. |

The Sky Phone Commercial makes sense to me. I've seen too many young Korean men g'd out like thay've robbed 50 Cent, but the hardest music on their i-river is ��ȿ��.
There were other women in the commercial, but they were dancing to actual hip-hop, not candy-@ss K-pop. The K-girl is the only hot one though. |

Ok, I can't believe that no one listed this one, the Rush Cash commercial is terriably annoying.
The stupid little laugh she does at the end. It makes me homocidal! |

Han Chae-young has more sexiness in her pinkie finger than most people do in their entire body. I'm willing to let all of her other flaws slide.

Has anyone seen the KIA car commercial that's fashioned like an action movie? Off-topic a bit because it's not really annoying, but the Australian actress in the ad, Sara Pope, is absolutely gorgeous and deserves some serious shine.
Bummer she's only 17. If she were older, she'd definitely get the Psychedelic Kimochi treatment. Alas.

One that annoys me a bit lately is "Hyundai Capital Prime Loan" where some cute blonde girl is giving a pronunciation lesson of how to say that.
So a guy's wife asks him something, and he proudly replies "Hyundai Capital Prime Loan" plus Korean.
Yet his pronunciation still stinks while he seems so proud of himself. He says it the way kids try to speak English in a sort of mocking way, thinking they are imitating Americans or something, but sorry, not really coming close.
I just find it annoying and sort of funny.

The "Tings" commercial, which has been on a lot recently, is a bit annoying too. But gotta say, the girl is cute. |
