GFRIEND, one of the hottest new girl groups in K-Pop, will be performing in the US for the first time at KCON Los Angeles. Their latest track “Rough” took over music charts earlier this year, earning the group an amazing 15 music show wins.

Having performed at last year’s event, Block B will be returning to KCON Los Angeles for another year. As they are set to make their comeback in just a few days, they will definitely have new music prepared.

KCON 2016 New York is scheduled for June 24-25 at the Prudential Center while KCON 2016 Los Angeles will take place on July 29-31 at the Staples Center and Los Angeles Convention Center.
