This week Prince Mak tells us how to prep for KCON 2017 AUSTRALIA!! He says to get there early; it's open for a long time and you want to try everything. Wear comfortable clothes; you're barely sitting down so you want to make sure you're comfy. Stay hydrated. Expect long lines, especially for panels featuring celebrities - get there early so you're first in line. Go to the toilet before the concert starts because you don't want to miss anything! Stay safe and enjoy your time.
This week, we're getting hyped for KCON 2017 AUSTRALIA by talking about the highlights from KCON LA and New York. Highlights include Wanna One's takeover of the convention floor to meet-and-greet fans. GOT7 - they're antics on the red carpet, when Jackson and BamBam did the running man dance off stage, when the group closed out KCON LA bringing the whole arena to their feet. Heize's performance of 'Star' with an audience of stars, Girl's Day making their KCON debut and VIXX reminding us why they're KCON regulars all deserve a special mention too!

- K-Con coming to Australia - Trial run, what type of artists will come- Travelling as an idol isn't that glamorous- Idols can't go anywhere or do anything when travelling- Only rest they get is on the plane- Two break ups in K-Pop this week - How do idols find the time to meet (and date) people?- What happens after you debut- Can change direction if debut isn't a success- If success, no celebration, just how can you maintain that- A lot of pressure being an artist
