While perusing the weekly delivery of The Economist (oh, that bastion of true liberal sensability, I know!), I stumbled across a very interesting ad on page 47.
The ad below is not the exact one from the mag, but is eerily similar and, therefore, makes this whole campaign more disturbing. See if you notice anything at all odd about this ad campaign for Korea Air...
Maybe it is just me, but I immediately saw a mushroom cloud in the imagery. Just about the last thing I can imagine the marketers wanted me to think about when deciding whether or not to fly Korea air and possibly drop in on Seoul for a visit...
I may be crazy, but how did this get through the ad approval chain?
