The big red and white machine, writing Hug Me in their signature font, is currently located at the National University of Singapore. Its getting a lot of buzz!

"Whether you were hugging the machine or experiencing the event online, our goal was the same - to put a smile on your face and share that emotional connection," says the Coca-Cola Company spokesman.

There is something special about watching people hug a giant red machine in order to get a free soda. But it's working, everyone is smiling!

Coca Cola says they plan on putting more "Hug Me" machines out this year.
