Vampires may be the trend right now, but I think they don’t often look so chic. Here’s sexy siren Kim Hye-soo (Style) in vampire makeup for an “art marketing” campaign for Fissler Korea.
The goal is to take an artistic view to their advertising, using the skills of photographer Kang Young-ho and top makeup artist Jung Saem-mool. Apparently, Kim Hye-soo got the idea from Kang’s photo exhibit, which is currently on display at Sungkok Museum.
In addition to being Fissler’s brand model (the company sells cookware), Kim Hye-soo acted as art director for her shoot. Regardless of what they’re selling, I think the photos are pretty striking. The vampire concept is popular in a teen-goth sort of way, but I like seeing it done differently, if only for a change from the usual (as Thirst‘s lead actors did for their Vogue photo shoot earlier this year).

wow. I love the contacts, over all i like the concept. He looks like a doll
Vampires=/=cookware. But it’s very interesting.
Very. Unique, beautiful, odd.
wait….isn’t that a guy?!
She’s a vampire . . . . with edge!! (Sorry, Style drama drinking meme. Bottoms up!)
Beautiful..
not feeling the vampire vibe…
more like something out of Lord of the Rings
it’s odd to see chic vampires holding cookware… LOL
but nice pictures!!
interesting way to sell a pan!
“even vampire uses it!”
Wow. I would totally watch a movie about vampires if vampires looked that way. ^^ The concept is refreshing.
she looks stunning !!!
Domesticated Vampress.
it’s like gollum meets the snow witch from the chronicles of narnia
-i don’t see vampire-
The pictures look great I thought they were for a magazine shoot. She looks great but I wouldn’t remember that this is for cookware though.
VAMPIRE CREATIVITY: Marketing term for a commercial that is so creative and
entertaining that people remember the ad, but not the product being sold. It essentially bites itself.
How ironic that they’re using a vampire theme.
i see it as more of a snow queen concept. it’s lovely. the first picture is by far the best. i would have liked to see the last two pics against a white background
wow…looking at the pics…I notice that it makes a huge difference what eye color you have
with black eyes, her face looks very mundane
but with white eyes, it looks otherwordly
I’m going to get me some white contacts
Very intriguing. I admit I was a bit thrown off seeing her holding the pot though. I agree, vampire + cookware= Huh? Lol. Love the contacts though.
AMAZING!! These pictures are breathtaking.
Oooh, it seem so interesting….and….ffreaakkyy like that!
I love seeing Kim Hye-Soo is covering these makeup for being a vampire and enjoy to do during the photo shoot, how fantastic! (beams) Very stunning! Ooh, it’s same thing as the color contract, too!
Keep it up! (winks)
I laughed at the idea. I really shouldnt have, but I did.
I like Fissler products…. not loving the vampire concept though… and how are they related?
I prefer my vamp. to be sparkling than… white washed
i feel the white makeup would look a lot better on someone with sharper/more defined features…..
and all i can think about while looking at these is how hard it must’ve been to wash all that makeup off…. *_*
I agree that she looks more like a snow queen or some elfy being. Very mystical.
Love it… but really…
cookware?
In the pictures she’s holding a (pan?) it really sticks out…
I love the first picture. It’s absolutely breathtaking!
Insanely beautiful.
ethereal….
Bride with White Hair has gone domestic!
this sexy vamp has got to be the long lost couzin of Edward Cullen..
that was frightening
oohhh… nice. I like the FIRST AND FOURTH shots tha best!
But I have to laugh at how far-off the theme is from the brand (cook wares!) they are advertising, made me think, ” POTS AND PANS!!! ssooo…the vampire’s finally gonna try and eat something cooked?!”
They’re like… vampire-fairies, what with the branchy stuff and no fangs.
Anyway, really cool.
NO VAMPIRE at all.. this is like a snow queen or some other mystical creature. Definitely not vampire. Why am I insist so? because I’m one!
This almost funny:-)
I think the concept fails in 2 aspects:
Vampire concept- Where’s the red?The first thing that comes to mind while thinking of vamps is blood and fangs.Unless they’re going in for a frozen vampire look.:-D
Ad concept- For cookware?Of all the things?:-D I was too mesmerized by the images to even notice the pans.:-)
As a stand alone photo shoot I think it’s awesome.The photos are stunning.I wish they had put in more effort into the concept though.
omg these are some amazing photos….i wish it wasn’t an ad campaign..hehehe..
wow!! stunning is all i cam say!
O_O
I agree with some others that this isn’t really “vampire”…You could just as easily say, she’s a fairy…She’s an elf…She’s collaborated with Lee Jun-ki. Vampire? Not so much.
Still, those pictures are awesome. Independent of a missed concept, or an inappropriate product for the missed concept, they’re really cool.
Vampires, Cooking. Bahaha. Korea, <333.
Wow I love her contacts!!
The photoshoot was awesome!!! I love her!!
Kim Hye Soo can pull of anything ^_^…I just love this gal!
Ignore the first post. I forgot the “s” in she T_T…. sorry
is that one…in blackface…?
Have to agree with most, great photos. Why do vampires need to cook anything at all? Truly hilarious, but neat photos nonetheless.
agree @ number 6, there’s no a vampire vibes at all but more of Lord of the Rings.
but the outcome with ‘that’ cookware is still superb! lol
More like she’s ready to do a remake of the American movie “Powder” (instead) than deem apparent in this vampire or “Twilight” fever.
Vampire?? I was thinking along more the line of snow queen when i first saw it!
She doens’t look like a vampire to me more of a ………….. i don’t know. a mythical creature? or a monster god?
i like this photo.
veryyyyyyyyyy intresting!!!
