Popular Australian actor Hugh Jackman shows his dance talent in Tokyo Dancing Hotel, a Japanese-themed global advertisement for Lipton Ice Tea.
Didn’t know this but he’s a successful stage actor before making his Hollywood breakthrough with X-Men in 2000. These moves are piece of cake.
Jackman will soon film a new Wolverine movie which is set in Japan, but I think he will shoot most of the scenes in studios and “fake” locations. For example they made this Lipton advertisement in Rio de Janeiro and not Tokyo despite the title.
Trivia: Brazil is home to the largest Japanese population outside Japan. There’s about 1.6 million people of Japanese descent in the country.
[Update 2013] Check out the official trailers for The Wolverine. As expected it’s mostly filmed outside of Japan. Many of the co-stars are Japanese though.

Korean singer Uee from pop group After School is picked as the new model for Chum Churum Cool, a Korean soju (rice wine)…
The commercial is a hot issue in Korea. Personally I think the dance is awkward; wearing hot pants and flashing her pretty legs (or honey thighs as dubbed the Koreans) doesn’t make the whole thing sexy if that’s what they were intending at the first place.
[Update] Check out Uee’s Chum Churum Cool photoshoot.
