Tired of having to choose one good thing over another? Coca-Cola Zero hears you loud and clear, delivering a new spot that shows why “and” is always better than “or.” The commercial stars Asian American comedian Ken Jeong who prefers the notion of “and” — as in Real Coke Taste and Zero Calories — over “or.” Facing a choice between two different movie genres, Jeong is suddenly inspired by his can of Coke Zero. Leaping into action, he performs his own quirky rendition of the song “War (What Is It Good For?).” By throwing down original dance moves and substituting the word “or” for “war,” Jeong lets passersby know that with Coke Zero, you can Enjoy Everything.
Ken Jeong, best known as Mr. Chow from “The Hangover” films and Señor Chang from “Community,” makes it clear that he’s not willing to compromise — he’s looking for romance and action, or as he says, “romaction.” He wants his love story combined with the alien invasion, and won’t settle for choosing one over the other — just like Coke Zero drinkers.
