LG HelloVision announced on the 8th that its original human-interest documentary *The Women Who Stand Out* won the “Gender Equality Culture Content of the Year” award at the “2026 Gender Equality Culture Awards.”

The Gender Equality Culture Awards are sponsored by the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism and organized by the Women’s Culture Network (a non-profit organization) and Women’s News Co., Ltd. The awards recognize individuals, organizations, and content that have contributed to the spread of a culture of gender equality through creative work and activities in various fields, including culture, arts, sports, and tourism. “The Women Who Stand Out” received high praise for broadening social empathy by authentically capturing the challenges and lives of professional women who are breaking down prejudices and carving out their own niches in various corners of our society.

“Remarkable Women” is a flagship program of LG HelloVision that has shed light on the vibrant daily lives of women who are proactively forging their own paths without being bound by limitations such as gender, age, or region. Since its premiere in 2022, the program has run for a total of nine seasons over five years, establishing itself as a leading documentary series on local television.

In particular, the show resonated deeply with viewers by featuring 109 female professionals working with confidence and dedication across a wide range of fields—including traditionally male-dominated occupations such as subway train operators, ship welders, scrap yard owners, and delivery drivers.

The episode of “Remarkable Women Season 6” featuring an urban railway train operator (Ms. Park Seong-eun) garnered widespread acclaim for its authentic portrayal and surpassed 10 million total views.

Its performance on digital platforms was also remarkable. On LG HelloVision’s official YouTube channel, “Hello Life,” “Remarkable Women” recorded a single-video view count of 12.58 million, and the cumulative views across all seasons surpassed 125.9 million, demonstrating its influence beyond the platform.

Ryu Bok-yeol, Executive Producer at LG HelloVision, stated, “Thanks to the 109 protagonists who have steadfastly walked their own paths over the past five years and the viewers who have enthusiastically responded to their stories, we have received this meaningful award.” He added, “We will continue to wholeheartedly support women in their 20s and 40s who are striving hard in every corner of our society and will consistently contribute to expanding gender-equitable perceptions of careers and fostering warm social empathy through their voices.”

Meanwhile, LG HelloVision produces web variety shows such as “Fiery Junior” and “Ji Sang-ryeol’s Gills.” In addition, programs linked to regional channels—including “Taegun’s Singing Contest 4” and “Danggoljip 2”—are also available on YouTube and other digital platforms.
