As the Korean culture continues to make waves in the Philippines, Smar’s newest face, no other than South Korean star Hyun Bin appreciates the mobile network’s part in bringing Korean entertainment closer to Filipino fans.
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 an exciting new commercial.
In this commercial, Hyun Bin is seen riding a speeding sports car before revealing himself and saying the new tagline which evokes Smart’s blazing-fast and widely-available mobile Internet.
That mobile Internet has been helping Filipinos Gigafy their passion for everything South Korea by allowing its subscribers to access and stream Hyun Bin’s K-dramas and movies, as well as other popular and trending Korean titles and K-pop music on their devices.
“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. 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
