Franklin Planner Phone
This full touch phone is the first in the world to have an electronic 'Franklin Planner' which has been evaluated as the most idealistic time management tool. A variety of hot keys increase the usability of the planner functions and the PC sync-type enables integrated time management between the mobile phone and a PC.
It is expected that Korea's first full touch phone, with a wide and clean 3-inch AMOLED screen and its slim and luxury design will upgrade the mobile phone to a successful time management tool.

Touch Lighting Phone
This touch lighting phone (Model: SH-470) has luxury tempered glass and an LED keypad. It has an 'inner lid' so it doesn't have any slits on the side and a minimized gap on the top and bottom. It is very slim, only 10.9mm thick, and has very simple design.
The visual effect is maximized by emitting lights of various colors when the user touches the touch pad in the bottom. Moreover, it shows various patterns on the LED screen such as arrows or checks along with the finger movement. In particular, it has reduced battery consumption since it has an illumination sensor to control the screen brightness depending on the external environment.

LCD TV (New Scarlet)
New Scarlet is an LCD TV with a secret speaker to highly improve its sound quality.
When the TV is turned on, the red light "Secret Speakers" on both sides turn on. The sound system is 50 watts with 3.1 channels of powerful cubical sound and is tuned by the master of audio sound, Mr. Mark Levinson.
The sliding-type speakers make the TV 'fun to turn on' because it goes through a "transformer" that changes the external appearance of the TV. Also, it is full HD with 120 Hz live scan, and provides a clear image without any afterimages. The stylish design is enhanced by the red lines on the bottom and side.

LG's own Virtual Sound Matrix (VSM) technology makes a 5.1 channel sound like the much fuller 10.1 channel stereo sound.
With an application of the full HD 1080p upscaling technology that improves image quality, this product transforms the SD (480i) images of conventional DVD content to six times clearer, full HD-like (1080p) images.
