LG, Glutánex and 38 Brands Recognized at 2026 Korean Consumer Awards

The 2026 Korean Consumer Awards ceremony was held on July 30 at The Plaza Hotel in Seoul’s Jung‑gu district. Organized by the Dong‑a Ilbo, the event honored 39 brands across various categories, including LG Electronics’ LG Whisen air‑conditioner, Nexus Pharma’s Glutánex skin‑care line, LG Uplus’s roaming services, GS Construction’s Z‑Home, and Pulmuone’s kimchi refrigerator.

Nexus Pharma’s Glutánex received the high‑end brightening cosmetics award for the third consecutive year, citing its 99%+ glutathione purity and the “Find Your Glow” brand message. The company noted rapid home‑shopping success, with its products selling out on CJ Onstyle and Lotte Home Shopping, and topping the mask‑pack category on Lotte’s mid‑year sales report. Glutánex plans to expand distribution through additional channels such as Hyundai Home Shopping and GS Home Shopping later in the year.
