Day 1 of KCON LA was the opening day setting a tone for the rest of the convention and it was a good one! Fans were auditioning for the MCountdown Dream Stage with Taemin while Acts like ZB1 and Kep1er were performing at the Meet and Greet stage. 

ZB1 later interacted with attendees and fans at the CJ Connecting Stage playing games with ColorGram products. DXMON met and danced with fans using a dance game at Gilbert Lindsay Plaza, inviting fans to come up to the same stage as them to possibly win against their favorite idols.

In the afternoon, INI, a Japanese boy group, wowed the KCON Stage with hits and fan favorites bringing all the energy to their performance. Jo Yuri a kpop trailblazer after leaving IZ*ONE sang some of her biggest hits pleasing the whole crowd that came to see her. DXMON later added to the excitement at the CJ Connecting Stage with the KCON Games while celebrating one of the members birthday together with fans. P1 Harmony brought the entire convention to the KCON Stage where people were screaming “Back Down” and more word for word as if they were on tour and everyone was here to see them.

After the amazing performance by Taemin and Dreamers to close out the show we had the most memorable close out to Day 1 of KCON LA 2024 Presented by Samsung Galaxy. More on www.kconusa.com
