In this study, the effect of the anti-smoking advertisement was checked by examining the perceived intensity of the anti-smoking advertisement and the desire of smokers and non-smokers to stop smoking due to the presence of the cigarette in the advertisement. The study was conducted on 56 men living in Daejeon (28 smokers and 28 non-smokers). The measurement tools for the experiment were selected through pre-stimulation, with four anti-smoking advertisements and questionnaires asking for the craving of smoking. According to the results of measuring the level of stimulation between smokers and non-smokers, there was a significant difference in the need for non-smoking areas between strong and weak advertisements. However, whether or not the cigarette in the advertisement was not affected by the need to smoke. This shows that it is effective when the anti-smoking ads are stronger, and suggests that they are more effective as anti-smoking ads when presenting perceived strong ads to smokers.
