Whether it's for a functional purpose such as saving space or for cosmetic reasons, LCD TVs, including those made by LG, can be mounted to walls, cabinets, doors or any other flat surface. In order to do this, however, you will have to take the base off of your LCD TV. Fortunately, removing a base from an LG LCD TV is a task easily completed with one tool and by one person--unless the TV is too large for one person to lift.
