Scenarios portrayed include a friends’ rooftop dinner, an expectant mother with her partner and a young man visiting his ailing relative.
Created by DDB Group Hong Kong, the #LittleBigMoments video has been viewed more than a million times on YouTube, and another million elsewhere on social media, since its release last week.
“As a brand, we understand that life is not just one big thing, but the accumulation of a million little things, a million little moments. And in the end, it is these little moments that make life big,” said Randy Lai, chief executive officer of McDonald’s Hong Kong.
The use of pop classics is not an unfamiliar tactic used by DDB’s for McDonald’s in Hong Kong. In 2014, American fast food brand used the Billy Joel song ‘Just the way you are’ to promote its cheaper prices.
In addition to the 60-second TVC, DDB also created three 15 second stories – each focusing a specific McDonald’s product with ‘You Song’ playing in the background.
