Last year, LG Vietnam made waves in the gaming scene by introducing the Life’s Good Tournament, which was the first and only local area network (LAN) party gaming tournament in Vietnam. This premier League of Legends (LoL) competition in Vietnam attracts talented teams from across the nation, who compete through several qualifying rounds to reach the grand final held at Another Saigon by LG, brand experience space in Ho Chi Minh City. 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,

Furthermore, the Centrifugal Chiller provides a reliable supply of chilled water with support from LG’s bearing protection and fast recovery features. Demonstrating LG’s commitment to staying ahead of changes to international refrigerant regulations, the new model is available in variants employing low-GWP refrigerants such as R513A, R1233zd and R1234ze.
Located next to the HVAC booth, the Component Solutions booth highlights LG’s new lineup of compressors and motors. The company’s Scroll Compressor lineup has been expanded to target both the commercial and residential HVAC markets. By implementing innovative scroll compressor design and developing high-efficiency motors and advanced core technologies, LG continues its efforts to ensure the quality and safety of its solutions.
Moreover, the company is unveiling its comprehensive lineup of compressors for Cold Climate Heat Pumps (CCHP) at this year’s AHR Expo. LG has been working tirelessly with various HVAC manufacturers to produce advanced CCHP compressors and has participated in the U.S. Department of Energy’s Cold Climate Heat Pump Technology Challenge, where it showcased the exceptional capabilities and quality of its specialized heat pumps and compressor technology.
LG’s Component Solutions business will continue to invest in strengthening strategic relationships with major HVAC manufacturers. Through the continuous introduction of innovative technologies that anticipate market shifts, LG aims to reinforce its position as the industry leader in HVAC components.
