      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.

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.

      I have read a few comments here about sound bars, but did not see much that is fairly new. We just bought an LG 75qned85t TV and would like to add an external sound bar. The reviews we have read so far are pretty discouraging until you get up over $500 or so. Are there any less expensive ones that will improve the sound significantly? It is a bit disappointing to spend this much on a TV and have sub-par sound. TIA. john

      2024 is a special milestone for LG Electronics in Australia and New Zealand, raising a glass to 30 incredible years of innovation, happy customers and serious growth. From humble beginnings as Lucky Goldstar back in 1994, LG Electronics Australia and New Zealand has come a long way, now established as a global consumer technology powerhouse, all thanks to the amazing support of customers and staff. From 24 staff members in 1994 to over 300 today, the LG Electronics Australia and New Zealand team dedication has been pivotal to the company’s growth.

      Driven by innovation, LG’s 30-year journey has been packed with world-firsts and innovations across various industries. From IT products such as UltraWide and curved monitors that revolutionized the gaming industry, to the lightest laptop that made working on-the-go a breeze, and the smallest projector that turned any room into a home theater. And let’s not forget about LG TVs. LG’s leadership in OLED technology has brought breathtaking picture quality that delivers vibrant colors and perfect blacks. We’ve also been busy in the kitchen with the InstaView fridges that let you peek inside without opening the door, while UVnano technology brings a whole new level of hygiene to the home. And who could forget about our game changing TwinWash and WashTower designs that have made laundry day a whole lot easier.

      At a celebratory event for LG employees, LG staff were brought together to reminisce about the company’s incredible 30-year journey in Australia and New Zealand. With a mission to make life better through technology, LG’s Life’s Good mantra – which originated in Australia in 1999 – perfectly captures the Aussie spirit, and the reinvigorated brand promise in “Life’s Good with Optimism,” showcases how positivity can help in embracing a brighter, more positive future.

      The 30th anniversary celebration was a time to reflect on past achievements and look forward to the future with optimism. To commemorate three decades of success, LG organized a special event in Australia and New Zealand with activities designed to bring Life’s Good with Optimism amongst their employees to life. This included a video photo booth where staff could record messages and stories about what they’re feeling optimistic about. These personal reflections, focused on driving positivity among employees, were shared on social media with the hashtags #LifesGood and #OptimismYourFeed.

      As a customer-focused brand, LG is a passionate champion of optimism. This celebration encouraged employees to participate in the global “Optimism your feed” social movement to infuse positivity across our social media feeds and create positive changes by being intentional with our activities both online and in the real world.

      Overall, the 30th anniversary celebrations underscored LG’s dedication to fostering a culture of optimism and innovation in Australia and New Zealand, a physical example of actively bringing to life LG’s brand promise of Life’s Good.

      To further ignite optimism worldwide, LG Vietnam officially titled “An Optimism Universe.” The video features Phương Mỹ Chi, a famous Vietnamese singer and an ambassador for LG Vietnam’s local campaign.
      The song is a reimagined version of “A Universe with You (Vu Tru Co Anh),” Phương Mỹ Chi’s hit track which captivated the country’s youth on social media. Now, as the sound of LG Vietnam’s latest campaign, “Power of Z – Spread out the Optimism,” HIT music producer DTAP has remixed the melody with trendy and upbeat elements while retaining the original’s distinctive Vietnamese traditional folk elements. With relatable and meaningful lyrics, the song encourages Vietnamese youth to live in the moment and enjoy every aspect of their lives.

      The music video takes viewers on a journey across iconic landmarks of major Vietnamese cities, inspiring the younger generation to explore everything the country has to offer. Vibrant red hues and dynamic motion graphics jump across the screen for a visually stimulating experience that encourages viewers to join hands in creating a better future from the simple joys of life.

      “An Optimism Universe” delighted listeners from the moment of release, reaching an impressive 1 million views on YouTube within just 24 hours. The momentum continued, culminating in a total of 18 million views across all platforms in a mere 10 days.

      This theme song debuted at the Uni-tour of Saigon University in Ho Chi Minh City and the National Economics University in Hanoi, where approximately 3,000 students were met with a fun-filled playground of colorful experience zones organized by LG Vietnam.

      The first space, the Optimism Melody zone, presented students with the opportunity to express themselves through karaoke, enhanced by hands-on experiences with the LG StanbyME and StanbyME GO.

      Nearby, the Optimistic Hints of Tarots zone invited students to discover a unique, positive message revealed with a touch on the LG StanbyME screen.

      Students could share their event experience at the Capture Optimistic Moments zone to receive an optimistic framed photo, while the exhibition space at the Wall of Optimism zone showcased the students’ creative ideas to spread optimism to their friends, relatives and the community.

      In an effort to expand the reach of the Life’s Good brand mission, LG Vietnam also aimed to make a tangible difference in the community with practical support. Enriching cultural life and improving education in rural areas, the company joined hands with the Green Summer 2024 Campaign, an annual event organized by the Vietnam Student Association. Launched in 1997, the campaign provides students with leadership opportunities in social initiatives, including building roads, bridges and charity houses, as well as participating in educational programs to eliminate illiteracy and improve digital competency.

      LG Vietnam donated 27 LG TVs to the Green Summer campaign this year, nine of which were specifically designated for a community housing project in Dak Nong province. The remaining 18 LG TVs were given to remote schools to provide better teaching and learning conditions for both teachers and students.

      Vietnam’s “Power of Z – Spread out the Optimism” campaign reaffirms LG’s commitment to connecting with the younger generation and encouraging young people to approach life with an optimistic attitude, create a positive impact on the community and contribute to a better future for all.

      To spread the message to a wider audience, people can also share positive moments from their daily lives as part of LG Vietnam’s social media challenge with the hashtags #LifesGood, #TíchCựcLanToả and #NụCườiLanXa.
