      31.5-inch Surgical Monitor Boosts Convenience in the OR With Intelligent Features
      Including Preset Picture Modes and Instant Screen Mode Switching

      SEOUL, Sep. 11, 2025 — LG Electronics (LG) is launching its new 31.5-inch 4K surgical monitor, model 32HS710S. Designed to streamline surgical workflow, the monitor combines crisp 4K resolution (3,840 x 2,160) image quality with intelligent new features that prioritize user convenience and operational efficiency. The monitor has received 510(k) clearance from the U.S. FDA, confirming it can now be sold in the U.S.
      The 32HS710S introduces a range of workflow-enhancing functions to make it simpler and more intuitive for medical professionals to interact with visual data. For example, users can configure picture mode settings independently for each input source, helping to display images from multiple devices in a way that suits their needs. Dedicated hotkeys enable quick activation of preferred screen modes and Picture-by-Picture (PBP) layouts, facilitating adjustments with a single button press.
      The monitor’s 4K IPS display is designed to deliver clear, detailed images with consistent color across a wide viewing angle. It provides a typical brightness of 800 cd/m² and covers approximately 95 percent of the DCI-P3 color space. Compliant with the Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine (DICOM) standard, the monitor is a high-quality solution for displaying visual output from various medical imaging devices.
      To address the demands of the operating room environment, the 32HS710S employs durable glass with Optical Bonding, along with Anti-Glare, Anti-Reflection and Anti-Fingerprint coatings to help maintain image clarity under bright surgical lighting. The monitor is built with an IP45 rating for the front, IP32 rating for the back and IK06 impact resistance. Weighing approximately 9.2 kilograms, it can be mounted on a variety of surgical monitor arms.
      For operational continuity, the monitor includes a Failover Input Switch that can automatically switch to a backup source if the primary signal is interrupted. This key reliability feature is complemented by versatile viewing options, including 4-screen PBP and Picture-in-Picture (PIP) for monitoring multiple sources at once. The display also offers Mirror and Rotation Modes for the easy adjustment of image orientation, and Clone Screen output for training and collaboration purposes.
      “In developing the 32HS710S, we concentrated on delivering practical workflow benefits for surgical teams – for whom time and focus are critical,” said YS Lee, head of the IT Business at the LG Media Entertainment Solution Company. “By incorporating automated screen settings, one-touch controls and reliable backup systems, we aim to provide tools that can help medical staff maintain focus on patient care.”

      LG’s New Campaign Leverages Music – the Universal Language – to Foster
      Deeper Connections and Expand the Life’s Good Promise in Digital Spaces

      SEOUL, June 24, 2025 — LG Electronics (LG) today launched a new brand campaign, “Radio Optimism,” designed to help strengthen meaningful human connections and spread optimism through shared musical experiences. This initiative aligns with LG’s brand promise, “Life’s Good,” and addresses the growing challenge of forming genuine relationships in a technology-driven world.
      The Radio Optimism campaign seeks to counteract the disconnection often felt in an era dominated by superficial interactions, such as likes and comments on social media. By harnessing the power of music, LG aims to foster deeper bonds among individuals, promoting a more fulfilling life.
      “As technology advances, meaningful human connections become increasingly vital to enrich our lives. LG continues its commitment to bringing optimism into customers’ daily lives, staying true to our enduring brand promise of ‘Life’s Good,’” said Kim Hyo-eun, head of LG’s Brand Management Division.
      This campaign reinforces LG’s commitment to creating enriching experiences in digital spaces where today’s consumers spend significant time. Building on this mission, LG has continuously engaged with younger audiences through participatory campaigns that bring the Life’s Good philosophy to life. Last year’s “Optimism your feed” campaign leveraged social algorithms to foster positivity on social media. This new initiative specifically seeks to address the paradoxical disconnection in an era of hyper-connectivity.
      “One of the most reliable predictors of happiness is having deep and meaningful relationships,” said Jean M. Twenge, Professor of Psychology at San Diego State University. “Yet today, many people are spending more time online and less time connecting in person. Social media in particular tends to create shallow relationships rather than the deep connections people need. It’s common for people to have hundreds of followers but no one to talk to in real life if they need support. We need to build more meaningful connections with those around us. That might turn around the pronounced decline in happiness that’s occurred over the last decade.”
      A new global study* from LG on social connection reveals that 68 percent of people find it harder to make real friends, and a third reported having one or fewer meaningful connections in the past month, with 8 percent experiencing none at all. Inspired by traditional radio’s unique way of connecting people through music and storytelling, the Radio Optimism campaign transforms this concept into an interactive platform where participants can create and send personalized songs to their loved ones. Users can easily create new songs using AI-powered tools, which are thoroughly trained on a curated music dataset. These tools interpret user prompts to produce unique musical pieces and generate matching album art, providing an engaging and personalized experience. Once generated, these songs can be sent to recipients to deepen their connection and made available for others to discover worldwide.
      According to the survey, nearly 9 in 10 respondents believe that meaningful connections lead to a more optimistic outlook on life. By providing a platform for individuals to express their feelings, this campaign aims to foster deeper connections and help individuals enrich their lives while spreading optimism in their own ways.
      The campaign website is available in English and Spanish, with plans to support additional languages in the coming months to enable broader participation. The official website can be found at

      In today’s competitive world, having the freedom to create on your own terms is more important than ever. With that in mind, LG Taiwan recently introduced its latest IT lineup through a creative collaboration with renowned visual designer
      link hidden, please login to view – an initiative that celebrates the dynamic lifestyles of modern professionals.
      The showcase took place at a trendy café popular among freelancers, setting the perfect scene to demonstrate how LG’s technology fits seamlessly into both creative workflows and daily life.

      At the video editor’s station, LG highlighted high-performance tools designed for intense editing environments. The setup, resembling a professional post-production suite, featured the UltraGear OLED GX9 and the CineBeam S Ultra-Short Throw 4K Projector – demonstrating the depth, detail and precision of LG’s display technology.

      In contrast, the graphic designer’s space was bright, open and designed for maximum flexibility. With the LG gram Pro 2-in-1 and Smart Monitor Swing on display, this area showcased tools that offer creative professionals unmatched portability and versatility – ideal for capturing inspiration anytime, anywhere.

      Alongside the themed zones, guests explored a hands-on product and award showcase featuring the LG gram Pro 2-in-1, Smart Monitor Swing, CineBeam S and UltraGear OLED GX9. The display also spotlighted global honors from CES, Red Dot and iF Design Awards, reinforcing LG’s growing reputation as a leader in IT innovation.
      Opening the event, LG Taiwan Managing Director Jeong Yeon-kwan introduced the LG’s vision and philosophy of “Affectionate Intelligence” – an approach that puts people, emotions and usability at the center of technology. He emphasized LG’s commitment to creating solutions that don’t just perform, but connect with everyday human experiences.
      Designer Jyunccihli also took the stage to share how LG devices have helped elevate her creative process. From spontaneous sketching on the LG gram Pro to immersive design reviews on the LG Smart Monitor, she described how LG’s innovation continues to expand her artistic potential.

      Her newest trio of artworks – Spiral Nebula, Galactic Coordinates and Rotating Planet – draws inspiration from the cosmos and pairs with LG’s latest products: the LG gram, LG Smart Monitor, and CineBeam projector. Reflecting LG’s theme of “Light but Mighty,” the series fuses abstract celestial visuals with the spirit of innovation.
      “As with the universe, true lightness is not emptiness – it’s a hidden yet powerful force that upholds cosmic order,” says Jyunccihli. “To me, ‘lightness’ is a form of strength: intangible yet immeasurably profound, just like the universe itself.”

      To bring the creative energy to a wider audience, LG Taiwan launched the Creative Relay Challenge, encouraging the public to personalize designs using elements by Jyunccihli. Open to all, participants can use platforms like Instagram Stories to share their creations.
      Submissions are open through June 30, with selected entries eligible for exclusive prizes and the chance to be featured on LG Taiwan’s official platforms.
