Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd. today announced the installation of its Outdoor LED Signage XHB Series<\/a> (P8) at the flagship location of Shinsegae Department Store in Seoul, South Korea.

Samsung\u2019s track record of success with digital signage spans prominent venues worldwide. In South Korea, Samsung provided the country\u2019s largest ever high-definition LED signage to Coex SM Town<\/a>, while transformative installations at New York’s Citi Field<\/a> and Houston’s Minute Maid Park<\/a> set new standards for in-stadium displays. At Citi Field, Samsung installed the largest scoreboard in professional baseball, featuring over 29,800 square feet of LED screens that immerse fans in the action from every angle. Similarly, at Minute Maid Park, Samsung\u2019s high-definition LED technology redefined the fan experience with massive outdoor displays and a dynamic new main scoreboard, all designed to enhance the excitement of the game.<\/p>\n

In Myeongdong, the new installation will not only host engaging advertisements and dynamic video content, but also transform into a breathtaking annual Christmas media fa\u00e7ade, creating a festive atmosphere for visitors.<\/p>\n

\u201cShinsegae\u2019s media fa\u00e7ade, beloved by global customers for the past 10 years, has now been recreated as Shinsegae Square. This transformation paves the way for it to become an iconic landmark of Seoul, making it not only a must-visit attraction but also a central hub for K-culture. We are excited to partner with Samsung to bring our customers unique experiences that blend heritage and digital technology,\u201d Shinsegae spokesperson said.<\/p>\n

Samsung\u2019s Outdoor LED Signage is renowned for exceptional performance in demanding environments, evidenced by award-winning deployments at iconic venues such as Inglewood, California’s SoFi Stadium<\/a>, which boasts the world\u2019s largest LED videoboard ever built for sports, and the Formula 1 Las Vegas Grand Prix<\/a>, where Samsung installed a 481-foot-long rooftop LED display in the shape of the F1 logo. As Myeongdong evolves into a global tourism destination, Samsung continues to lead with solutions that inspire and engage.<\/p>\n
