There are so many things that people haven't realised until now, like how T-shirts got their name, what ASOS stands for, and the real meaning behind the word turquoise.
Some popular logos even have hidden meanings within them - and people are just realising that LG is one of those brands.
It's another clever secret meaning that has been doing the rounds online, but this time, it's one that's hidden in plain sight.
The LG logo is one that's instantly recognisable thanks to its big red smiley face, placed next to the letters LG. But it has more meaning than just that.

'I don't want children staying up late at weekends - I really need adult time'
And there's a reason behind the sneaky addition to the logo - according to experts, it's to make the brand seem friendlier, so people feel more connected ith it.
As reported by The Sun, the pros said: "These hidden messages help LG to appear more approachable and inviting."
LG have shared more information about the meaning behind their branding on their website, agreeing that their 'symbol' is all about creating a relationship with their customers.
But they claim that there's so much more to it than just that.
"LG is the brand that is Delightfully Smart. 'Life's Good' slogan, and futuristic logo are a great representation of what we stand for," their website reads.
"Global, Tomorrow, Energy, Humanity and Technology are the pillars that this corporation is founded on; with the capital letters L and G positioned inside a circle to centre our ideals above all else, humanity.
"The symbol mark stands for our resolve to establish a lasting relationship with, and to achieve the highest satisfaction for our customers."
They continued: "The letters 'L' and 'G' in a circle symbolize the world, future, youth, humanity, and technology. Our philosophy is based on Humanity. Also, it represents LG's efforts to keep close relationships with our customers around the world.
"The symbol mark consists of two elements: the LG logo in LG Grey and the stylised image of a human face in the unique LG Red colour.
"Red, the main colour, represents our friendliness, and also gives a strong impression of LG's commitment to deliver the best.

"Therefore, the shape or the colour of this symbol mark must never be changed."
