[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Heung-soon] LG Uplus announced on the 14th that it will participate in the Ministry of National Defense's campaign to 'Find the Heroes Awarded the Korean War Medal of Honor' in commemoration of the 70th anniversary of the Korean War and the Month of Patriots and Veterans in June.


Approximately 4.6 million customers using U+tv will watch a public service advertisement produced by the 6·25 Medal of Honor Search Investigation Team between real-time channel programs before watching video on demand (VOD) until July 10. About 4.15 million LG HelloVision cable TV customers will also be able to view the campaign's public service advertisement until July 11.


Park Hyung-il, LG Uplus CRO (Chief External Relations Officer), said, "This year marks the 70th anniversary of the Korean War, and most recipients of the Medal of Honor are elderly, so time is limited. We hope that through U+tv, even one more hero can regain their honor as soon as possible."


Lee Nam-woo, Director of Personnel and Welfare at the Ministry of National Defense, emphasized, "We hope for active interest and participation from companies, including LG Uplus, in the 'Find the Heroes Awarded the Korean War Medal of Honor' campaign. We will fulfill the nation's responsibility by honoring the patriotic heroes who dedicated themselves to the country."



Citizens who wish to be recognized as awardees or bereaved families can check the list posted on the internet (Ministry of National Defense www.mnd.go.kr, Army www.army.mil.kr) and call the investigation team (1661-7625) to verify whether the medal was awarded.
