Sometimes you don't know whether to envy peoples optimism or just be astonished by it. How did the people behind this music video for the Korean singer Ivy think that they would get away with such an obvious copy of a scene from Square Enix' Advent Children? Footage from the movie is in the lower right corner.
It has now been banned from being aired on TV by a South Korean court according to Japan Probe. But it's still on YouTube of course, where a lot of people like me who have never even heard about Ivy are checking it out to see the resemblance. The makers of this video are probably not incredibly optimistic after all, but incredibly smart.
