Hilarious 'news blooper' goes viral

An advertisement depicting a news broadcast gone wrong is going viral after it tricked some people into believing it was real.

The ad, made by drink maker Binggrae, appears realistic at first.

A field reporter is giving a report about an alarming amount of micro dust particles in the air. However, her voice cracks awkwardly, apparently due to the dust.

A female anchors attempts to ignore the moment and continue the story. But a voice can be heard scolding the reporter for the mishap. Despite her attempts not to, the anchor laughs, as does her male counterpart.

It’s revealed that the sequence is a ploy. Still, it had some office workers surreptitiously clicking on the video and suppressing their own giggles.
