Yonsei University’s Spontaneous Butt Campaign for Seolhyun and Suzy Causes Controversy

Paul Lee, April 7, 2016, 10:17 a.m.

 

At a smoking area inside the campus grounds of Yonsei University, a brand new voting system has been created. Two life sized posters have been erected with trash cans in front of each one, as well as a trash can in the middle of the two. One of the photos features miss A’s Suzy, while the other shows AOA member Seolhyun. The trash cans have signs taped on them that read, “I Like Suzy†or “I Like Seolhyunâ€, while the middle one simply states “Trash here…â€

Smokers are asked to cast their votes with their cigarette butts, and decide between the two stars. The campaign states that the posters of the beautiful idols are there to draw in the smokers crowd and encourage them to place their butts in a bin, instead of littering.

The campaign was inspired by the London cigarette anti-littering campaign which used soccer/football stars Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi’s names, and having a cigarette disposal bin which allowed smokers to vote for their favorite player.

 

It seems that Seolhyun and Suzy’s campaign was not as well received, as many netizens stated that the campaign objectified the two women, and that it was disrespectful and inhuman to the two celebrities to have their likeness used in such a way.

Student criticism flared soon after the photo boards were installed. Some in the school’s web community said: “Why do those female stars have to become sexualized just for collecting cigarette butts?†Others said it was just for fun.

 

A student identified as Hwang, who insisted he set up the boards, said he did it as part of project for a subject he is taking.

 

“I used the stars’ photo boards for attracting smokers to smoke in the smoking area,†he said on the university’s official Facebook page Thursday. “It is a short-term project, so I need to attract students’ attention quickly.â€

What is your opinion about this campaign?

Ronaldo is a better player than Messi.....??? Anyways....

Yes, he is. As evidenced by the indisputable cigarette butts in his favor. Thanks for playing.

In a smoking area at Yonsei University, body sized posters of two idol stars stand with trashcans placed in front of them. On the trashcan in front of Seolhyun, it says "I like Seolhyun⤠", while the other one in front of Suzy has the words "I like Suzyâ¤" on it, and the one in the middle is labeled, "Trash here..."Smokers are to cast votes with their cigarette butts, and choose between the two stars. The campaign claims that the posters of beautiful idols are going to attract smokers' attention, and they are most likely to approach and throw their cigarette butts away in the trashcans located in front of them.This campaign originated from the Christiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi cigarette campaign in London. However, several viewers claim that this campaign applied to Suzy and Seolhyun is disturbing and unpleasant. Netizens wrote, "It is very disturbing to see two females get compared by their physical qualities, and get cigarette butts thrown to them", "I understand it's for a good cause, but it doesn't seem right to vote based on the two celebrities looks", "Do they think those two are their toys or something? It's Disrespectful", and more.Do you think this campaign is a smart idea or an unpleasant disturbance?

Female sexual objectification is the only reason Seolhyun has an ounce of fame. You don't think there's a reason all her CF's involve her ass sticking out or skin tight clothing...? Her being objectified is only the product of how she promotes herself

So because she has a sexy image she deserves to be disrespected like that? I thought I was reading a Knetz comment, congrats!

....Suzy's cutout was defaced by a guy, so by your logic Suzy was asking for it since Miss A do sexy concepts & wear revealing clothes on stage?
