Thai got your heartstrings now. KDrama no more!
Finally, a nation has “out drama’d” Korean dramas. Credit the Thai’s for this magnanimous feat. Though the themes are similar (every possible human tragedy possible being experienced simultaneously), the Thai’s manage to do it in 3 minutes AND with an insurance commercial. Prepare to cry. Hide the women and children…
(Thanks EDM for the original posting of this)
OK, if that didn’t F-up your tear ducts enough, here’s another one for good measure. It’s a Pantene commercial. And this time, it’s about a deaf/mute, Thai girl who wishes to learn the violin. Drink lots of water cause this one could fatally dehydrate you through bawling excess. Let it out, let it all out…
I prefer this to an actual K-drama. All the emotion without the absurdity.
Wow, both of them really made me cry. I do prefer this over K-dramas because these are plausible real-life situations that happen in that region.
how are they affording 3 and 4 minute commercials over there?
call me cold hearted, but I still prefer Tony Jaa over melodrama anyday.
Here’s a Thai Insurance commercial that gets me every time: http://youtu.be/LR5mZqeDNtg
awesome, thanks.
every time i see one of these in a thai movie theater during the previews i think its a trailer for a film, but at the end it tells me to get insurance or start a savings account. and i consider it because i wanna be a good person!
HFSB (thats Holy F-ing Shitballs)…
Its like porn for the emotions. Visuals that get right to the point.
I even need some Kleenex and a cigarette!
OMG the pantene commercial; insufficient eye leakage warning.
That there is a movie.
