Tosca | Decalcomanie | Korea

GM Daewoo's Tosca is provoking consumers to think differently about the brand, focusing on first-time car buyers with a strong sense of individualism.

The ‘Love & Hate’ tagline brings out the contrast of the vehicle’s personality between beauty and power. Rather than demonstrating the functions of the machine, the commercial plans to connect with consumers emotionally.

The creative brief demonstrates the concept of ‘Somewhat liked by everyone’ versus ‘Hated by many, but loved by few’.

The campaign aims to reestablish the car’s position in the Korean market after the fall of General Motors earlier this year.
