KUALA LUMPUR, 24 SEPTEMBER 2024 – Jim Beam, the world’s No.1 bourbon, is thrilled to launch its latest Asia brand campaign in Malaysia, celebrating the power of human connection and the joy of shared experiences. The campaign, which spans seven key markets across Asia – including South Korea, Japan, China, Taiwan, Thailand, Vietnam, and Malaysia – proudly features the fearless K-pop sensation LE SSERAFIM as the face of this iconic brand.
In Malaysia, Jim Beam’s campaign delves into the essence of togetherness, tapping into its inclusive roots. Whether it’s trying something new or embracing the unusual, experiences that might feel awkward when done alone become powerful and empowering when shared with the right people. This campaign seeks to nurture a spirit of solidarity, helping people find their tribe and feel the undeniable power that comes from being together.
“Jim Beam has always been about connecting people,” says Yoshihiro Morita, Senior Marketing Director APAC, James B Beam Brand House. “We’re reigniting the spark of human connection because we believe that Jim Beam plays a pivotal role in bringing people together. People who enjoy connecting with others drink Jim Beam!
LE SSERAFIM, an anagram of ‘I’m Fearless,’ perfectly embodies Jim Beam’s bold and carefree spirit. Since their debut in May 2022, the group has captivated audiences worldwide with their confident chart-toppers and have earned an impressive array of accolades, including multiple wins at the Melon Music Awards, Golden Disc Awards, and Seoul Music Awards, as well as international honors from the MTV Europe Music Awards and the Billboard Music Awards.
As part of the Jim Beam campaign in Asia, LE SSERAFIM will be featured in a series of digital videos that showcase the group grooving, recording fun reels, exploring new drink recipes, and expressing their inner fashionistas together. These videos, curated to reflect the latest social media trends, encourage Malaysians to embrace who they are and explore new experiences with their friends and community.
Each member of LE SSERAFIM is unique, but together they become greater than the sum of their parts, embodying Jim Beam’s belief that coming together is powerful and that people can energize each other.
