Girls' Generation shares their thoughts on Ace Bed's CF Filming
As Ace Bed latest endorsement models, Girls’ Generation recently released two new CFs featuring members YoonA and Seohyun. The CF featured both YoonA and Seohyun having a difficult time falling asleep until they found the solution for a good sleep on Ace Bed.
On April 16th, Ace Bed updated its official website with a post from Girls’ Generation. The members shared their thoughts on filming the CFs for the brand.
“‘The bed is not a furniture~ Have a good sleep~’
We sang this song over and over again the whole time we were filming, so it’s still stuck in our heads. I think we had a fun and comfortable CF film shoot thanks to the fun CM (commercial music) song and how nicely Lee Sun Gyun sunbaenim treated us.
It felt like a pajama party, because it was a bed CF. The concept itself was about being natural, so the only thing I really remember from the film shoot was playing around and chatting away with the members. Before we knew it, the film shoot was over.
I lied down on the bed to shoot a sleeping scene, and I actually dozed off. This is what ‘The ability to let them sleep deeply even if they take a quick nap’ means.
Since our lifestyle changes so often due to all the schedules we have to cover, we always thought, ‘I’m tired. I should sleep’. Now we realize that it’s not just ‘I should sleep’, but that ‘I should sleep deeply’.
So, we all changed our beds to Ace Bed. What happens if we get prettier after sleeping on Ace Beds?
Have a healthy deep sleep on Ace Beds.
Bed is not a furniture, but a science.”

Kara means, “Sweet Melody” while the hidden meaning behind T-ara represents, “We will wear the music queen’s crown“.
Aside from these groups, there are also the names of girl groups that are obvious and represent how their names actually read.
