The prototype is equipped with LG home appliances including a refrigerator, microwave, oven and wine cabinet, all voice-controlled via the ThinQ On AI hub. The vehicle features a modular interior transformation system allowing configurations for sleeping, working and relaxing.

The exhibition runs from May 27 until the end of August 2026 at the Haevichi Hotel & Resort on Jeju Island. The vehicle is not yet in production, but the companies are in talks about commercialization. A commercial version is expected within one to two years. South Korea's camping market is estimated at 6–10 trillion won, with around 7 million camping enthusiasts. The project aims to promote the 'chabak' (car camping) lifestyle in Korea.

South Korean couple chooses camper van over second home

South Korean couple Hong Hyun-hee and Jay Seun, known for their YouTube channel 'Hong Seun TV', decided to replace buying a second home with renting a camper van for family trips. On July 24, their channel released a video showing them traveling to Yeongwol in a rented camper van with their son Jun-beom. The couple noted that a camper van allows changing locations and is more realistic than a second home. They plan to rent a camper van for 3–5 day trips to the sea and mountains.
