Entertainment company CJ ENM announced “K-culture Night at Academy Museum with KCON,” an event on July 31 at the David Geffen Theater at the Academy Museum that celebrates the 13th anniversary of KCON, the growing global cultural successes of K-content and the company‘s 30th anniversary.

The event will also feature a star-studded roster of Korean celebrities including multifaceted Korean American entertainer Eric Nam, dancer and choreographer CHOIHOJONG, K-pop stars such as LEE YOUNGJI and P1Harmony, global Japanese girl group IS:SUE and actor Yim Siwan, who recently starred in “Squid Game.”

CJ ENM has been at the forefront of the Korean cultural industry as a K-content visionary since 1995. The company has pioneered the expansion of K-pop’s global landscape through KCON, the world’s largest K-POP fan and artist festival.

KCON was first held in the United States in 2012 and has since been held in Japan, Hong Kong, Germany, United Arab Emirates, France, Mexico, Australia, Thailand and Saudi Arabia. In 2024, KCON LA attracted more than 5.9 million fans from more than 170 countries at the festival site and through digital platforms. KCON also made U.S. history with the first national primetime broadcast of a K-pop show with The CW Network.
