The CW Network to Broadcast KCON LA 2024

The CW Network is set to live stream the main stage concert at the CJ ENM-produced K-pop festival KCON LA 2024.

The event, airing on July 28, marks the first time a K-pop performance show will be broadcast live in prime time on national television in the U.S.

KCON, presented by Samsung Galaxy as the title sponsor, is set to take place from July 26 to 28 at the LA Convention Center, Gilbert Lindsay Plaze and Crypto.com Arena. The three-day festival holds a variety of fan activities and live performances during the day, before culminating with three nights of concerts presented under the M COUNTDOWN name, a popular weekly live performance program in South Korea run by CJ ENM’s music channel Mnet.

“We are beyond excited to partner with The CW to bring the electrifying M COUNTDOWN at KCON LA 2024 live to national primetime television,” said Harry H.K. Shin, head of music entertainment at CJ ENM. “This historic broadcast is a testament to the incredible community of K-pop fans who have made these groups global sensations.”
