Byeong-koo Kim, SVP and head of the Medium Display Business Unit at LG Display, has been appointed as a Fellow of the Society for Information Display (SID), the world’s most prestigious display society.

Each year, SID selects only the top 0.1% of its members with outstanding research achievements as Fellows, based on recommendations from previously appointed Fellows and a rigorous committee review. Once appointed, SID Fellows hold their title for life.

Regarding the background of Mr. Kim’s selection as a Fellow, SID stated, “He was the first in the world to commercialize P-OLED for automotive displays using a Tandem structure, and he made significant contributions to the advancement of display technology by developing and popularizing high-performance IT displays such as foldables and In-Cell Touch.”

Kim has been involved in the display industry for the past 30 years, contributing to the development of new products and foundational technologies. He has been recognized recently for taking the lead in opening up the electric and premium automotive display markets through the development of Automotive P-OLED.

Most representatively, he developed automotive displays by applying a Tandem OLED structure with two layers of organic light-emitting materials to P-OLED. This not only boasts excellent durability with high luminance and long lifespan, but also enables design differentiation due to its use of a flexible plastic substrate.

Prior to this, Kim developed ultra-high-resolution LCD products with embedded touch sensors within their displays to achieve highly sensitive In-Cell Touch functionality. He also contributed to the commercialization of high-performance IT displays by expanding foldable technology, previously only applied to smartphones, to displays larger than 13 inches for the first time in the world.
