South Korea’s largest dairy producer has faced furious backlash after its latest advertisement featured a man secretly filming a group of women — who were then depicted as cows.
In the ad for Seoul Milk, a man is seen walking through the countryside with a camera and hiding in a bush.
The women are then startled and turn into cows when the interloper steps on a twig.
The ad ends with the words “Clean water, organic feed, 100 percent pure Seoul Milk. Organic milk from an organic ranch in the pleasant nature of Cheongyang.”

Why no comment Ben?
I’ve known women who were cows. These women are NOT cows!
I think it’s funny but un-PC. Which makes it A-OK in my book.
“Furious backlash”.
Oh no.
I do not find it creepy.
Got Milk?
Someone notify mooove-on.
Sheesh, the Koreans need to throttle back.
4 . . . 3 . . . . 2 . . . . .
The women were wearing clothing while the cows did not.
I’m offended.
And no, not because they didn’t dress the cows.
Did it sell products?
Korean milk tasted like caned milk.
Does caned milk come from Singapore?
It’s a cute twist on a common folk or fairy tale.
The Fairy and the Woodcutter is one of the most popular of all Korean folktales. Almost all children in Korea grow up reading a version of this love story. https://www.korea.net/NewsFocus/Culture/view?articleId=120797
There once was a poor woodcutter who lived with his mother. One day, he helped a wounded deer escape from hunters. As a show of gratitude, the deer informed the woodcutter of a nearby pond where fairies came down from the heavens to bathe every month. The deer pointed out that the woodcutter would be able to marry one of the fairies by hiding the fairy’s winged clothing—her only means of flight. He could then come to the rescue of the stranded fairy. The only proviso: everything was to be kept secret from his wife until they had at least three children. With these instructions, the woodcutter was successful in taking a fairy as his wife, and they had two children together. Content and happy, the woodcutter now felt comfortable enough to prematurely come clean. He showed his wife the winged clothing. Upon seeing her wings again, the wife could not help but feel a pang of yearning for home. She decides to return to the heavens, taking the children with her.
Sad that wokesters know nothing and wreck everything.
At least they were Holsteins.
