How can you tell what the perky teacher in that photo is really teaching her students?
It turns out a Thai publisher accidentally put a Japanese porn star on the cover of a math textbook.
As Rocket News 24 reports, the MuangThai Book Center had distributed over 3,000 copies of its latest math textbook before realizing its mistake.
The cover originally featured a bright young schoolteacher on a cute and colorful cover:

The problem? The teacher on the cover isn't from a generic stock photograph. That's Japanese porn star Mana Aoki, who is known for photoshoots like "Class Flirt," "Oil Nudes," and videos like Costume Play Working Girl. It's a marketing shoot for the latter that provided the textbook photo:

Coconuts Bangkok noted that Twitter user T3Thee was the first to point out the similarity, in a tweet that quickly went viral on Thai Twitter:

The cover has since been revised and replaced. Let's hope Thai students find what's inside the book as exciting as the outside.
