Viewers criticize excessive product placement on 'We Got Married'

Posted by mountainmadman28 pts Sunday, June 17, 2012



MBC's recently returned-from-the-dead program 'We Got Married' has been drawing complaints for what some viewers have labeled as excessive use of product placement in the show.

In the first episode since the reality show made its decision to return to regular programming, the Eunjung - Lee Jang Woo couple traveled to Indonesia with their mothers in tow.

The problem emerged when the couple visited the airline company, where various scenes of the amenities offered in first class were shown in great detail and the manager came out to greet them in person. The couple were also shown exclaiming over a mileage card that had been given to them by the airline.

Although product placement is nothing new in 'We Got Married', this episode seemed to particularly feature them in greater detail, cutting off the flow of the story, viewers opined.
