"KCON"
is the annual Korean music and culture convention that began right here in America. In 2012 Los Angeles held the first KCON festival, and since then has held one every summer. Many different K-pop stars travel from Seoul to attend. They hold fan engagements and perform their newest music at sold-out arena concerts. KCON also boasts a diverse convention floor, where Korean companies can hold booths and give out promotional freebies.
In the last five years, KCON has expanded internationally. In addition to L.A., in 2015 KCON was held in New York City; Saitama, Japan; and Jeju, South Korea. In 2016 the festival added Abu Dhabi; Paris; and Chiba, Japan.
