"MMCA×LG OLED SERIES" KICKS OFF TO BRING DIGITAL ART CLOSER TO THE PUBLIC
SEOUL, South Korea, July 31, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- LG Electronics (LG) announces "MMCA×LG OLED Series 2025 –TZUSOO," the inaugural exhibition of a multi-year partnership with the National Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art, Korea (MMCA). This forward-looking project explores the creative possibilities at the intersection of art and technology – beginning with a large-scale digital installation by Korean media artist TZUSOO, on view at MMCA Seoul's iconic Seoul Box from August 1, 2025, through February 1, 2026.
The "MMCA×LG OLED Series" transforms Seoul Box – a soaring, publicly accessible space at the heart of MMCA – into a dedicated platform for contemporary media art. Each year, the series will present a new work by a leading contemporary artist, with LG as the title sponsor providing technical support to help bring ambitious artistic visions to life.
For the inaugural edition, TZUSOO presents "Agarmon Encyclopedia: Leaked Edition," a multimedia installation comprising the sculpture "Agarmon" alongside the two-channel video work "The Eight Spirits of Flesh." Known for her distinct voice rooted in digital-native culture and her explorations of gender and identity, TZUSOO engages themes of life, desire, and generative cycles through a hybrid of organic forms and digital avatars.
The installation is powered by 88 55-inch LG OLED screens, arranged into two towering media walls specifically designed to fill the Seoul Box space. With perfect blacks and vivid colors, LG OLED displays enhance the visual intensity of "The Eight Spirits of Flesh," immersing viewers in a world where digital creatures shift and interact across screens. The scale and technical sophistication of the installation mark a significant moment for media art at MMCA – and underscore LG OLED's digital canvas as a powerful and creative medium.
"It's an honor to support the first of many exhibitions of the MMCA×LG OLED Series by helping bring the artist's bold visual experiment to life through the immersive power of our LG OLED technology," said Kate Oh, head of Experiential Marketing at the LG Media Entertainment Solution Company. "We hope this series offers audiences a deeper, more sensory experience of contemporary art and expands the possibilities for how it can be expressed and appreciated by art enthusiasts on a digital canvas."
"As the first artist selected for the MMCA×LG OLED Series, TZUSOO's multifaceted spirit of experimentation vividly reflects the creativity and innovation this project aims to foster," said Kim Sunghee, Director of MMCA. "We look forward to this exhibition introducing new possibilities for contemporary art at the intersection of technology and artistic vision."

Another Samsung Galaxy S25 FE leak suggests an earlier launch
Ryan Haines / Android Authority TL;DR The Samsung Galaxy S25 FE could launch on September 19 in Korea. Last year, Samsung launched the Galaxy S24 FE globally a month before it launched in Korea, leaving us wondering if the same is possible this year, too. The Galaxy S25 FE rakes up only minor upgrades, with the most notable being its much faster wired charging. The Galaxy S25 FE is the next major launch expected out of camp Samsung and will conclude the S series launches of 2025. The phone is officially confirmed to launch soon, and a slew of rumors in the past few weeks have already highlighted the expected upgrades over last year's model. Now, a more recent report claims to reveal the exact launch date of the Galaxy S25 FE. Citing industry sources, Korean news outlet FN News recently reported that Samsung is expected to launch the Galaxy S25 FE on September 19. The outlet noted this date is specifically for the South Korean market, but leaves room for speculation about the global launch date. That is because while the Galaxy S24 FE launched globally in September last year, it wasn't released in Samsung's home country until November 2024. If Samsung follows the same route this year, we might expect an early launch in other markets. During its earnings call last week, the company also hinted at an 'earlier launch of the Galaxy S25 FE' but without revealing the exact date. If true, the shift in the launch date could allow Samsung to position the launch of the TriFold, which is slated to launch sometime in the second half of 2025. Besides speculations around the launch date, several rumors hint at the not-so-exciting upgrades that the Galaxy S25 FE could feature. It likely continues to have the same 6.7-inch AMOLED, 8GB RAM, and a 4,700mAh battery, all of which are identical to the last generation. Meanwhile, the 512GB storage variant could be dropped. Leaks also point towards a similar set of color options as before, although with more chrome around the frame and the camera rings. But Samsung is likely to upgrade the charging speed to 45W, add support for Qi2-compliant wireless charging, and use a slightly better selfie camera with a 12MP resolution. Among other expectations, the Galaxy S25 FE could be powered by an Exynos 2400 (or Exynos 2400e) chipset, but it might fall back on using the MediaTek Dimensity 9400 instead if it fails to produce enough yield.
