Super old idea! Done many times. For example, Nivea in China has done a bust shelter execution of 'immediate improvement' after using their Nivea product. It looks horrible....so was this. Don't get the idea at all. Furthermore, who wants to go to Singapore!

"Bowww Wowww"

The Nivea China ad looks horrible but this looks good!

Horrorshow concept, but agree it needs explanation. Very suitable for an airline or travel ad.

This is not call copy, moroon! Its only using the same medium. Every one can use this medium. Boris Ljubicic also using it and he win an awards too! I personally like the VW medium concept! Smart way to tell the product benefit!

I agree with you, Juat. Its a same medium but different idea apply on different concept.
I like the VW ad, clever use for the medium!
