Davichi‘s Kang Min Kyung has drawn quite a bit of attention recently due to this creepy POV commercial she filmed for Gillette, and I can understand why, both for the obvious reason and one that you might not expect.
Davichi‘s Kang Min Kyung recently filmed a new CF for Gillette razors, which was posted on an online community on January 20th under the title, “Kang Min Kyung’s razor CF that makes you feel weird“.
The video was filmed with the concept of “a shave that calls for a kiss“, and is taken from the perspective of a man who appears to be facing Kang Min Kyung. She says into the camera, “You look neater? It looks good” while smiling, and then the man’s hand rests on her shoulder as the camera closes in for a “kiss,” closing up on the singer’s lips with a kissing sound effect.
Okay, so one scenario is that it’s the start of a porno, and it very well could be. She does look like she’s one frame away from dropping her top off and sucking cock in the commercial, so I get that.
However, the creepier angle is seeing this from a femme fatale stalker scenario. After all, a company like Gillette wouldn’t be so incompetent that they can’t even make the guy’s hand motions close to realistic, right? So OBVIOUSLY the guy is showing an immense, traumatizing fear of her, and the cute act by Min Kyung is just a front brought on by her sociopathic tendencies. I mean, his arms are moving like robotic arms with Parkinson’s for fuck’s sake, the guy is terrified because he’s been drugged and held captive by this psychotic bitch for months.
A BROKEN MAN. THAT’S WHAT YOU’RE WITNESSING HERE.
That’s right, what you’re really watching is Kang Min Kyung as Kathy Bates, and guy’s POV is all awkward and fucked up because she’s treating him like he’s James Caan in “Misery“.
“Oppa, do you know what Kim Kwang Soo does to failed idols or idols who threaten to leave him? Oh don’t worry, he doesn’t kill them, he just … skins them so they can never work in the industry again. He called it ‘shaving’.”
“Min Kyung, I don’t know what you think you’re doing, but please don’t…”
*Shaving Sounds*
*Screams*
“Don’t worry, it’s almost over, just missed a spot…”
*Continued Screams*
“Perfect.”
*Mwah*
*Cut To Black & Logo Appears*
Gillette, the best a man can get.

Shit is perfect and can double as a concept for a horror movie.
DAEBAK
Asian Junkie Asian pop. Without discretion.
It’s so brilliant. I watched it over and over. I’ll bet all those netizens did too. “Oh I’m not SURE if I really hate it yet, let me see it two dozen more times…”
Just think of the impact a commercial like this would have squeezed in between all the crazy loud bullshit that usually comes up on TV between programs. So manipulative and crafty. Shaving foam sales are going to go nuts. Fuck, I’m running out, I might go buy some RIGHT NOW…
The first Rated R PG porn
this means youtube can finally show porn
If you’re into pregnant chicks giving birth
My ears are bleeding (and I watched it without sound).
Yeah – the video is creepy.
But this is good shit (you need headphones – preferably good ones – for it to work):

It’s one of those 3D audio recordings where it sounds like you’re in the bathtub with Kang Min Kyung.
my ears felt like a tennis ball in a world tournament with that audio. god, can’t they just equalize the sound distribution with that ?!
on second thought, better find me that porn with a kang min kyung look alike
It’s supposed to go back and forth because she’s moving around you. I think the goal is to create that ‘ASMR effect’:

The video in that article didn’t work for me, but the Kang Min Kyung one that I linked did.
FWIW, the ASMR effect didn’t work for me, it’s annoying to me.
Mppfffff, I feel like she’s breathing on my neck, nice. ^_^
I don’t understand… What was supposed to be “neater”??
OH MY GOD SO CREEPY. The way he kept shoving her down and not saying anything, the way she stares straight at the camera for the longest minute ever… Seriously, this is how you sell razors and shaving cream in Korea?
It’s how they sell everything. Girl/guy stares into the camera for 29 seconds and the last second shows “Buy our water.” lol
lol It’s like he was gonna strangle the shit out of her at the ending.

Close enough.
>Seriously, this is how you sell razors in Korea?
Maybe Gillette’s main target is depressed people who cut their wrists. Anyway I nave to agree with you, this shit is fucking scary, the band looks like the one in Evil Dead.
Worst POV ever, Tina Yuzuki is disappoint.
*nave *hand
Looks to me they’re promoting some man-scaping.
well not even porno girls act as good as Kang Min Kyung does in this video clip she is definitely talented
I thought you were against horror movie like scenarios. Maybe you jumped ship for fanfic writing?
lol
“Misery” is more like a psychological thriller that is disturbing enough to be a horror.
:o
even the room looks like a porn room.
The dead silence when she’s not speaking makes it even more so
ekk…this looks like one of those movies where you know a sex scene is coming up but your watching with your parents.. so you excuse yourself to the kitchen for a few moments…. What a shitty job by whoever directed this…or maybe its her acting.
Is there an “All of the Above” choice?
