The 2024 Marjan advertisement raises a story from the folk tale "Putri Hijau and Tuan Jungkat" from North Sumatra and also concerns environmental issues regarding excessive exploitation of nature. In making the advertisement, Marjan packages folk tales and environmental issues into an advertising concept that contains symbols and meanings in its visual elements.

Therefore, it is necessary to analyze what symbols are contained in the 2024 Marjan advertisement and also the meaning of these symbols.
