Think your dance moves could win you free Coke? These guys did…

In yet another marketing win from the guys over in Coke, their latest vending machine gives you the chance to win a few free bottles, but only if you’ve got the right dance moves.

You may remember the 007 themed Coke advert we brought you recently that made people run around a train station as if they were James Bond in order to win exclusive ‘Skyfall’ tickets? Well, Coke’s South Korean marketing department decided it would be a cool idea to slap a Microsoft Kinect onto one of their vending machines and to make people dance for free Coke.

The vending machine challenges passers-by to emulate the dance moves performed by the pop band 2PM – we take it they’re the South Korean version of One Direction or 1D or 1UP… or whatever the hell they’re calling themselves these days.

It’s a cool idea but we have a feeling it wouldn’t work so well over here in Ireland, seeing as we don’t have a dance move between us. Now, if only we could get our hands on the extended uncut footage of the girl in red at 1.03 seconds.
