Ambient Execution Description
South Korea, a country devoid of oil.
Seoul, a city where one fourth of Koreans live, with one of the world’s highest gasoline consumption. Car usage is increasing. Petroleum costs are rising. Parking spaces are scarce. People are stressed out. Every day, a Seoul driver wanders 500m to find a parking space. In a month, this equals 15km, or 1 liter of gas.
S-OIL, one of the four oil companies in Korea took action.
It is on a mission to save oil. Thus begins the HERE Campaign.
It has set up a HERE balloon for each parking space.
As a car parks in it, the balloon falls. When the car exits, the balloon rises.
Cars can spot these balloons from afar. They can spot open parking spaces without wandering. Finding quick parking means saving oil.
1 easily-spotted parking spot is worth 1 liter of oil saved.
“HERE” Balloons have saved drivers’ gas expenses through a new and interesting method. S-OIL, the oil seller gained the impression of an oil-saving company. Through “HERE” balloons, the public is directly engaged with S-OIL’s identity.
The Ambient Advert titled Here balloon was done by Cheil advertising agency for product: S-OIL (brand: S-OIL) in South Korea. It was released in the May 2012.
