“Design is a critical component of our TV business and I’m proud that our digital team has carried this priority over to our online environment,” said Havis Kwon, CEO and President of the LG Home Entertainment Company. “LG’s OLED TV has received several important design accolades itself, so we felt it essential that our online promotional material should reflect this commitment to aesthetic excellence.”
