Summary:Advertising is essential in persuading, strengthening, and reminding the product of the public. Advertising is a representation of a product. From the modern communication perspective, advertising is used to make up the product's image. Recently, advertisements have appeared not only in conventional media but also in new media.

This creates a hyper-reality that goes beyond the function of the ad itself. This study seeks to reveal Syahrini's Shopee marketplace advertisement on Youtube. The advertisement's content is examined critically and analyzed using Pierce's triangle of meaning: object, interpretant, and representamen. The research found that hyper-reality simulacra were created as a compulsive shopping narrative. This occurs due to unpleasant events or negative feelings caused by addiction, depression, and boredom. However, the public does not know this.
