K-pop star Seungri has become a model for the online dating app Tinder in Korea, YG Entertainment announced Thursday.

In one of the ads, Seungri is dressed in a suit and holds a champagne glass. In another, he is dressed casually with a smartphone in his hand.

Friends of many nationalities that I meet through tours abroad and business use Tinder a lot,” said Seungri in a press release. “It’s a good fit for me, as I enjoy meeting new people,” he said on modeling for the app.

Larger versions of Seungri’s Tinder ads will be displayed in Gangnam and Suseo stations, among other locations, beginning Thursday.

The Tinder ad marks Seungri’s first solo endorsement since he debuted with the group Big Bang in 2006.

Tinder is a location-based social mobile app that allows people in nearby areas to meet and form relationships.



Do you use Tinder, Omona?

I do and I don't have a problem with the app, I'm just so bad at meeting new people so I just end up ghosting half the people I've matched with because ?? idk I wish I was a social butterfly or an extrovert, it'd make my life so much easier.

Legit shocked at how on brand it is and the fact that they let him promote the fact that he hooks up with strangers off the internet as a money making venture

Ofc he'd promote tinder.

Wait, did I miss something that Seungri did?

I tried it when I moved back to the suburbs of my major city and boy was it slim pickings. I started using Hinge a week ago and it’s a lot more fun and better options LOL. I’ve already got one date tonight and a possible one Saturday night too!

Same!

I was shocked to read some of the comments, I've been on omona maybe 3 years and I've not seen about comments like the first few. ( I didn't look further because it was nasty).

it only got worse tbh i need eye bleach

this is pretty much par for the course when it comes to old ontd and omona. I see a lot of familiar faces and usernames in there and I bet their tones would be changed now. But that's what six years does, thank God.

From: [identity profile] mortkero.livejournal.com
I guess I should be happy that the tone has changed!

tbh I avoided omona and ontd for a good chunk of years a while back because they were so toxic. (yousoundfat.mp3)

I only started lurking and posting more when most members grew up and matured into functioning brains, lol.

It's not only for lesbians but OKCupid has a fair number of gays on it, you can filter your preferences.

Tinder marketing tram deserves an award, A+ choice

I download tinder every once in a while but only to check out the dudes in my area.

It is really smart marketing on their part. Can you imagine how many upgrades certain types of K-pop fans would buy if they find out they can find idols on there?

Never used Tinder. Thought about it briefly when I was in Korea, but couldn't be bothered. I just watched my friend group use it and listened to them drag people. The people pool in our area wasn't...great.

The crotch region in that second pic is unfortunate. IDK why, but whenever pants fits like that, it really creeps me out.

Very on-brand.
