What does the abbreviation of the electronics company LG stand for?
Well, LG stands for Lucky Goldstar when two companies, Lucky and Goldstar, merged together. The company's tagline is "Life's Good" which originated afterward, so it is a coincidence that is also has the abbreviation of LG. LG Corp. is a conglomerate in South Korea that deals in the production of telecommunications products, chemicals and electronics. One of its subsidiaries, LG Electronics, is one of the biggest players in the world market for mobile phones and HDTV sets. In the market of mobile phones, it is the 3rd largest producer, making it one of the big dogs in the global mobile phone industry. This is why LG Electronics is the flagship company of the aforementioned conglomerate, LG Corp.

Life is good is the advertising - nasty question.

Again, a deceitful question. It means two different things. The question should ask what the original meaning was to be clear.

LG has become synonymous with the company's tag line "Life's Good".

Lucky Goldstar... "Life's Good" is their slogan... The company was formed when Lak-Hui (Lucky) Chemical Industrial Corp merged with Goldstar...

With so many commercials on TV, I got it right and stopped watching TV. I was getting brainwashed by commercial overload.

Well I knew that it was 'Lucky Goldstar' since I resided in Korea for a number of years. However these other I had to guess at. It still seems to me that the correct answer should be 'Lucky Goldstar' since this is the original meaning.
