[LG refrigerator door] The door gasket is hot. The front of the refrigerator is hot.

Troubleshooting

There is a heating wire (defrost heater) installed around the front perimeter of the refrigerator and the partition between the freezer and the refrigerator compartment to prevent condensation from forming.

After the installation of the refrigerator or during the summer season, the cooling motor (compressor) may operate longer which makes the fridge feel hotter.
Rest assured as it is not a product defect.
