In 1959, Goldstar produced Korea's first radio, opening a new era for the nation's electronics industry. In the early 1950s, LG had already established the foundation for its two major sectors-the chemical and electronics businesses-thereby leading the development of Korea's industries.

Its new visions are to develop a corporation where employees reach their full potential, shareholders maximize their value, and consumers are satisfied and touched emotionally.
