Wha… Wha… What???

Okay, okay, okay. So I know it’s been about 19 million years since I last wrote anything. And to be perfectly honest, it’s feels pretty weird to be writing this now but HOLY HECKIN’ HECK, GUYS!!!

About three weeks ago, the members of ONE OK ROCK began posting cryptic photos on their Instagram accounts that seemed to hint very strongly about an upcoming concert. Of course, I spent a lot of time discussing what all of this might mean with some of my most devoted OORer friends, and it didn’t take long for us to decide that yes, this was going to be some sort of online concert. (Yeah, we’re super clever like that!)

Then about two weeks ago, the members (and all of OOR’s official SNS accounts) started posting this short video, confirming our suspicions that “Field of Wonder” would, in fact, be an online concert and that tickets were now on sale.

Naturally, I had to buy my ticket the second I finished watching that short little video of instant joy and death. (I don’t think I’ve ever purchased a ticket so quickly in my life!) Needless to say, I’ve been counting down the days until October 11th ever since. And yes, I do mean literally. Because I really am that pathetic.

Then yesterday, the members of OOR started posting a link to this little gem of a teaser video and DEAR SWEET BABY FLYING MONKEYS! Those 65 seconds have made me happier than I have been in freaking ages!

Now, I’ll be the first to admit that I am suffering from some very serious pandemic-induced concert withdrawals. So maybe my reaction to all of this is a bit more exaggerated than it might otherwise be. But honestly, considering the way this year has gone, having something to look forward to is a frickin’ godsend and October can’t come soon enough!

A CITY, A CONCERT AND A ZOMBIE

Group 2

Hey there everyone! I know I don’t have any of my regular Friday posts up this week and for that I’m sorry. I just wanted to let you know that I’m still here, I’m just slightly busy at the moment… Something about BTS being in my city… and a concert… and… Yeah. For those of you who may be headed to TRB tonight in Chicago, I hope you get all the winks and smiles and body rolls and fan-service you could every hope to have. I hope the amazing talent of BTS leaves you in awe and if you happen to shed a few tears of joy, know that you’re not alone. (Yes, sometimes even zombies cry when they’re happy.) If you’re at the concert tonight and you happen to see someone walking around with bright pink hair and glasses, looking so insanely happy she might actually explode, that would probably be me. I’d be more than happy if you stopped me for a second to say hi or squee over a bias or two… or three or four or seven… I’m always a fan of meeting new people and making new friends! Hope to see you there!

North America’s largest event for “All Things Hallyu,” KCON USA, has just announced an impressive lineup of top actors from both Korean and U.S. television and film has been added to their Los Angeles lineup, alongside the many top K-Pop artists which have already been announced.

Living up to its mission to bring fans the most comprehensive celebration of all aspects of Korean entertainment, KCON 2015 USA has just confirmed stars Kim Soo Hyun, Daniel Henney, Son Ho Jun and Ki Hong Lee will be participating in the Los Angeles dates of the event.

Beyond the appearance of these actors, KCON 2015 USA will also further spotlight drama on Saturday and Sunday sessions titled, “All That K-Drama with KOCCA.” These sessions, sponsored and organized by the Korea Creative Content Agency, will feature two of Korea’s hottest creative talents behind the camera, star writer Park Ji Eun (Producer, My Love From The Star) and top television director, Jin Hyuk (Master’s Sun, Doctor Stranger).

With these latest additions, KCON 2015 USA becomes one of the most star-studded events of the summer, with more than 90 celebrities, involved in both drama and/or music, scheduled to appear. The three-day convention taking place at the Staples Center and Los Angeles Convention Center will feature performances by: AOA, Block B, GOT7, Monsta X, Red Velvet, Roy Kim, SHINHWA, SISTAR, Super Junior, Zion.T & CRUSH while the one-day convention in New York will feature performances by: AOA, Girls’ Generation, TEEN TOP, and VIXX.

Last year over 43,000 fans of Korean pop culture traveled from around the U.S. to solidify KCON as a summer Los Angeles staple. Once again, K-entertainment fans will flock to both LA and New York to experience unforgettable concerts, panels, workshops, food, fashion and more.
