South Korea’s biggest dairy brand has been forced to apologise over an advert depicting women as cows.
The video by Seoul Milk shows a man secretly filming a group of women in a field, who later turn into cows.
After facing a public backlash, the company removed the promo from YouTube, but it has since gone viral after being re-uploaded by internet users.
Some also compared the man’s behaviour to “molka”, the illegal practice of secretly filming people.
