What is KCON?
"What is KCON, you ask? KCON is the first convention dedicated to “All Things Hallyu”. The convention was created so that fans could have the opportunity to interact with Korean entertainment and culture as a community. What makes KCON a wonderfully special event? It gives our fans the valuable experience of interacting with each other and established artists in a fun, personal fashion.

With over 20,000 fans in attendance, KCON 2013 was a landmark event that smashed all expectations. KCON 2014 is set to be even bigger than last year, bringing the fans even more stars, more panels, and more hi-touches! – more of everything that makes KCON the largest fan convention in North America for Korean pop culture and the yearly epicenter for All Things Hallyu.

Even after KCON, our social media platforms are a place where fans can get the latest Hallyu news and engage with each other. If you asked us, why we created KCON, we would say that we created it for the fans. It makes our heart boil over with happiness to see our Hallyu community grow. Our Sincere thanks to all of the fans, artists, and sponsors that make KCON the most special event year in and year out." (KCONUSA)

Are you planning to come? If you do we must meet up for sure :) I met Rosie and her mom last year. We hung out for a while and it was really nice meeting them. Both Laugarza and I are getting seats together. We are planning to get the combo package in P2 which has both standing and seated, we are going for the seated since we don't want to be in the pit with all the crazy fangirls lol. I can't wait for this year since its going to be 2 concerts so double the artists :D
yup i'm coming! Booked plane ticket from 8/8-8/13. i'll be rooming with rosie and her family until they leave and then staying at my friends place for another 2 night :) i wasnt looking at P2 at all until i found out P2 have seats so now I'm looking at the P1 combo or P2 seat combo I think Rosie was looking at the P3 combo

Yay that's awesome news we'll finally get to meet each other :) It will be a little MDL get together. Have you been to LA before?
Yeah I really want to get P1 but I just don't want to stand during the concert after walking around all day. I'm just going for P2 and hope i get lucky to get a hi-touch or something.
