K-Con Madness

Went to K-Con and let me tell you it was amazing!.....well kinda

If I had to rate the WHOLE convention experience it would be.....5/10

Cons/Bad:

  • Pre-order stuff (I pre-ordered B.A.P and Exo-m stuff). The line for pre-ordered merchandise started at the top of a flippin' hill. 10 mins into the line some staff is telling everyone that they've completely sold out of BAP stuff (which is utter BS). Everyone was disappointed & extremely upset. When I pre-order stuff I effin' expect people to set aside that s**t because that's what pre-order means!
  • False Advertising: The con said that artist would sign stuff for the fans. Making everyone think that all the con goers had a fair chance to get stuff signed However, without any notifcation, the staff announced that you needed a voucher to get stuff signed, only a 100 people can get one and they're passed out randomly. I wasted 1 hour hunting down every staff member to see if they had a voucher. The staff themselves didn't even know what was going on!
  • Crazy fangirl madness: Artisti signing was in a small- tent and everyone was on top of one another. Lots of pushing and shoving (I even got clawed at) Almost got trampled. IT WAS HOT AS HELL IN THERE!!!! Loud fangirls screaming everywhere, thought I was gonna go deaf. Really disrespectful fans, bad way to represent the fandom.
  • Stupid Convention Rules: Convention rules stated that there would be no re-entry for the event. If you leave you CANNOT go back in. So I had  to stay in there for 11 hours. Stupid as hell rule, couldn't charge my phone or go back to the hotel to take a shower. So, yeah I smelled the whole day.

Pros/Good:

  • Concert: Amazing experience, crowd was really excited and wild
  • Interaction: Met some amazing people (which is the whole point of the con, meeting new people with a love for KPOP)

Overall:

-Staff and organization = terrible 

- Overpriced food

-Concert made up for it

-Staff underestimated the power of KPOP fans and they got hell

Moral: DO NOT UNDERESTIMATE THE POWER OF KPOP!!!
