Throwback Thursday: KCON 2018 LA Lineup Part 3

KCON 2018 LA IS FINALLY HERE! Here is the last installment of Throwback Thursday that will get you hyped for the concert and convention! As you get settled in Los Angeles and get ready for this weekend, add these songs to your KCON LA playlist!

“JJan! Koong! Kwang!” - MOMOLAND

Thanks to the virality of MOMOLAND’s “Boom Boom,” the group’s popularity has soared through the roof this year. But those who are just getting to know the group may not know that this girl group has been around since 2016! Since their debut, MOMOLAND has always released catchy songs, and “JJan! Koong! Kwang!” is one of them. Once it plays, it’ll for sure get stuck in your head. Get ready to have your dancing shoes on as MOMOLAND will have you up and ready to go this year! What song are you looking forward to seeing MOMOLAND perform this weekend?

“Lollipop” - IMFACT

Another group that has been around for quite some time but remains an underrated group is IMFACT. This group, like MOMOLAND, has been around since 2016 and has quite the following behind them. This is the group’s first time appearing at KCON LA, and the crowd is surely in for a treat. “Lollipop” is the group’s debut single, which takes on the big-band/jazz sound mixed with upbeat and high-energy pop music. Thanks to its addictive nature, you can’t help but dance along to this song as well. If you haven’t had the opportunity to get into IMFACT, this is a great opportunity to get to know more about the group so that you can look forward to seeing them perform at KCON LA!

“WHERE U AT” - NU’EST W

NU’EST fans can get excited as NU’EST W is coming to KCON LA! While we are still patiently waiting for Minhyun to return to the group once the members of Wanna One have concluded their contracts, let’s throw it back to the sub-group’s debut “WHERE U AT.” Since their participation in Produce 101 Season 2, NU’EST’s popularity has soared through the roof and put them back on the map as a group with a dedicated fandom and immense talent. Unfortunately, for those who are attending KCON LA this weekend, we won’t have the opportunity to see all of NU’EST together on stage, as Wanna One and NU’EST are performing on separate days. However, soon enough Minhyun will return to the group and we can expect to see all five members of NU’EST together once more!

“Why Don’t You Know” - CHUNGHA feat. Nucksal

Closing out this week’s Throwback Thursday is soloist Chungha with her debut, “Why Don’t You Know.” While this soloist has only been around for a year, Chungha was part of the first Produce 101 season where I.O.I made a huge splash in the K-Pop scene. KCON LA will be the first time that Chungha will be performing as a soloist; the previous time she performed was as a member of I.O.I. “Why Don’t You Know” is a great summer song that is light and refreshing—one to play while lying back with a couple of friends, catching the sunset. We’re curious to see if she will be performing her debut at KCON LA this year. Nonetheless, let’s get excited to see this soloist dominate the stage!
