The Campaign

One of the biggest motivations for girls to lose weight could be “ikemen” (hot guy). By mixing “ikemen” (girls’ favorite), “seafood” (healthy food), and “anime” (popular among Hongkongese), we created new design icons called “Handsome Mermen.”

Creative Execution

The Handsome Mermen appeared on various media, including TVC, bumper ads and outdoor advertisement.

Indication of how successful the outcome was in the market

With the help of Handsome Mermen, we succeeded in establishing the impression that no matter how much you eat, the new Cup Noodles will not make you gain weight. This campaign created buzz on the Internet.
