Read our privacy policy Samsung’s latest advert has been branded as “ridiculous” and “unrealistic” for showing a woman running alone at night with headphones on. Certainly not in a city.” On Twitter, women slammed the advert, over which the woman running narrates: “Sleep at night. Unfortunately we do not own the night, the real world for female runners at night is quite different.” Another tweeted: “The Samsung advert where the woman feels empowered to go for her daily run across London at 2am… tell me your agency is all men without telling me.” A third mused the only woman involved in the making of the advert must have been the actor. “Hey Samsung, how realistic do you think your advert of a woman running at 2am is on a scale of one to are you mad?” they said.
