Korean Pads.

Pad commercials in Korea are weird.

1) A girl bumps into another girl. Girl #1 rubs her arm and looks off into the distance. The scene then cuts to a pad.
- So does that mean that whenever I bump into a girl I should be getting a free pad? Or do I owe her one? Or should i just be thinking about pads?

2) A group of girls are painting a room, having a good time laughing. Then we see a table with a bag of pads on it. Then back to the group of girls with 3:15 over them.
- 3:15 that's what time they all get their period? They can wear the pad for 3 hours and 15 minutes. I don't know about the 3:15? Any guesses?

3) A little wooden spoon is sprinkling what seems like green tea over some flat papery surface and then they dissolve. Cool effect right? This happens many times. Apparently the green tea has been absorbed into a pad.
- I don't know about you, but I'm not sure of green tea is suppose to be down there.

okay, so here in the states...they have a commercial showing girls in a village in africa with a v.o. introducing us to a specific girl who has to skip school whenever she has her period bc they don't have enough pads and always (the company) sends a pack of pads whenever you purchase one in the states...or something like that.

now, i know it's not right...but my first thought was "that lucky bitch...she gets to skip school when she has her period."
