Dramabeans at KCON 2013!

Heads up for all of you in the LA area (or who are willing to travel to the LA area in the name of K-pop, which we fully endorse as a worthy endeavor): Dramabeans will be speaking at a panel about dramas at KCON 2013!

KCON, in a nutshell, is a large-scale convention and concert dedicated to “all things Hallyu,” now in its second year (apparently 10,000 fans showed up last year). It will be held this year on August 24-25 (Saturday & Sunday) and features panels and workshops planned over both days, capped off with a concert Sunday night. The lineup as it currently stands is: G-Dragon, 2AM, EXO, f(x), Teen Top, and DJ Koo.

The drama panel girlfriday and I will be at will be held on Saturday morning (11:30 AM) and is hosted by your friendly neighborhood drama-crack-provider Viki. (Thanks, Viki!) And wouldn’t ya know, Viki is currently hosting a ticket giveaway, so enter over there to win free admission.

Or, buy your own tickets at Ticketmaster. Note that you buy one ticket that’s listed for the Sunday concert, but it’ll get you in to both convention and concert, Saturday and Sunday.

 
So, details in handy list form:

  • Who: Us! That’s javabeans and girlfriday on the drama panel, with gummimochi and HeadsNo2 also in attendance (though we can’t vouch for their whereabouts as they may or may not be busy stalking G-Dragon, ahem).
  • What: KCON 2013
  • When: August 24-25
    K-drama panel: August 24 (Saturday) at 11:30 AM
  • Where: Los Angeles Memorial Sports Arena
  • Why: BECAUSE WE SAID SO.

For more information, be sure to check out the official website at Kconusa.com.

Eeeeek, I want those tickets! Give me a reason to finally take some time off work and fly to the west coast.

Thanks so much for this information Dramabeans!

I hope you guys can start posting Kpop/Kdrama/Kcon, anything Korean entertainment related, events (nationwide) on here. I'm really bad at looking for these things myself and don't get any news in the middle of nowhere (Midwest) very regularly or timely.

So cool! I don't live in LA, and frankly, I'm afraid at the number of Exo fans and VIPs who will be there, but KCON sounds like fun.

Why is this happening to me???!!! I'll be in Atlanta on vacation that whole week :-(. If I didn't have my plane ticket already...smh This is a KCON-spiracy. I need more k-pop in Florida immediately.

22 years of my life, part of countless awesome fandoms, and stuck in part of asia WHERE NO FANDOMS VIRTUALLY EXIST!

ALL THE CONVENTIONS I HAVE MISSED OVER YEARS!

Life sure does laugh at you.

I should consider myself lucky if I find a Real Life person who have seen atleast 1 K-Drama! :(

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!! WAEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE! Why that wkend!?! I won't be in town. TT _ TT

I want to sneak my way into JB's and GF's trust circle then secretly record JB and GF when they start to get tipsy to validate how cool and fun they are in those podcasts. Oops, did I exploit my ploy? Haha~ You both are safe. XD

I'm going! Still sorting out travel plans, and I'll be doing this solo. Would love to connect with other DB follks--should we wear flowers in our lapels, or some other sort of secret sign to introduce ourselves? ;)
