Korean Air ad on FT
I took a long look at the Korean Air ad on Flyertalk today and have to admit to being confused. It looks like the woman is holding something in her mouth, but what? Is she also supposed to be sleeping, thus the wraparounds?

I got it on this page too - I think they pick ads based on page content. Looks like it's an envelope of some sort - maybe she's sealing a card with a kiss?

FT Korean Air Adverts-What the Hell Are We Looking At?
I can't be the only one that keeps seeing these "flash" animated ads on FT on the side of the screen here on FT, in particular the one from Korean Arlines:
From departure to arrival-showing a envelope being held in a pair of women's lips, then switching to the front outer view of a Korean Air 747 with the phrase "The world is my destination."
What in the hell are we looking at here? What's the significance?
For an example go to: http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/korean-air-skypass-621/

It looks like we can see the mouth of one of the Aliens from the Aliens movie about to devour a sleeping woman.

They appear to be similar to those perfume-ad-looking TV commercials for Korean Air that have been running in the US for the better part of a year now. I think there was a thread about the TV commercials a while back; my recollection was that people were mystified by those, as well.
