Visiting LG Electronics in South Korea

About a dozen and half media people were invited here in South Korea today to visit several offices and plants by LG Electronics. We’ll be here for the rest of the week so expect a number of posts about our trip.

We’ll be touring and going around a lot so maybe I can squeeze in a few more posts than normal. I’m just checking my options if I can connect to their 3G networks here on top of the hotel WiFi.

Will also be sharing photos and HD videos of our trip and some inside look at LG’s factory and R&D facilities.

Check back soon for more entries about this trip. I’ve enabled global roaming on both my mobile numbers but they don’t see to work. Sorry if I can’t reply to SMS, just email.

Disclosure: LG Electronics sponsored this trip including accommodations, fares and daily stipend.

Wow, must be nice there. I saw your twit about this, and I twitted (half in jest)that an LG HDTV would be a nice prize for the next round of the Yugatech Give-away promo.

So how about it, sir Abe? Hahehe!

Really complied with the Disclosure clause, huh. But no amount, Haha! Jukjuk! Have a nice time, sir Abe. Just don’t lug home so many LG devices. And yes, you can always give them away as prizes anyway.

Ciao!
