the rundown

The two Korean rappers, Dok2 and The QUIETT, in the campaign, tell stories about the districts, Hong Dae and Itaewon where they spend their youth. Some well known clubs and party houses that represent a big part of the youth culture in Korea are located in these districts. Smirnoff runs this YT trueview campaign to maximize viral impact and to increase awareness.
