Earlier I posted about how I'll soon be flying Asiana's business class from Los Angeles to Seoul Incheon, which I'm looking forward to. On that post, reader Claus left the following comment: "Asiana business class, sponsor of one of my most favorite advertisement photos. :)"

It took me about two solid minutes but it's worth it when you figure it out.

This is a pretty bad ad - At least Asiana should make sleeping guy looks comfy.

No one say anything. 😉

I think the greatest laughter comes after looking at it for minutes and minutes and then realizing. I promise you'll figure it out eventually.

Why is he wasting his money in Biz? He can sleep like that in economy.

Also, the woman isn't sitting down. She's standing up in whatever stock photo she was in and has been photoshopped to appear between seats and roughly proportional to the rest of the background. Her trousers aren't ruffled appropriately for someone who's sitting, nor are her legs in a position indicative of sitting. Plus the seat cushion has no indication of weight be on it. This is pretty bad all around. Could only be worse if it was clearly done in MS Paint.

On second thought, I guess she *could* be meant to be standing, but having flow that product, there's really not that much room to be casually standing around and such. I mean, she does look like she's having a great time, though.

It is probably photoshoped, but had it physically happened it would certainly have been great!

Creative Director: "You on the right, you sleep full-flat!"
Guy: "The seat doesn't move..."
CD: "I said: sleep full flat!!!"

And if you look at the seat above the lady, it kind of looks like someone's leg + sock is on the side table sleeping backwards lol. I think they mean it's someone's hand but I also chuckled.

So much photoshopping there. It's impossible to lie like that. Where's the rest of his body?

FYI adblock stops the image showing I think because it's coming from Facebook

I really need to get my head out of the gutter. Before I noticed the seat, I couldn't stop wondering what his right arm was doing...

I thought it was that the side tables look a lot like toilets with flush handles.

I totally missed the "upright seat" thing -- I thought it was because the side tables look like toilets 😀

I've been so desperate to sleep in economy before, that I've considered that same position. 🙂

Here's another weird one from their First Class product:

It looks as if the flight attendant is some kind of jack-in-the-box popping up from inside the closed F Suite....

I thought it was because there appear to be toilets at the seats? Aren't those toilets?
