LG Electronics unveils 55-inch LCD-TV
The leading Korean home appliances maker unveiled on Monday its 55-inch LCD-TV, which it claims to be the world's largest.
The HDTV-ready TV-set is based on a thin film transistor-liquid crystal display (TFT-LCD) panel and is equipped with a set-top box for receiving digital broadcast. Demonstrated today at the LG Twin Tower in Seoul, the TV-set is the first over 50-inch LCD-based product that is soon to hit global market.
Woo Nam-kyun, president of the firm, said, "The core technology for digital TV transmission technology for North American standard is owned by LG Electronics... If semiconductors and handsets have been an export engine for Korea, from now on, digital TV would take on that role," writes Chosunilbo.
