New liveries, Korean Air and EL AL

No contrast between the letters, logo, and background blue. All brand identity thrown out the window with generic font. What on earth are they thinking?

Sometimes there just no need to update a classic and timeless livery, like KE, SQ

The El Al one is just fine, I imagine many won't even notice that the livery changed since other than the tail they're so similar.

The Korean one though... Actually if it had flashes of red and the font wasn't so ugly, it would have been decent. Not as good as the old livery of course, but it would be better than what we got. I get that Korean Air's old font was outdated, but they could have gone for something evolutionary like Air France's livery instead of... this.

They both look cheap and low effort.

I don't mind the new EL AL livery, although I will miss the refreshed livery that was introduced with the B787. It was a subtle but pleasant change.

I just know my old graphic design professor is having an aneurysm at the new KAL livery. The pixel pinch plague marches on...

The blue text on blue background is still puzzling me. As these night shots show, they're not good for visibility, and makes nothing "pop out" at a glance. It's like they realized halfway through that they were copying KLM a little too much and had to scramble for a compromise (which ironically took the worst of both liveries IMO).

In fact, why not add the [small darker stripe KLM has on theirs](https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/d/dc/KLM_Boeing_787-9_landing_at_Schiphol_2017_%2826608693739%29.jpg) at that point? Even better, why not *make it red?*
