LG Group (slogan: "Life's Good") is a large South Korean chaebol (conglomerate), producing electronics (including domotics), mobile phones, and petrochemical products.
Created in 1947 as "Lucky-Goldstar", it assumed the abbreviated name of "LG" in 1995. Before then, many electronic products were sold under the brand name Goldstar, while some other household products (not available outside Korea) were sold under the brand name of "Lucky." The Lucky brand was famous for producing household cleaning products and laundry detergents in South Korea. Before massive industrialisation of South Korean society, the name Lucky was synonymous with toothpaste (similar to Kleenex referring to a facial tissue paper).
LG has made a joint venture and created LG-Nortel Network. Since 2001, LG has two joint ventures with Royal Philips Electronics: LG Philips Display and LG Philips LCD. Capstan Communications imports and distributes LG-Nortel Business Communication Systems within the UK market.
LG also has a joint venture with Hitachi, Ltd.: Hitachi-LG Data Storage, which manufactures optical data storage solutions like DVD-ROM drives, CD writers, etc.
LG has owned the LG Twins baseball club since 1989.

LG is likewise "fortunate Geumseong" (fortunate ??) in Korea, this is translated into English as fortunate Goldstar. until now then, many digital products have been bought below the kind call Goldstar, at the same time as another better half and young toddlers products (no longer obtainable exterior Korea) have been bought below the kind call of "fortunate."
