Having experienced the international art fair as the Global Partner of Frieze LA, Frieze New York and Frieze London, LG OLED is now celebrating its starring role as Headline Partner of Frieze Seoul 2023 (September 6-9) with a special Whanki Foundation collaboration. As part of this partnership, LG is presenting “We Meet Again in Seoul” which features a curated selection of works by master of Korean abstract art, Kim Whanki.

Among them are Where, in What Form, Shall We Meet Again and 25-III-69 #46 from his final influential years in New York, which both exemplify the unique “dotstyle” he is revered for pioneering. The former, his most iconic painting, uses an ingenious shading method which blends oil paint with turpentine to fill in the dots, resulting in their absorption into the fabric. This technique heightens the depth and evocative emotions of the piece, enabling audiences to feel fully immersed in the intricate nuances of every emotion and profound layer.

This collaboration, featuring artworks reimagined through digital expression, positions LG OLED TV as the optimal digital canvas for artists by unlocking their full creative potential. Je Baak exclaimed how the “LG OLED TV’s self-lit nature enables the ultimate expression of colors with light, faithfully portraying every brushstroke of the original artwork,” while Jason Kim believes “LG OLED’s perfect black lets artists express the original works in flawless colors.”

“With Borealis, I try to recreate a natural phenomenon, the Northern lights, in places where it shouldn’t be,” said Dan Acher. “I’m really happy to be able to present it here in Seoul with the help of LG OLED, as they also seek to create unique spaces where interactions and conversations can flourish. My desire is for people to pause so they can connect with themselves, and explore the connection we have with nature and one another to transcend boundaries.”

Joint Venture Adds 4th Production Facility to Support
Continued Growth in EV Market

Preview image of new LG Magna e-Powertrain facility

MUNICH, Sep. 4, 2023 – LG Magna e-Powertrain, the Joint Venture (JV) between LG Electronics (LG) and Magna (Magna) formed in 2021, announced at IAA Mobility 2023 that it is expanding its footprint with a new facility in Miskolc, Hungary. The facility will be in Miskolc’s industrial area which features well-developed infrastructure and is strategically located near OEM customers and other Magna facilities throughout the region. The company has also received strong support from both the Hungarian government and local authorities.

Scheduled for completion in 2025, the new facility will start production with e-motors and plans to offer a suite of electrified powertrain solutions in the future, including inverters and on-board chargers for the growing EV market.

The 284,000-square foot facility will be LG Magna e-Powertrain’s first production operations in Europe and, at initial start of production in 2026, the company expects to create roughly 200 new jobs.

“Adding the new Hungary facility marks another milestone for the JV in executing its growth plan,” said Diba Ilunga, president of Magna powertrain. “With this new capacity – the JV’s first in Europe – LG Magna e-Powertrain is well positioned to keep pace with customer demands and increases in global EV production.”

“Our new facility is a testament to the remarkable growth of LG Magna e-Powertrain, thanks to our strong partnership,” said Eun Seok-hyun, president of LG Vehicle component Solutions (VS) Company. “The new facility aims to meet the demands of European automakers, demonstrating our commitment to delivering innovative solutions to our customers.”

As the industry shifts toward vehicle electrification, the JV offers automakers a scalable portfolio including complete component solutions that enable electrification and functionality.

“This new facility seeks to amplify the growth of LG Magna e-Powertrain in the European market,” said Cheong Won-suk, chief executive officer of LG Magna e-Powertrain. “Along with the facilities in Mexico, China and South Korea, the facility in Hungary will be critical as the company accelerates its position as a go-to mobility solutions partner in the fast-growing global EV market.”

The joint venture combines Magna’s expertise in electric powertrain systems and operational excellence, with LG’s capabilities in component development for e-motors, inverters and on-board chargers. The collaboration in design, engineering and manufacturing happening within LG Magna e-Powertrain allows both companies to capitalize on market trends and address customer needs with innovative solutions.

LG CEO Presents Vision of Customer Experiences for Future Mobility at IAA Mobility 2023

As a Smart Life Solutions Company, LG Showcases Differentiated Mobility
Experiences Rooted in Rich Understanding of Customers at Major Mobility Show

MUNICH, Sep. 4, 2023 — LG Electronics (LG) today held its first-ever press conference at IAA MOBILITY, one of the world’s largest annual mobility sector events. Speaking on the Main Stage (Hall A1) of the Messe München exhibition center, LG CEO William Cho shared the company’s perspective on the future of the mobility industry and presented its vision for driving important changes across the entire mobility ecosystem – a goal referenced by LG’s press conference theme: “Taking Life’s Good on the Road.”

In July this year, LG announced its vision to become a “smart life solution company” with the aim of connecting and expanding the customer experience to all areas of people’s lives. The company followed this up by unveiling ThinQ UP 2.0, a groundbreaking innovation that transforms home appliances into ultra-connected lifestyle solutions. Today, the company introduced its unique and inspiring vision for the future mobility customer experience.

With the automotive industry rapidly shifting toward electrification and autonomous driving, LG has an incredible opportunity to create new customer value in the field of mobility. The car will soon be more than just a means of transportation and, instead, a space offering expanded and differentiated customer experiences.

“LG spent close to 70 years in the consumer-facing business. Throughout this time, we have gained a rich understanding of global customers and their living spaces by endlessly discovering new insights and trends. This eventually turned into various innovations in the customer electronics industry,” said CEO William Cho. “With our extensive knowledge and experience in this area, we are excited to present our new take on mobility.”

The insight and expertise behind LG’s customer experience driven products and services have led to the rapid growth of LG’s Vehicle component Solutions (VS) Company. By continuously investing in the VS Company over the course of the past decade, LG has successfully expanded its business into the automotive component and solutions market.

According to market research firm Strategy Analytics, it is estimated that LG accounted for the largest share of the global vehicle telematics market last year, with 23.3 percent. And, since 2021, the company has held a double-digit share of the audio, video and navigation (AVN) segment. These results can be attributed to the recognition and trust the VS Company has earned from major automakers for its differentiated products and services.

Alpha-able: Future Mobility Experience Theme Centered on Customer Experience
LG recently conducted an experiment where it created an environment designed to simulate the interior of an actual autonomous vehicle. Its findings suggested that most people perceive the autonomous vehicle as an exclusive and private space giving them the complete freedom to do what they want, such as play, work and spend some time alone. In-depth surveys show that drivers today hold similar views of their vehicles and the time they spend in them, with 72 percent agreeing that car travel is primarily a time to relax by oneself, and 43 percent calling the vehicle cabin a meaningful personal space.

Based on these customer insights, LG is redefining the car as a “personalized digital cave” and has developed three customer experience themes – Transformable, Explorable and Relaxable – to help it realize its future mobility vision. Collectively, the themes are known as Alpha-able, the company’s interpretation of making anything possible.

Transformable Experience: An Environment that Adjusts to Users’ Needs
LG believes that the space inside a vehicle should be able to physically transform to suit different situations or purposes; turning into a restaurant to dine, an office to work in or even a movie theatre-on-wheels. To deliver the Transformable experience, the in-vehicle space will become more flexible, offering unique experiences that meet and exceed the expectations of passengers. This concept will be brought to life through LG’s innovative display solutions, including transparent, flexible and rollable displays in a variety of form factors, and through its unrivaled home appliance technologies.

Explorable Experience: Reinventing the In-Vehicle Space with Content
LG believes that the car of the future should be able to understand the unique context of each journey, factoring in travel destination, travel duration and other variables to realize a smarter journey complete with tailored content recommendations, and more. LG is confident that the combination of advanced artificial intelligence (AI) and eXtended Reality (XR) technology will help it to unlock Explorable experiences sooner, rather than later.

The company’s sophisticated AI will elevate the mobility experience to new heights, enabling interactive, in-vehicle voice assistants that take trip duration and destination into account when recommending content to passengers – providing relevant options that can be enjoyed within the estimated travel time. What’s more, with augmented reality (AR) technology and windshields incorporating LG’s transparent OLED display, passengers can transport themselves from their current location to an entirely different city, or completely transform the look of the vehicle interior.

Relaxable Experience: Presenting More Comfort
Finally, the Relaxable experience will leverage LG’s advanced technology and connected services to help customers unwind and treat themselves to some ‘me time.’ They can enjoy a beautiful virtual garden and take in fresh air in a busy city, a heated massage in their seat while listening to soothing music or an AI counseling session to help them unpack their day. These soothing mobility experiences are being made possible by LG’s extensive know-how in home appliances, displays, digital health and other customer-related business areas.

The three experience themes that make up ‘Alpha-able’ are the pillars of LG’s future mobility customer experience. Setting LG apart from its competitors, the experiences aligned under each theme will be realized through the company’s innovative customer-centric technologies, services and content.

Three Key Axes of the EV Business in the SDV Era
The mobility industry is currently accelerating toward the era of the software-defined vehicle (SDV). Highly sophisticated electronic devices, SDVs will present new customer experiences in supremely adaptable moving spaces that go far beyond anything that exists now. In preparation for this fast-approaching era, LG is developing customer-specific designs to facilitate differentiated customer experiences in the future mobility environment.

LG’s mobility business centers on three major axes: in-vehicle infotainment systems produced by the VS Company; electric powertrain systems developed by LG Magna e-Powertrain (LG Magna), a joint venture between LG and Magna International; and vehicle lighting systems developed by LG’s subsidiary, ZKW Group. With its various business arms, LG has considerable strength in the core technologies that will define future mobility.

Infotainment simultaneously provides passengers with driving-related information and entertainment options. Utilizing several of its advanced technologies – telematics systems capable of high-speed, high-volume data transmission, digital interfaces such as the Digital Cockpit, and big data and cloud solutions that can analyze vehicle-generated data points – LG will provide comprehensive mobility solutions to meet the evolving needs of the SDV era and allow customers to enjoy optimized mobility experiences.

To enhance the performance of its e-Powertrain for electric vehicles (EVs) and expand product availability, LG Magna is planning to build a new production facility in Miskolac, Hungary. Covering 26,400 square meters, the facility will be LG Magna’s first manufacturing operation in Europe, and is expected to help increase LG’s presence in the European automobile market.

Expanding Vision for Mobility Through EV Charging Solutions
The EV charging solution business is expected to strengthen LG’s future mobility ecosystem. As part of its strategy to deliver optimal mobility experiences encompassing both vehicle and non-vehicle areas, LG last year acquired HiEV Charger, which possesses core EV charger technology. Synergy is also expected with the battery business within the LG Group, which is projected to grow rapidly in the years ahead.

To meet increasing demand in the future mobility sector, HiEV Charger has unveiled four types of EV chargers that address the weaknesses of existing solutions, reflecting customers’ feedback and emerging needs. The new products boast enhanced convenience through the application of LED displays that offer status notifications and intuitive touch control. The new chargers are also equipped with a wide range of safety-boosting features, such as water- and dust-resistance and electrical and thermal protection during the charging process, and provide easy management via connector lock detection and remote updates.

LG aims to expand its EV charging business, harnessing its capabilities in manufacturing, quality control, after-sales service and supply chain management to enhance customers’ charging experience.

“We strongly believe future mobility should focus on the mission to deliver another level of customer experience. LG, with innovative mobility solutions, is more than committed to this important mission,” concluded CEO Cho. “As we are endeavoring to unlock the future of mobility, we invite all industry leaders to join us in this exciting and important journey.”

LG Presents Vision for a Sustainable Future With Energy-Efficient Technologies at IFA 2023

Company Shows How It Is Responding to Environmental Regulations,
Highlights Latest Core Technologies and Heat Pump Solutions

LG personnel presenting vision for a sustainable future with energy-efficient technologies at IFA 2023

BERLIN, Sep. 1, 2023 — LG Electronics (LG) introduced its newest energy-efficient technologies and products to reaffirm its commitment to realizing a sustainable future, hosting media at a tech briefing session at IFA 2023.

Themed “How to Respond to Climate Change – LG Core-Techs for Sustainability,” the tech briefing highlighted the importance of electrification; one of LG’s key ‘insights on trends’ centering on the use of advanced core technologies to enhance energy efficiency. During the session, Peter Verkempynck, senior vice president of LG Air Solutions Europe B2B Sales, presented the cornerstone of LG’s electrification strategy – the advancement of LG heat pump technology.

Because it has the capability to design and manufacture its own core technologies and component solutions, LG is able to deliver appliances offering unparalleled performance and reliability. The company’s ‘in-house’ development and manufacturing strategy is actively driving advancements in fundamental components, including the compressors and motors used in LG heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) systems.

One of the outstanding heat pump solutions presented at the tech briefing, the LG Therma V™ R290 Monobloc Air-to-Water Heat Pump (AWHP) provides powerful heating to help create a warm, comfortable indoor environment. The cutting-edge AWHP is equipped with an array of efficiency-boosting LG technologies and utilizes R290 refrigerant, which has a Global Warming Potential (GWP) of only three. The solution also ensures convenient maintenance with a remote support feature that enables quick software updates and the easy application of installer settings.

The heat pump technology applied to the Therma V R290 Monobloc can also be found in a variety of LG’s efficient home appliances, including its heat pump dryers and washer-dryer model. Employing two cylinders that work simultaneously to compress the refrigerant, the LG DUAL Inverter Heat Pump™ dryer achieves faster drying times and provides a better performance than a conventional dryer. Meanwhile, the recently unveiled LG SIGNATURE second-generation washer-dryer features the company’s own inverter heat pump drying module, which boosts energy efficiency, improves drying results and reduces fabric damage.

Moreover, LG’s own smart home platform, LG ThinQ™, lets users seamlessly connect all of their household appliances for a smarter, more convenient user experience.

With its LG Magna e-Powertrain venture, LG has been developing state-of-the-art integrated drive systems for electric vehicles (EVs) since 2021.

Meanwhile, the company reinforced its capabilities in vehicle lighting systems through the 2018 acquisition of ZKW Group, and bolstered its auto cybersecurity expertise by acquiring innovative Israeli startup, Cybellum, in 2021.

A Look to the Future

The global vehicle industry is making significant strides in transitioning from traditional internal-combustion engines to more eco-friendly mobility solutions, chiefly EVs and autonomous driving technologies.

In this fast-evolving environment, LG is leveraging its technological capabilities and years of consumer electronics experience to offer differentiated mobility experiences. The company is redefining the very nature of mobility and paving the way to a new era of innovation, convenience and safety.

LG to Enable Cross-Brand Connectivity Through LG ThinQ Smart Home Platform

Delivering the First Commercial Implementation of HCA Specification 1.0,
Company Expands Smart Home Ecosystem Through Partnerships With Other Brands

Logo of LG Electronics

SEOUL, Aug. 29, 2023 — LG Electronics (LG) is set to present the first commercial implementation of the Home Connectivity Alliance’s HCA Specification 1.0, enabling cross-brand appliance connectivity through the LG ThinQ™ smart home platform. By the end of this year, consumers will be able to control appliances from diverse brands, such as Samsung and Vestel, with the intuitive-to-use ThinQ app, providing seamless interconnectivity and a smarter, more convenient home.

With a firm commitment to customer experience innovation, LG has joined with other brands to bring the elegant simplicity of cross-brand compatibility to major markets worldwide, including South Korea, the United States and Europe. The partnership will initially cover major appliance product categories, such as washing machines, dryers and dishwashers, and will gradually be expanded to other types of appliances in the future.

The widespread adoption of HCA Specification 1.0 to development makes it possible to monitor and control various brands’ home appliances and air solutions using a single application. With the ThinQ app, users just have to register their compatible products, and then they’re ready to enjoy the ease and time-saving freedom of one-stop device management. Those with an LG washing machine and a Samsung dishwasher in the home, for example, will no longer have to switch between each manufacturer’s app to set their preferred wash cycle and cleaning settings.

The arrival of true cross-brand interconnectivity is the realization of the HCA’s vision for a seamlessly unified smart home experience. Founded in January 2022 and comprising a number of smart home solutions manufacturers, the HCA aims to provide cloud-based interoperability between the smart home platforms of its member companies. As a board member of the alliance, LG has been working closely with other appliance makers, including Samsung and Vestel, to drive the adoption of HCA Specification 1.0, with the ultimate goal of enhancing user convenience.

Committed to expanding the smart home ecosystem, LG has also actively supported the work of the Connectivity Standards Alliance (CSA), a global organization dedicated to developing open communication protocols for smart home devices. LG contributed to the development and standardization of the Matter protocol, an Internet Protocol-based home IoT communications standard led by the CSA.

“LG ThinQ enables a seamlessly interconnected home appliance ecosystem that will provide new smart home experiences to customers around the globe,” said Jung Ki-hyun, executive vice president and head of platform business center. “LG will continue to expand compatibility between ThinQ and other HCA members’ smart home platforms.”

SEOUL, Aug. 28, 2023 — LG Electronics (LG) is presenting an extensive lineup of home appliances offering A-grade (and above) energy efficiency in the ‘Net-Zero House’ at IFA 2023. Designed for a more sustainable life, the company’s latest kitchen, laundry and living solutions respond to the growing need to reduce power consumption, running costs and environmental impact.

LG’s new front-loader washer and dryer pair gets laundry clean and dry without running up the power bill; the washer boasting an A-40 percent energy rating1 and the dryer a A+++-20 percent rating.2 The advanced washer promotes wardrobe and environmental sustainability with LG’s AI Wash, which intelligently selects the optimal wash cycle to provide 10 percent more fabric protection and help extend the lifespan of clothing.3 It even comes with a specialized cycle that prevents up to 60 percent of microplastics emissions from laundry cycles from entering the water supply.4

Meanwhile, the dryer’s AI Dry feature is able to detect laundry weight, fabric types and moisture content, setting optimized drying time and temperature for different kinds of clothing. Backed by LG’s Dual Inverter Compressor, the TurboDry function is an efficient option for getting laundry dry faster. Additionally, the new dryer uses R290 refrigerant, known for its low Global Warming Potential (GWP). For a convenient user experience, both the washer and dryer are equipped with an upgraded LCD touch control panel.

Energy Efficient Refrigerator With Strong Performance
Another highly efficient performer, the new LG bottom freezer refrigerator has an A-20 percent energy rating.5 The fridge is powered by the company’s Smart Inverter Compressor™, which provides impressive energy efficiency by adjusting speed to actual conditions, and comes with a 10-year warranty. Ultra-reliable, the compressor also generates less noise than any other compressor in its class6 meaning a quieter fridge and a more peaceful kitchen. To extend food freshness, LG’s LINEARCooling™ keeps temperature fluctuations within ± 0.5 degrees Celsius while DoorCooling+™ delivers fast and even cooling to every corner of the fridge.

Complete Cooking Package With Top Energy Efficiency

The A++ energy efficiency7 of LG’s new 24-inch (60-centimeter) built-in InstaView™ oven owes much to its enhanced insulators, optimized heating control and four-layered glass door; a combination that conserves energy and minimizes heat loss. LG’s InstaView technology also helps to preserve heat inside the oven, allowing users to check on their meal’s progress without having to open the door.

Incorporating the company’s power-saving Inverter Direct Drive Motor™, the LG QuadWash™ dishwasher provides A-10 percent grade energy efficiency8 and sparkling clean dishes. Wi-Fi-enabled, the sophisticated appliance can connect to the LG ThinQ™ app, allowing users to conveniently control and monitor operation, download new cycles and resolve minor issues with Smart Diagnosis.9
