It looks like the most popular TVC of late is getting a sequel. Based on posts from Smart Communications’ official social media accounts, another TVC starring Hyun Bin is “crash landing” in the Philippines soon!
In a Facebook post uploaded on June 16, the telco giant teased of an upcoming second ad, through a short video featuring the bedimpled leading man. “We promised you more of Hyun Bin, are you ready? Stay tuned for updates!” it read.
On his partnership with Smart, Peopleasia’s June-July 2020 cover boy reportedly had this to say: “I said yes to Smart because I know that connectivity plays a big role in linking K-Drama to Filipinos, I would not have felt this kind of reception from our friends in the Philippines if the fans did not have access to the content we offer.”
The actor added, “More than Korean films and series, technology helped us share our culture. I’m glad to be part of an era when we are blessed with the opportunity to inspire and entertain through connectivity. Because of streaming apps we are still able to live a life bigger than what we experience right now, which is what Giga Life is all about, and it’s all possible because Simple. Smart ako!”
Hyun Bin, beloved to Filipinos thanks to his well-known roles in hits such as Crash Landing On You and My Name Is Kim Sam-soon, was tapped to be the face of Smart’s new “Simple. Smart Ako” campaign in a high-octane new commercial. In this commercial, Hyun Bin is seen riding a speeding sports car before revealing himself and saying the new tagline—all of which evoke Smart’s blazing-fast and widely-available mobile internet.
In helping ignite the “Hyun Bin Phenomenon,” Smart draws from its history of innovating the simple things that are life-changing. And to further “Gigafy” its customers’ passions, Smart now enables its subscribers to enjoy their favorite Korean dramas and movies on their preferred online streaming services with Smart Signature postpaid plans, which give them 5 GB of data every month for as low as P999/month; or through Smart’s Giga Video offer for prepaid subscribers, which provides access to Video All Day and 1 GB of open-access data for three days for as low as P50.
