The marathon craze is sweeping the globe, fueled by the simplicity and accessibility of running, which requires little more than a pair of decent running shoes to embark on a journey toward a healthier lifestyle. Fully embracing this trend, LG offices worldwide are hosting “LG Life’s Good Run” events to inspire communities to come together and prioritize their physical health and fitness in fun and engaging ways.
Earlier this year, LG Thailand presented the

As an official sponsor, LG Thailand inspired the people of Thailand to take joy in exercising by running together in an environment that exudes positive energy. The event was hosted in collaboration with the Step Challenge Association, Thailand’s Department of Health, Thai Health Promotion Foundation, Athletics Association of Thailand and the Tourism Authority of Thailand (TAT) to set a new benchmark for international competition events. Attracting over 7,000 participants, “Kao Ta Jai 10K Thailand Championship 2024” garnered significant interest from health-conscious individuals and 500 LG members in Thailand participated in this marathon. The high level of engagement reflects a growing awareness among Thai people about the importance of taking care of one’s health and demonstrates how Life’s Good when the community gathers together to share the joy of exercise.
This marathon craze can be witnessed in all four corners of the globe, including another Southeast Asian country. In a remarkable showcase of community spirit and determination, LG Malaysia recently hosted its first-ever “LG Life’s Good Run” at Anjung Floria, Putrajaya. The event drew more than 3,000 runners, each one embodying the Life’s Good spirit through a shared journey of good health and positive, self-improving challenges.
More than just a race, the LG Life’s Good Run encourages pros and amateurs alike to embark on a journey of self-discovery, where every step brings them closer to the healthier, more fulfilling life they deserve. The children’s category has been introduced so that young runners can take on their greatest personal challenge yet, aiming to foster resilience and determination from an early age.
Prizes were awarded to the top three finishers across six categories: Men’s Open (aged 16–39 years), Men’s Veteran (aged 40 years and above), Men’s (Non-Malaysian) (aged 16 years and above), Women’s Open (aged 16–39 years), Women’s Veteran (aged 40 years and above), and Women’s (Non-Malaysian) (aged 16 years and above). The prizes included some of the company’s best-sellers, including the LG WashTower, 65-inch LG OLED TV and LG InstaView refrigerator.
The event also featured engaging side quests in the carnival area, a hub of excitement and anticipation. Captivating product displays, traditional Korean games and Instagrammable product zones were also set up, delighting runners and their support teams – friends and family – by making the whole experience even more unforgettable.
LG East Africa is also championing healthy lifestyles through a shared passion for running by joining its distribution partner, OPALNET, to aid this year’s “Standard Chartered Nairobi Marathon”, Kenya’s premier running event which attracts over 25,000 participants from across the globe every year without fail.
The added benefit of hosting a marathon is the opportunity to raise millions of dollars for several charities. The Nairobi Marathon donates large amounts of its proceeds to deserving initiatives set up to improve the lives of marginalized groups, such as people with disabilities, disadvantaged youth and women. The goal is to promote various educational, employment and community-enriching opportunities that wouldn’t be possible without a significant amount of funding.
The two companies presented KES 1.7 million (USD 13,000) worth of electronics to support the event, including five 65-inch TVs and eight XBOOM speakers to be used along the 42-kilometer-long course. Some products were even given as prizes to the winners.
This generous contribution was part of a wider sponsorship group, with LG and OPALNET joining 40 other sponsors to collectively raise a grand total of KES 173 million (USD 1.3 million), giving the event even greater meaning and influence in the region.
The large-scale marathon also helped consumers better understand the outstanding capabilities of LG products by experiencing their cutting-edge features firsthand. It was equally as beneficial for the local LG employees taking part, as they were able to directly contribute to Kenya’s sports culture and community development.
Finally, with running one of the fastest-growing hobbies in Korea, in large part thanks to the rising number of running clubs, a number of LG employees recently volunteered as pace makers for frame runners with disabilities at the “2024 JTBC Seoul Marathon”, one of the nation’s biggest marathons. The company also demonstrated its ESG vision of Better Life for All by participating in the marathon challenge for people with brain lesions.
With the running trend set to stay, LG’s recent initiatives have focused on strengthening the power of community and spreading the importance of bettering one’s physical and mental well-being.

Sharing “kitchen moments” on social media has become a global trend, connecting people from all walks of life. A quick search of #kitchendesign on Instagram reveals over 18.5 million posts, while #lifestyle boasts around 374 million posts, showcasing the modern kitchen as a hub of creativity, care and connection. In line with this trend, LG operates the Life’s Good Kitchen channel, a platform dedicated to kitchen lifestyle enthusiasts.
Examples of Life’s Good Kitchen “Special Goods”: apron, oven mitt, and eco bag set with embroidered patches for personalized style
The Life’s Good Kitchen channel is the ideal online destination for those passionate about the latest food and lifestyle trends. While embodying LG’s inspirational Life’s Good philosophy, it continues its mission of bringing people together, catering to individuals who may not be expert cooks but are keen on a simple and healthy lifestyle.
Instagram and TikTok, two of the most popular social media platforms, serve as a “global dining table” where users can explore diverse culinary cultures, seek cooking inspiration, and even make new friends. The Life’s Good Kitchen channel actively participates in this phenomenon, allowing gourmets worldwide to share their love for good food.
In October, the Life’s Good Kitchen channel launched the Cooking Challenge, an international campaign targeting TikTok users across Australia, Latin America, the Middle East and Asia. The campaign invites people to share their culinary experiences through two challenges: the Inspiration vs. Reality Cuisine Challenge (for beginners) and the LG Microwave Gourmet Cooking Challenge (for more experienced cooks). These challenges ensure that everyone, from novices to experts, can join in the fun. With over 5,000 participants so far, LG’s campaign has become a dynamic platform for food lovers to express their joy for cooking.
The Cooking Challenge, part of an LG brand campaign promoting the benefits of home cooking, aims to discover talented culinary creators (as well as those who perhaps have more ambition than skill). LG’s campaign fosters a diverse community of food enthusiasts, driving engagement with the Life’s Good Kitchen channel and creating brand fans who may consider LG products when upgrading their kitchen appliances.
The Inspiration vs. Reality Cuisine Challenge encourages participants to upload photos of dishes that didn’t turn out as expected, offering a lighthearted test for home chefs. Meanwhile, the LG Microwave Gourmet Cooking Challenge allows seasoned cooks to share unique recipes made with the LG NeoChef microwave, using special GIF stickers and the hashtag #LGCookingChallenge2024. The NeoChef microwave, powered by LG’s Smart Inverter technology, enables fast, precise cooking and heating, making it perfect for both culinary experimentation and everyday meals.
The Life’s Good Kitchen channel is a sensory playground for global food enthusiasts that features great recipes, helpful household tips and more
Launched on Instagram in July 2021, the Life’s Good Kitchen channel has grown into a vibrant global community of over 6 million followers across Instagram, Facebook and TikTok. The channel celebrates cooking experiences, culinary cultures and sustainable living, aligning with global trends and the interests of Millennials and Generation Z.
LG offers unique experiences with “LG InstaView miniature” and miniature cooking recipes
LG prioritizes customer-centered content, fostering meaningful interaction and engagement by avoiding direct product promotion and staying true to its Life’s Good philosophy. Initiatives like the Kreator program, which combines “kitchen” and “creator,” enhance LG’s ability to connect with people worldwide.
For years, LG has engaged customers through impactful campaigns. The 2021 Food of the Day campaign promoted health and well-being, while the 2022 Party Food with Playmobil challenge celebrated the joy of hosting gatherings post-pandemic. The 2023 Comfort Food Challenge allowed customers to share their favorite stress-relieving foods.
LG’s annual Global Cooking Challenge continues to connect with Millennials and Generation Z thanks to its relatable and engaging culinary themes
Through innovative TikTok challenges and curated lifestyle content, LG enables people to experience its brand philosophy and learn about its premium products in a fun, interactive way. The company will continue to deliver enjoyable brand experiences through diverse campaigns centered around culinary and kitchen themes, upholding the belief that Life’s Good.

Putting words into action is a critical component of LG’s Life’s Good motto. This has manifested itself across a wide range of activations in the U.S., most recently as part of LG Electronics USA’s partnership with the New York Yankees, one of the most recognized and successful sports franchises in the world.
As

Recently, LG expanded its partnership to include a cause-related component that will benefit the community around the stadium. This effort will support renovations at Elston Gene Howard Field, which sits across the street from the current Yankee Stadium on the site of the original Yankee Stadium. LG’s donation of USD 50,000 will assist in upgrades to the three ballfields at the location, which is utilized by the Bronx community and the Yankees’ Summer Night Lights program.
During an on-field ceremony at Yankee Stadium prior to the Yankees-Red Sox game on September 12, LG USA CEO Chris Jung presented a check to NYC Parks Bronx Borough Commissioner Jessenia Aponte and Administrative Parks and Recreation Manager Clinton Johnson.
“We believe in investing in the communities where we live and work. This collaboration with the New York Yankees enables us to improve these fields for the benefit of the youth of New York City,” said LG Electronic USA CEO Chris Jung. “Creating an environment where children can enjoy positive experiences helps ensure ‘Life’s Good’ in their community and provides a tremendous asset to their growth and development.”
“LG has been a tremendous partner, and they are employing that same forward-looking, collaborative spirit toward the Bronx community, which utilizes Elston Gene Howard Field extensively throughout the year,” said Yankees Senior Vice President of Corporate/Community Relations Brian Smith. “This donation will positively impact thousands of Bronx residents who rely on the park for exercise, recreation and team sports, including the children who participate in the Yankees’ Summer Night Lights programming. We salute LG’s contribution and look forward to seeing the benefits of their donation bear fruit for many years to come.”
Having just completed its second season, Summer Night Lights serves approximately 300 children and teenagers from the Bronx between the ages of 12 and 18 who take part in tournament-style, co-ed baseball and softball games on Tuesday and Wednesday nights throughout July and August. The program is designed to keep area young people engaged in recreation and character-promoting activities on summer evenings, when midweek organized activities for young people are difficult to find.
