After conducting his interview with the media, it was time for Jongup to head out and greet his fans at the K-Fun Day event. Even when we went early, fans had already begun lining up with their Matoki lightsticks to greet the idol. His appearance kicked off with the performance of “This, That, Shhh” as he had promised in his interview, and as he sat down to speak with fans for an additional interview, he was greeted by the passionate support of the fans in the audience.

A quick performance and interview wasn’t all that was on the table though. After sharing with the audience some of the fun things he did while in New York, Jongup also participated in several activities, including making kimbap for a few lucky fans and mixing cocktails. In addition, he ended with him picking a few lucky fans to take photos with, and allowing the audience to ask him questions, which ended with a quick performance from his viral appearance on Peak Time. He performed his last release “US” to close out the event.

It’s nice to see Jongup back in the states after so long, and the kickoff event gave fans a more intimate experience with the idol that we don’t get very often in the industry. If you live in the area, K-Fun Day was only the first event in a series coming to the Shops at Skyview. You can learn more information about the following events from a press release here.
