World Water Day, observed every year on March 22, serves as a reminder to all of the importance of clean drinking water. It brings attention to global challenges such as water scarcity and pollution, advocating for collective efforts to ensure universal access to safe water. At the forefront of this mission is the LG Water Science Lab, dedicated to developing solutions that help provide customers with the highest quality water. In honor of World Water Day, this article takes a look at the essential work of the lab’s passionate and highly-trained experts, known as “water sommeliers.” A Water Sommelier’s Daily Routine: The Science of Taste Dedicated to making a real difference, LG’s water sommeliers analyze the taste and quality of water with the same level of precision as wine sommeliers evaluate wine. Their role is to ensure that water from LG’s premium water purifiers and filtration systems is as safe and refreshing as possible. The Water Science Lab’s water evaluation process begins with meticulously prepared samples to prevent contamination. Given that water’s flavor and scent can be influenced by the slightest changes in the testing environment, water sommeliers avoid heavily seasoned foods, alcohol or cigarette smoke before testing. They conduct “blind” sensory evaluations to assess water taste and use state-of-the-art equipment to analyze water components for impurities. Beyond sensory evaluations and quality analysis, their responsibilities include product research and filter development, contributing to the advancement of LG’s filtration technologies for consistently pure and great-tasting water. LG’s Water Research: A Passion for Safer, Better-Tasting H2O LG employs scientifically-proven methods to safeguard the water quality provided by its purifiers, including those in other LG appliances such as refrigerators. While the primary focus is on filtration systems, research also encompasses water composition and impurity analysis, crucial for optimal performance across various appliances, such as preventing water spots on dishware in dishwashers. Certified by the Korea Laboratory Accreditation Scheme, the LG Water Science Lab conducts thousands of tests annually to verify water safety and taste. The lab utilizes the latest technologies to detect harmful substances at microscopic levels (0.001 parts per million) and ensures compliance with industry safety standards. Collaborating with leading experts and international organizations, LG is doing its part to address emerging water quality challenges. The lab has developed its own testing protocols for precise evaluation and continuous improvement of filtration technologies. Through extensive research and a global network of water specialists and scientific advisors, the lab has established itself as a world-class authority in water science. The Water Science Lab also collaborates internally with LG departments that develop water-related solutions, sharing insights to enhance product performance. “Delicious Water” Through Expertise and Innovation The taste of water is influenced by its mineral composition, affecting flavor, mouthfeel and finish. To ensure a refreshing and neutral taste, LG continuously refines its purification systems, balancing beneficial minerals while eliminating unwanted odors and flavors. LG tailors its filtration systems according to regional water quality and customer feedback, constantly reevaluating and fine-tuning filters for improved consistency. The lab plays a key role in defining and delivering “delicious water.” By analyzing regional water quality and collaborating with certified water sommeliers from the Korean Water Sommeliers Association, LG has created a comprehensive water quality map. Via regular testing, the lab helps guarantee that water from LG purifiers matches the taste preferences of its customers. Innovating Water Filtration for a Sustainable Future LG Water Science Lab’s research goes beyond taste profiling to address broader water quality issues. Traditional reverse osmosis systems, commonly used in regions with high water hardness and turbidity, are known to generate significant wastewater. To address this, LG has developed direct-flow filtration systems that eliminate contaminants while reducing water waste, preserving essential minerals and ensuring a stable and efficient supply of water. As global water challenges intensify, LG remains committed to monitoring conditions and leading the future of water purification through innovative technologies for cleaner, safer drinking water. # # # View the full article

To deliver innovative heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) solutions that are Ahead of the Expected, LG continues to push the boundaries of heat pump technology in cold climates. At AHR Expo 2025 in Orlando, Florida, the company showcased its energy-efficient solutions that enhance comfort while hosting a special roundtable on the Consortium for Advanced Heat Pump Research and its vision for the industry. Three LG representatives joined the consortium to bring their knowledge and insights to the table. As climate change continues to cause major disruption around the world, the need for high-efficiency heating and cooling systems for all temperatures has been rising. Steve Scarbrough, senior vice president and general manager of LG Air Conditioning Technologies USA, joined the panel to highlight the advantages of LG’s heat pump technology in extreme climates. LG offers a wide lineup of heat pump solutions, including water heaters, boasting its cutting-edge inverter heat pump technology. What’s more, with the introduction of a highly efficient, oil-free inverter centrifugal chiller, LG now supplies 259,000 RT of chilled water to one of the largest data centers in the world. “We are excited to bring new products to market that are customized for all kinds of environments from single small spaces to large-scale industry settings,” said Scarborough. Although heat pumps have traditionally been associated with warmer southern climates, LG’s introduction of its Inverter Compressor to the U.S. has allowed it to build a strong lineup of heat pumps that provide effective heating in cold climates. Moreover, LG has expanded its LGRED° (Reliable to Extreme Degrees) Heat Technology to more products, facilitating high-efficiency performance under more challenging conditions. LG has successfully constructed substantial networks in heat pump solutions by investing in research and development and strategic partnerships with key industry players. For example, LG established the Consortium for Advanced Heat Pump Research with the University of Alaska network in 2023 to conduct real-life research and testing on various types of heat pumps. Sunwoo Kim, professor of Mechanical Engineering at the University of Alaska Fairbanks, said the consortium focuses on minimizing thermal resistance in the outdoor unit’s heat exchanger to maximize heat pump efficiency. Researchers are also trying to uncover innovative ways to integrate heat pumps with existing fossil fuel boilers. “If we have a smart and well-designed hybrid system that optimally balances the heat pump with existing traditional systems, we could significantly reduce costs and carbon dioxide emissions,” said Kim. The University of Alaska’s cold climate heat pump labs in Anchorage opened last December, and is now testing heat pump applications in the real world. The partnership with the Universities has already borne fruit. For instance, the first joint project with the University of Alaska Fairbanks has been largely credited for the LG Residential Cold Climate Heat Pump, which won the 2025 AHR Innovation Award. “The consortium aims to become the major hub of research and education in cold climate heating systems,” said Getu Hailu, associate professor of Mechanical Engineering at the University of Alaska Anchorage and faculty advisor for ASHRAE and ASME. By constantly promoting deeper discussions to realize its vision for heat pump solutions, LG has once again demonstrated its unwavering dedication to breaking down barriers in cold climate heating while underscoring its status as the leading innovator of heat pumps. # # # View the full article

The 2024 final, held on November 30, featured the top teams from four different regions: GENETIC ESPORT from Lighting Esport Complex, HST from OGE Stadium, 2 GAME ĐI VỀ from Unicorn Cyber and ALPHA MALE from Vikings. These cybernets are fully equipped with LG UltraGear gaming monitors, which provide the ultimate gaming experience with brilliant OLED displays. The grand final was graced by legends of the local eSports scene, including SOFM, Đức Mạnh, Clear and KillerQueen, who provided professional mentorship to the four teams. They shared their practical skills and inspired a competitive spirit in each competitor. After some of the most intense battles in the nation’s gaming history, GENETIC ESPORT emerged as the champion of the Life’s Good 2024 Tournament, followed by runners-up HST and third-place finishers 2 GAME ĐI VỀ and ALPHA MALE. “This is our second time participating in the Life’s Good Tournament and our team came with a solid plan to conquer the country’s best LoL teams,” said a player of GENETIC ESPORT. “Our outstanding performance in the final was inspired by our mentor, KillerQueen. We are extremely grateful to LG for creating a professional platform that allows us to compete with other talented teams while unlocking the full potential of our passionate eSports community in Vietnam.” This convincing victory was the result of tireless preparation and effort, earning the GENETIC ESPORT team a trip to Korea in December 2024. They have explored the heart of competitive League of Legends, visiting iconic locations such as LCK Park, the Gen.G Headquarters and LG GROUND220. The team also received a 45-inch UltraGear OLED Curved Gaming Monitor WQHD and vouchers worth 50 million VND. GENETIC ESPORT was already well-known to LG, having fought their way to an exhibition match against one of the world’s top LoL teams, Gen.G, during a meet-and-greet session at Another Saigon by LG. The Life’s Good Tournament 2024 gave participants the opportunity to experience LG UltraGear, a leading gaming monitor brand recognized for its unprecedented refresh rates and response times. Courtesy of the company’s cutting-edge OLED technology, LG UltraGear makes every scene – whether bright or dark – come to life with realistic details that take the gaming experience to an entirely new level. With a wide array of display solutions built for gamers, the LG UltraGear lineup has become the go-to gaming monitor brand in the local market. Since 2021, UltraGear has been the official partner of Gen.G, a leading eSports organization, further cementing its reputation for supporting high-level gameplay in this League of Legends-obsessed nation. Through various initiatives designed to foster Vietnam’s eSports community, LG hopes to elevate the local talent so that more local gamers can compete on the biggest eSports stages in the world. With the Life’s Good Tournament, LG Vietnam aims to deliver the value of Life’s Good to more Vietnamese consumers through its advanced gaming solutions and technologies.

LG is dedicated to enriching the lives of people in the communities where it operates. Recently, LG offices in Vietnam and Thailand made significant contributions by donating various LG products to support local initiatives. These acts of generosity underscore LG’s global commitment to corporate social responsibility and demonstrate the positive impact a company can have when it invests in the well-being of its local communities. In Vietnam, the Lunar New Year, or Tet, is a time of family reunions and shared experiences, with television playing a central role in these celebrations. To enhance the Tet experience for the people of Yen Bai Province, LG Vietnam donated 40 LG TVs to families who suffered significant losses during Typhoon Yagi. As part of its annual campaign, “Tet Nha la Tet Nhat” (Family Tet is the Best Tet), LG Vietnam extended support to 40 households facing severe hardships, including families of war veterans and those with meritorious services to the revolution, in the districts of Van Yen, Luc Yen and Tran Yen. No district suffered the wrath of Typhoon Yagi more than Van Yen, where the natural disaster destroyed vast areas, damaging, eroding or completely destroying countless houses. Large stretches of cropland along the rivers and streams were submerged in deep water, causing havoc to the lives and livelihoods of the locals. Last year, LG Vietnam operated mobile and stationary laundry stations to provide much-needed assistance to these people. Since Tet 2024, LG kicked off the “Tet Nha la Tet Nhat” campaign, named after the respected proverb “Tet Nhat.” “Tet” represents a meaningful time of year when Vietnamese people prepare the best for their families, while “Nhat,” meaning “best,” aligns with LG OLED TV’s global leadership and the world-class quality of its advanced products. The Year of the Snake marks 30 years of LG’s presence in Vietnam, symbolizing a deep commitment to continuous innovation and creative solutions for smart living. This milestone reflects LG’s dedication to improving the lives of Vietnamese customers and fulfilling its Life’s Good vision. In Thailand, LG recently donated 50 LG gram laptops to the Thailand Collaboration for Education (TCFE) program, an initiative of the Yuvabadhana Foundation. This donation, valued at over 2,301,000 baht (USD 68,000), will benefit over 400 students at Nikomphimaisuksa School in Nakhon Ratchasima province and Piyabut School in Lopburi province, both of which lack adequate computer equipment for effective digital learning. The donated laptops are high-performance, lightweight LG gram models equipped with Intel Core Ultra 5 Processors, making them ideal for modern AI software applications. Students in lower secondary school (Mathayom 1-3) will use these laptops to access digital curricula in science, mathematics and English. Upper secondary students (Mathayom 4-6) will leverage the laptops’ AI capabilities for advanced learning, including data analysis and enhanced comprehension. The TCFE program aims to reduce educational inequality and promote sustainable education in Thailand by focusing on four key areas: educational accessibility, teaching and learning quality development, life skills and moral cultivation and nutrition support. LG’s laptop donation directly supports two of these areas: improving access to education by providing equipment to remote schools and enhancing teaching and learning quality by enabling digital curriculum implementation. This donation reflects LG’s belief in the transformative power of AI in education and its commitment to ensuring all Thai youth have access to this technology. The company views this donation as part of its ongoing support for AI education in Thailand, which includes equipment donations, expertise sharing and future initiatives. From providing essential appliances to enhancing educational opportunities, LG Vietnam and LG Thailand are actively making a difference in the lives of those around them.
