LG Magic Remote MR21GA

originSüdkorea

The product shown is the LG Magic Remote (model MR21GA), which was introduced in 2021 as a sophisticated control interface for LG's WebOS Smart TVs. This remote is distinguished by its "point-and-click" functionality, scroll wheel, and dedicated hotkeys for popular streaming services like Netflix, Prime Video, and Disney+.

LG Electronics is the company behind this product, a global leader in consumer electronics headquartered in Seoul, South Korea. The brand has a deep history, originating from the merger of Lak Hui Chemical (founded in 1947) and GoldStar (founded in 1958). While the brand's heart remains in South Korea, its manufacturing is highly globalized. Most LG remote controls are produced in China, though the parent company maintains over 200 manufacturing units worldwide, including facilities in Mexico, Poland, and Indonesia to serve regional markets.

As of 2026, LG Electronics remains a cornerstone of the LG Corporation, one of South Korea's largest chaebols (conglomerates). The company is independently managed but remains under the ultimate ownership of the LG Corporation, which oversees a vast portfolio ranging from chemicals and telecommunications to advanced electronic displays.
