There have been a lot of televisions touted as the sexiest TVs of all time. It’s all just a gimmick but the TV manufacturers of course want to get as much of an advantage as they can—even if just through marketing.

And the South Korean tech company is calling it the “most seductive TV of all time.” What makes it seductive? They’re making a giant curved 4K TV.
