Execution

Noon Square shopping mall was scheduled to launch in August – the hottest month in Korea. As “Noon” also means snow in Korean, our big idea was to communicate that “The First Snow is Coming to Korea on Aug 28th” We executed this idea in out-of-home media with large posters in subway stations near the shopping mall.We took the idea one “step” further in a cost effective way by placing snow footprints sticker on the ground within the subway station to lead people to our ad.
