This past weekend, June 23 and 24, the Korean Pop Culture world descended on Newark and left pretty much everyone shook. Marking the third year of KCON’s East Coast event, over 43,000 eager fans filled the seats of the Prudential Center and took in the sites of the nearby convention.
With Highlight and CNBLUE headlining the two nights of concerts, SF9, UP10TION, TWICE, NCT 127, Zion.T, KNK, and GFRIEND rounded out the two evenings full of a lot of very excited fans.
We love when groups unveil new material for the first time ever on the KCON stage and it’s honestly been a while since that has happened. Luckily for us, UP10TION gave us a huge treat as they opened the second night of the KCON concert with their newest release “Runner” for fans to enjoy. And enjoy we did!
What was your favorite moment from the weekend? Any special guests that really caught your eye?
